What have you done to your 2nd Gen Sequoia today?

Doesn't seem as likely as the receiver or related ECU. But I suppose someone could be so unlucky to have all of them fail at once.

 

Washed her yesterday.

But FINALLY did the rear differential breather mod.
Had to rush since I'm doing it with the kids at home out of school, but at least did it.
Bought the union off Amazon a while back I think. The hose was left over from when I did the same mod for my tundra.

 

Removed cargo boxes, gave Bertha a wash, lifted and fitted with some new shoes



Poke anyone?

 

Sweet ride!

 

Body or suspension lift?

 

Suspension Sorry wasn’t clear.
- Westcott Designs collar lift about 1.5/1 inch lift front/rear
- BFG ko3 (295x70x18) about 2inch taller than stock tires
- 1.5in spidertraxx wheel spacers

 

Nice & Beefy !!

 

Installed the Tundra transmission cooler . Smooth install , everything just bolts right up.

 

Good deal.
got links to parts ordered or anything?
also, what's your towing situation? issues before? something push you to get this? or was this just a pre-emptive thing?

 

It’s for pulling an rv camper . I have the tow package , but that didn’t include the transmission cooler on 2012 Sequoias , which I think is wild. so parts :
Tundra cooler - 32910-0c010 ( get it used on ebay)for $250 vs $600 new .& make sure it has the plastic surrounding.
Thermostat - 32970-34030
Inlet hose -32941-0c030
Outlet hose 32942-0c040
Hard line - 32907-0c020
Hose clamps x8 -90466-16004
Flange bolts x2 - 90080-10400
Lastly for the hardline to the cooler I just picked up a couple feet of 3/4 hose from autozone ……

 

brought the sequoia into the dealer this past week. had 3 things for them to look at under my extended warranty (covers everything except maintenance items with $0 co-pay)

1. Passenger front window was making a grinding sound like the motor was going out. Ordered new regulator and motor for it. On backorder for a few weeks it seems.
2. Both front ball joints had oil/grease leaking out the boots. Seemed possibly normal, but wanted to make sure since I was already there. Checked and said it's normal leaking, but no worries. Checked rear shocks and saw the seals were leaking. Ordered 2 new ones for them. Said they could be in their hands in about a week. I didn't see anything, but I'm almost positive they're trying to get some extra money since it's just 2 bolts for each one and they're straight forward to change. Hell, they said they charged it for 8 hours for the 2. I put an entire 6" lift kit on my last truck in about 10 hours.
3. My driver's seatbelt female end was making a clicking noise for a little while while driving. It'd make clicking sounds when buckled and driving over bumps or even if i repositioned and/or took a deep breath. It wasn't a big deal, but considering it was the seat belt, I didn't wanna risk something being wrong with a safety component. They were barely able to replicate it and are replacing the part. Back-ordered and should be here in a few weeks.

Also changed brake fluid this past weekend with my pops.

 

Rear wiper stopped working on my 2016 Sequoia. Could not for the life of me find where the fuse was, but kept searching and found a guy on the 4runners site, whose rear wiper stopped working. Turns out at some point he hit the rear power window switch a smidge, and there’s a safety feature that doesn’t allow the wiper to work if the window is down just a little. Same thing exists on the Sequoia…me or my wife must’ve accidentally hit our rear window switch…problem solved.

 

That's good to know!
