WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO YOUR 3RD GEN TUNDRA TODAY?

yup, i was pretty good about not stepping on the brakes and engaging the auto stop, but the damn stop/start when parking really annoyed me. so I also installed the auto button presser.

 

i don't see the TRD light like yours, did you order from a different vendor?

 

I got them from mvpautosupplies.com back in March of 2024. It doesn’t look like they offer that style any more but there are plenty of vendors on the internet that have lots to choose from. They’re plug and play and take about 30 seconds to install.

 

I don't want the truck to do anything I don't tell it to do. I didn't tell it to turn off. I also don't want to increase my starter use by three, five or more times for what I see as no benefit. I am fairly easy on the brakes but still activate the auto stop a few times per trip, city driving often corner to corner.

 

yup found another vendor on etsy that has some more options. already did my wifes suby so wanted some for mine too

 

It has something to do with when you take your seatbelt off relative to when you shift into park. It's really annoying. I didn't want it trying and change my habits to stop it.

 

Got rid of the dark chrome and put on my color matched mustache from www.ecoological.com. Very pleased with color match and fitment. Before and after pics attached…

 

I don’t disagree at all. The system is not very intrusive. My only reservation is what happens in the engine with each start cycle. Bearings with zero oil pressure. This happening every time you bring it to a stop? I think it’s better for the engine to keep it running. The only reason for the system is fuel economy. It doesn’t increase the longevity of the engine.

Got the 1794 version from this place, quick shipping, stupid easy install. Have had for about 8 months zero issues.
