What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

Tapped into the microphone/map light harness. Red is constant power

 

swapped the fan belt, and changed out the rear license plate lights. booya.

 

Any clue if this Zach guy does his magic with Expeditions? Wife and I have been monitoring that market for about a year, hoping things would come back to reality

 

Finally installed start-x remote start. Took a little over an hour to install.

 

This is on my short list. What was the hardest part in your opinion?

 

When I installed my 12volt Solutions remote start the most difficult thing was working from underneath the dash on my 2020 SR5. NO room when you're old and stiff

 

Awesome, thank you! Are you still rocking the factory halogen map lights and wanted the red?

 

I have Vleds 5K map lights and wanted the option for red at night

 

Did the front diff and t-case drain and fill today, Amsoil 75w-90 in both. Luckily no struggle with the front diff drain or fill plugs but still swapped them out with the Lexus style plugs since I had ordered them a while back. Glad to have that done with as I had been putting it off for a while.

*Side note:
The front diff drain plug I ordered part# 90341-24016 fit a 14mm socket, I was expecting it to be a 24mm similar to the rear diff drain/fill plugs. Curious if that matches what others have for that same part number?

 

Yep, 14mm. But there are replacement plugs off Amazon that are a 24mm. I’ve got a couple saved in my cart that are magnetic also

 

crap! I'm seeing problems now. Hmm.. It worked fine after installing and testing. 4 hrs later and there's problems. Not sure what to do there. I'll post a new thread to see if anyone can help me.

 

Are you actively towing? And are you sure you plugged everything in completely?

 

I'm not towing. The trucks just parked.

Errors
SRS,
TPMS,
Trailer,
Rear cross traffic,

 

i'm not familiar with the install for this, but sounds to me like you've got a harness not fully plugged in.

 

Double check everything that you touched, confirm every connector is firmly seated

 

Ok nice thank you for confirming, I was just thinking 24mm would be stronger than 14 if it ever seized up like the 10mm hex plugs do, the 14mm looks a little small on a plug that big but only 29lbs torque though so I guess it’s fine.

 

I did plug it into the wrong plugs the first time and then had to redo the plugs. Maybe that did something, wonder if I can just simply "reset" it with my scan tool.

 

Most of those systems will auto-reset when a fault no longer exists. You can pull your negative battery terminal for about 15 mins and then plug it back in and try that.

Dumb question - you are 100% sure you bought the one for 2018 and not 2017?
There are some considerable changes to wiring when they added the safety sense system, and if the harnesses fit the same but don't have the same wire pin-outs that would cause issues.

 

Yes. 2018-2020.
So I plugged the TPMS t harness into one of the wrong ones near the middle, not the lowest one by the blue Port. I just realized that I plugged in the wrong one after it wouldn't stop or doesn't unlock.

But there was no errors on the dash at that time, even after plug it into the right TPMS port.

I'm scanning it now. I'll try to reset it.

 

Looks good! How do you like them so far? What brand? Also, in channel or adhesive on the outter trim of the door?

 

Your scanner will read all systems? TPMS/ABS/SRS etc etc

 

I have the weather techs but noticed there are a few options some for carpet and some for rubber flooring. Maybe check the packaging to make sure they’re for protecting carpet. My front driver and passenger side mats have the “grippy” things on the bottom which are actually pretty sharp and two locking twisty things to keep them from sliding. They don’t budge at all. Hope this is helpful!

 

Launch Elite


This LAUNCH x431 elite bidirectional OBD2 scanner for toyota lexus can perform the following functions!

Engine, Transmission, ABS System, Electronic Parking Brake (EPB), Battery Manage System (BMS), Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS), Supplemental Restraint System (SRS), Air Suspension, Cruise Control System, Steering Angle System, Air Conditioning System, Audio System, Body System, Gateway, etc.

 

So I have the flat black ones (just as yours is pictured). The flat black ones can come off just like the painted or chrome ones? If this is true I am an idiot. Thank you for enlightening me haha I thought I’d have to get some sort of overlay or swap out for different mirrors. Just got my first tundra so I’m new to this. Geeking out on all the forums for upgrades and learning a lot. By the way, your Badges look good too

 

Unplug negative terminal for 20 minutes, that did not solve the problem. Trying to reset the system with my launch elite but it's taking forever to load.

 

So I detailed the Crewmax today.

• Wash
• Decon/claybar
• Wash again
• Two step polish
• Ceramic coated
• Trim restorer on plastics(ie:mirrors, door handles, bed rails tailgate cap. Used “solution finish” (you need this. you’re welcome)
• Also added the black out badges the wife got me. The paint is t perfect but it’s better than it was.

*yes I did this all day today.

 

Anyone here who lives in Los Angeles and has a supercharger in their 2.5gen tundra? I’m interested in getting one and just like to hear your experience with it. Thanks

That’s the thread to read…

 

Thanks. Yeah, I’m more interested in seeing if anyone near me would be willing to let me test drive his/her supercharged tundra, so I can know if it’s worth the upgrade or not. I’d like to feel the drive and compare the differences between stock and the upgraded setup.
