2023 Fluids

I'm getting different answers online when referencing fluid change guidelines.

What are you seeing as the recommended fluid change frequencies for front and rear differentials, as well as the transmission for the new Tundra?

Based on your personal experience, what frequency do you recommend and why?

Not sure but did my rear diff at 31k this weekend and the fluid looked terrible. Multiple metal chunks on magnet in addition to the fine shavings. Looking at the oil, I likely should have done it much sooner

 

These have been discussed, at length, in the past.

You can also look at the Toyota provided Warranty & Maintenance Guide that was included with your vehicle.

 

Did your differential sound okay, any whine coming from it??

 

No presenting issues whatsoever. Quiet and smooth. But the chunks were actual chunks which was a little unnerving.

 

30k for diffs/t-case...Im doing trans fluid at 50k. Always have, never hurt anything. If in doubt, just follow the "severe" or "towing" schedule in your owner's manual

 

Was just curious, my truck has a slight whine to it. Kind of crawls up my ass at times.

 

Would you be interested in documenting this for the community? Will you be pulling the whole pan or just drain and refill?

 

I pump fluid out the cooler and refill...no need to do a pan drop, just drain...fill...pump out and add back in. I can document it

 

Can you kindly document the details? Thank you.
