Replaced my '05 Tundra with a '24 TRD Pro in July. Tow a 5000 lb. toyhauler with it. The danger of towing with the new Tundra is that it is too easy to forget I'm towing a trailer. Effortless pulling over 4,000 ft. mountain passes here in Washington State. Even better than the power ascending the hill is how the truck uses the engine and transmission to control the speed on the descent. That's what's most impressed me with towing with the new Tundra.

I can’t thank you enough for your no-nonsense approach to everything. My wife and I just bought a 2025 Toyota Crown Hybrid Max, Platinum. Following my own advice and the wisdom of others such as yourself, I have made an appointment for its first oil change. I am fortunate to have a great auto shop near me, and they will be servicing this one vs a Toyota dealership. It may have a little under 900 miles by that time, but I don’t care. It’s our vehicle, and I’m uncomfortable waiting until 5K miles on the odometer before it’s first service. The oil filter dissection was enough to convince me that I’m on the right track. Again, thanks! 🙏🏼

the little spout on the piece under the oil filter is meant for attaching a length of hose down to your oil drain pan. My dad's 2006 Tacoma was like that, with the V6 filter mounted up near the top. It had a little cup under the filter, with a spout, and I kept a piece of hose to attach and route down to my drain pan. Worked great, zero mess.

I am so glad you bought a new Tundra! Thank you very much for walking viewers through the oil change process, dissecting the filter and explaining the analysis results. I have a '23 Tundra -- manufactured during May 2023 -- so am keenly interested in your ongoing impressions and observations of your truck. Bought mine ten months ago and currently have about 11,000 miles. 9,000 of that is from a two-month coast-to-coast trip. Have so far done oil changes at Toyota dealers in Oregon and Virginia, at 5,000-mile intervals. My Tundra has performed flawlessly. Am absolutely delighted with it -- the most capable and comfortable vehicle I have ever owned. Hopefully, it will also prove to be the most reliable. Still have my '04 Honda Element (original owner) so on reliability that will be a tough standard for comparison.

[@stevenbarrio3977]

I did my break-in oil change on my 2024 Tundra SR5 a couple weeks ago. The oil made such a mess shooting out of the drain pan, I installed a Fumoto valve for the next time and bought the 15mm ID hose for the oil filter, it made it so much easier than what you did with yours. I highly recommend it.

[@volvo09]

I should see if there is a valve for my ford... It has a goofy 1/2 turn plastic drain plug sealed with an o ring... The opening is like 3/4 of an inch and it shoots hot oil directly at the sway bar, spraying oil all over the place. I hate changing the oil in my truck. It's worse than getting all the way under my Honda and reaching up through a tiny gap to unscrew the oil filter from up on the back of the engine.

[@stevenbarrio3977]

@@volvo09 yeah I have a rectangle drain pan so I positioned it to catch the oil as it shot out and it shot out and splashed all over the place, I am looking forward to using the valve with the hose you put on it next time. I even bought a Fumoto for my wife's Subaru.

[@Rhaspun]

@@volvo09 Try using a oil extractor. I use one for my 4 Runner. It's wasn't designed to do oil changes this way like how my Mercedes is. But when I moved the tube around it will suck out all of the oil of the 4 Runner. First I push in the tube as far as possible but it doesn't do a complete job. I then have to raised the tube several inches and it begins sucking out the oil again. I wasn't expecting that. I had first tried using the extractor to experiment with it on my 4 Runner. I always pour in the recommended amount of oil required and it's not over filled at all. One time I did take off the drain plug and a maybe a couple of drops came out after I used the extractor.

I was looking to see if someone else picked that up. The two get confused often. Like you say, silicon (as listed on the oil analysis results) are microscopic particles of sand/dirt and is a very important value to know. Silicone is the rubbery, flexible engine sealant/gasket material.

[@JimmyMakingitwork]

I used a piece of 5/8 heater hose on the filter drain tray, about 10" long, worked well to eliminate the mess. MY SR5 has a fabric under cover that came down without using service mode, my sons in a Limited TRD off road and his ridged plastic/composite pan required service mode.

[@JulietHotelFoxtrot]

I did a 1k oil change on a 2024 Tacoma. Similar silicone goobers in the filter, and also some bits of metal like you found. My filter was way way lighter than yours. That's surprisingly dark for that mileage and age. 10k OCI on that seems insane as a recommendation from Toyota.

[@jimmyaber5920]

Admittedly I'm on the automotive OCD spectrum but I always remove filter while drain plug is out. I can't recall any vehicle I've serviced where this didn't release some additional oil to drain. The filter will seal the pump circuit and removing filter vents that circuit and it drains the pump and pickup. Pump onward will typically drain through filter adapter. The cartridge filters can have their special procedure.

[@dharley189]

I’m gonna give you an OCD hint lesson I learned. Take filter off first. Just in case it slips out of your hand it won’t land in the full drain pan and splash oil everywhere. I learned this the HARD way after a 50 year career in car repair business. And like AMD says, not many oil filters come off without some kind of mess 😢

Here in the UK with these "keyless" keys, you have to keep them in a RFID blocking pouches. Meaning you have to take them out and put in the pouch or wallet. Reason you have to do this is because criminals come outside your home or where your keyless key is, clone the signal with a device and steal your car. You wake up in the morning and the car is gone. What they do after who knows, so these keyless method has its risks. Something to be aware of.

[@TheCobruhAlienat0r]

Same thing can happen with the regular fob that comes with push button start vehicles. With new Toyota's they can still steal it even if you put your key in the pouch because they can pop a headlight out and plug in a device that some how forces the car to start and then they drive it to their shop and use the dealership tools to program a new key and ship it somewhere else.

[@mrvang8077]

Yeah....a $70 grand vehicle should be cabin noise proof. Otherwise, it ain't worth $70 grand and have it rattles and noises from outside. $70 grand ain't no chump change. On a $20-$35grand vehicle, it's okay to have a few rattle and noise for a base model. The higher end trim should be immaculate, and noise proof and rattle proof to be consider top tier higher trim model.

I cannot speak to the new tundra, but our 2015 crewmax towed a 9000lb, 32ft RV up the Poconos. It had good power even up some grades. For the leaf springs, when the truck was weighed down, it rode much better than empty. You definitely felt the trailer, but the bumps were smoother loaded. Even when I put some firewood in the bed, it rides better than empty.

A new 3.4 v6 turbo cost $28000 The previous 5.7 liter V8 cost $8000 new. Exchange and installation not included but the V6 turbo cost much more to replace. 😮

You might want to double check your prices, and clarify if you’re comparing a long block or a short block. If Toyota will send you a long block… Current msrp on a 5.7 long block is $30,219.66 Current msrp on a 3.4(.5 with extra rounding?) long block is $20,108.56 Part numbers 19000-0S120 and 19000-F4030. 3.4L part number is listed as without hybrid.

Been a fleet tech at a county government shop for 30 years and maintain 400 vehicles. We do all oil changes at 5k miles from new. Never have we dropped the oil on new vehicles before the 5k mark. I think back in the old days they did that but to each his own. We run our vehicles well into 200k before replacement. No engine issues because we didn't do that first oil change at 1k miles. Like i said, if it makes you feel better about it then by all means, do it!

There needs to be a way to control all aspects of your life, therefore, an on line diagnosis tool. If your future social score doesn't meet the requirements, you will not be able to work if you are a mechanic .... It is that simple.

unfortunately everything is going to subscription, and the management at Toyota went with the crowd and probably outsourced a subscription as a service platform. also as other have noted the old tech stream is cracked and available for download for free.

That filter autopsy looks comforting. At least the engine wont lock up from strange machining debri syndrome. Many happy motoring miles!

[@SimonCoates]

Techstream software was cracked and is available to buy online for cheap. Maybe that's why Toyota changed to online diagnosis?

[@jimmyaber5920]

Yes. I retired from working for a manufacturer and a live ("cloud") system was the fix for resident systems that could be hacked. The resident systems had protections for log in, but even live log in could be bypassed once the security was decoded. Toyota could have keys loaded using aftermarket scan tools for subscribed key/immobilizer servicing but some issue surfaced and Toyota pulled back this feature from some tools.

My brother moved his apartment and towed his car behind my '02 Sequoia. He filled the back to the roof, and filled his pretty full and then put it on the trailer. I would say by the squat he was near max or over it slightly. He drove 500 miles to Dallas with no issues, even through rain. He said he enjoyed the drama-free drive.

I've bought 2 new toyota vehicles in the last few years, a 21 highlander and a 23 IS500, I did a break in oil change on both and was shocked at how much stuff was in the oil. I really do think it's totally normal as both of these cars are running super smooth mamy miles later.

[@timmueller1314]

Same thing on my 96 Chevy Lumina van. Filter oil drips right on the front cross member and wiring harness. An inch back or forth, and it would miss.

[@johnj1789]

I thought it was a nice touch by Toyota because I didn't have to hold a funnel myself under the filter, or let it drip where it would while having the drain pan under it. All I had to do was pop a tube on the thing and it worked perfectly.

[@musicsavesxlives]

Just make a clear hose put on hole put a clamp on it!

I also have a 24’ tundra. What undercoating are you going to go with? I live in Wisconsin and I worry about all that salt and brine that they use constantly.

[@johnj1789]

I live in northern Ohio. We went with Fluid-Film, professionally sprayed on. Cost $200 and has to be re-done every year or two but it's supposed to seep into crevasses. Only went through one winter so far, and that was kind of mild, so we'll see what the future brings. They didn't spray inside the doors I found out, so I shot it myself through the drain holes. When I asked why, I was told it tends to drip on people's clothes from those drain holes. But that's only very temporary, so next time I'm telling him to spray the hell out of the doors. My $70,000 truck is worth a lot more than what you're wearing unless you're the queen of England, and so far I haven't had to give her a ride.

[@poorinspirit7]

Live in Wisconsin as well. 2022 Sequoia. Fluid film it every year. Buy a sprayer that has the 360 wand and get into the frame rails and door drain holes. It has a creeping property. Rust free after three years on salted roads. Most of the coating remains after a year but I touch up the areas that get heavy road spray. $46 a gallon at OReillys. Half a gallon does the truck each year, so $23 to keep my family vehicle rust free.

The good thing about Japanese Oem oil filters are construct well and are race tested for durable. In 2005, I stopped by small Toyota store in Tokyo and I saw a Toyota Oem oil filter on Toyota race engine. Honda does same thing with their OEM oil filters too.

I wouldn’t want to find out when these twin turbo V6 engines fail or need to be replaced. With the new engine replacement, maybe 100K before a complete overhaul or replacement of the engine and turbos. Toyota needs a leadership change across the board.

tip for the tundra oil changes as i'm the only one draining them in our pit: use an empty quart bottle or soda can to catch the oil at that funnel opening while you switch out the filters. quick, easy and clean if you have the new filter and can of brake clean close by.

Everybody keeps talking about the engine problems. They are no higher in problems, actually less than many other new release trucks of other manufacturers. I believe the first two years of the new Tundras they had a less than .2 % engine problem rate. The fact that Toyota has had a reputation for bullet proof engines everybody had to jump on the gang attack mentality when the new Tundra had some problems.
