What have you done to your 1st gen Tundra today?

Oh, they paid me to leave, so IDGAF, or if I do, it's much less than others. I've got enough connections that if I wanted a job starting in 2 weeks, or in 2 months, I shouldn't have much trouble. And nothing is below me, as long as it's legal and pays at least $20-25/hr and is fun, I'm all over it.

The 100s were interesting to me more from a luxury perspective, you can do all the same things with one as you can on a truck with a cap, but with more comfort, less leaks risk, and better visibility. We have a '20 Highlander Hybrid that can do most of the same things, but it's not "mine", it's more "hers", so I can't mod it as I would mod my own. So instead, I'll continue with the Tundra, and move right along.

Those door lock stickers really pissed me off. And this pic is why I say that. I think most of us with original handles have orange ones, it's obviously not miles/use that kills them, it's age/sun. PS - tag to @abcinv, 79k finally made it.

​

 

I'm pretty sure mine are white. TBH, I've never noticed.

 

Got a chuckle out of me. Thanks.

 

R1 Concepts pads and rotors. 20% over $100 plus had some $20 rewards stacked up. My old rotors were warped and Krispy Kreme glazed haha

I think you need a door panel replacement.

 

I do! If anyone finds any of the whatever color this is I'll take em. I bought some from @Ilsami(I never remember his name) but they're the wrong shade of tan.

 

It was the only pic I had with my door locks!

 

Next time I’m at the salvage yard, I’ll take a look. Either that or from my truck when it mysteriously rolls off a cliff in a fireball.

 

Any previous experience with these? Love to hear back if they work good.

 

Take a pic of your tag in the door jam, it tells you interior color. I think this will tell you anyway....
Here is mine

 

I personally haven’t, but they’re a reputable company. I did some very brief digging and saw the later gen guys liked them. Mine were warped and glazed so it feels pretty good so far lol

 

Yeaaaaah right, Mr. I'm Not Gonna Take a New Exterior Door Handle Even If Someone Gives It To Me.

 

You beat me to it; I'm pretty close though...

I'm just not driving her these days. And my family folks that usually borrows it, just bought an '08 Tundra cause I wouldn't sell mine to them. I don't think they are overly happy with their purchase.

 

I'll be driving less before you know it, but here lately I've been jamming on the miles the last couple months.

 

I did this today......


Engine oil, gas tank and intake/ valves sprayer. See if it helps at all.

 

So in other cars I have applied seafoam to, usually the first 30 to 60 seconds the exhaust comes out white and very very cloudy. The Tundra didn't do that, it idled funny before I bumped it up to the recommended 2000 rpm for the duration, but aside from it smelling like I was using seafoam, iykyk, no white smoke at all. Not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing..... Either the heads are really clean or I'm not sure

 

Mine blew out shitloads of white smoke after the hot-soak step.

 

Same on Tundra/Civic/and my mower

 

I have a pic of mine on here somewhere. Lemme see if I can find it.

I can't wait to hit up this incoming CRV on Thursday with a TB and MAF clean, then Seafoam the top-end. I'll be sure to check the MPG average before doing it, then reset it, and see how I do.

 

Clogged Cats?

 

Got it! https://www.tundras.com/threads/wha...-gen-tundra-today.2558/page-1956#post-3556930

It was like this for a solid 4-5 minutes. I should probably do it again soon, clearly it seems to have burnt out a lot of shit.

 

Nope, there'd be a code for that, P0171 most likely lmfao.

There was a little after the hot soak, but like I said I usually get white smoke during application as well. Guess the Tundras just built different

 

After the hot soak and 220068 miles I had maybe 60 seconds of white smoke like that. If you had like 4 or 5 minutes I would suggest doing that again

 

I'm gonna wait for Advance to have another hot sale on their stuff and give it another go. I'll post back on here when I see a big coupon and sale pop up.

 

O'Reilly's has it on sale. If you buy a bottle of gas/ crankcase treatment you get the valve intake cleaner for free.

 

I got some stuff to do a thing.

 

Where’s the sock?

 

? What sock ?

 

Straight to the dome works too

 

I'll hassle it tomorrow morning.
