Turbo's are easy to replace. Thats not the point though. You shouldn't have to.

[@barrytunzelmann6010]

I respectfully disagree with the OP. When one converts over and buys a first time turbo engine (gas or diesel) one should take a course on how to operate it. Bit of a warm up when cold, easy going for first 2 or 3 miles, use gearbox and go down a gear or 2 when pulling high loads or hills (even though that engine will just plow up the hill in current gear), ALWAYS cool turbo down after stopping (ideally to 300F), good oil and regular changes. Truckers use these traits especially driving by turbo temperature. Turbo replacement - I would buy a gutless turbo vehicle anyday as it is most likely turbo damage and they cost a $1000 (or less) to replace if you do yourself. Only issues now are the hellish emissions systems especially on diesels.

[@DavidWX877]

turbos are junk and do not last.

[@gumpbubba4276]

You are 100% right David. Before I retired a year ago, I sold and repaired turbos in one of the largest truck and auto parts and repair houses in the USA. I've seen customers, men and women come into the counter with a busted turbo in hand and lay them on the counter and say, "how much for one of these?" Example: An average auto turbo runs from $1350 to $2300 dollars exchange on your core (new or used we get the core). Then if you put it back on yourself, your good but if you hire it done that's another $1300/$1700 dollars. Like the guy David said, "turbos are junk." Car and Truck manufactures are putting it on you to increase their fuel mileage average because if they can't meet the Federal Standard Average, they have to pay a huge fine for not meeting that Standard fuel Mileage Average. So, you pay the big bucks for junk turbos that boost the fuel mileage for the manufacturer, and he reaps the benefits, and you get stuck in the future with big repair bills which you would not need if you had a gasoline non turbo engine. Wake up people, you were doing just fine before turbos started showing up on 4,6- and 8-cylinder gasoline engines. Why should we the public pay for their short comings?

[@gumpbubba4276]

Twin turbos are just double the trouble. Turbos are not cheap to replace parts or labor. You can't fudge on oil changes maybe 2000/3000 miles with turbos. Turbos don't like that; they are very sensitive to late oil changes. So, what do they do, they spin their bearings and that puts metal shavings in your engine oil supply and now you have spun rod or main bearings and a busted engine because of a turbo you did not need in the first place. Wake up people do not buy trucks and autos with turbos.

I have a 2023 Platinum Tundra, not worried, it's not an engineering problem just a manufacturing glitch. Toyota is standing behind it. If the engine blows it will be replaced. It is what it is. On to the next hurdle in life.

You are right! Educated man

2023 Tundra owner here. I have had no problems with my truck and i am also a lifelong Toyota junkie. The best warranty is the one that a manufacturer will stand behind and Toyota always has... unlike Ford that trys to skate out of it (my experience) and Chevy where they have no clue what to do and try to put you in a new one instead of engineering a solution. I am a retired auto technician and i will stay with my Toyota...always.

[@brothersconstruction-dx4yk]

The question is will the new engine prove to be reliable or will this go down as a total failure. My 2015 Tundra with 155 000 km in central Canada has only had the belt tensioner and belt changed by me as preventative. All other regular service done but no failure or breakdowns. I would like to know someone from Toyota engineering and find out what was the design flaw because debris from machining seems kind of lame unless the engine was creating debris from poor wear.

[@lori-annlevenec3770]

We’re at well over 300k clicks…pulling a work trailer every day, up and over mountains..Timing needed repair so spent time and pulled engine, replaced timing assembly, and heavy duty mechanic who was doing the work said he’s never seen an engine as clean as that one. She’s like new! That being said, we added a ‘23 Tundra to the gang, because we were getting ready for the ‘12 and ‘15 to get tired of all the hard work we push. No major problems, happy with it, and if it gets a new engine, 👍 Wife is not happy though…she was ready to retire her taco for a 4Runner but that’s gonna be awhile.

[@inconspicuous7464]

We would still have the V8s if it wasnt for the EPA regulating them to extinction.

[@jamesgizasson]

Ironically, EPA regulations are more strict for smaller cars, so they're also behind the automotive "arms race".

[@Drewcardello]

IF Toyota made a semi-popular EV they would still have the credits to sell V8s like Ford does.

[@TannerSeidel]

That’s before we talk about electronics issues in the 2024 trundra.

[@BraaapoholicBob]

The tundra front end is so hideous I will never buy one.

[@bobby1970]

In my opinion, the Ram trucks look the best. Even the F150 looks decent.

[@billtodd6509]

I think the 1950 Dodge Pickup is much more beautiful.

[@gleanerman2195]

The new tundras are the ugliest trucks ever made.

[@bobby1970]

@gleanerman2195 I agree, they're uglier than sin. I liked the looks of the 2016 to 2021 Tundras.

[@everydayfun9531]

Toyota quality has definitely went way too down...

keeping my naturally aspirated 4.0 liter 4runner until the wheels fall off. this whole EV and forced induction movement is GARBAGE.

I bought a 23 tundra built during time frame indicated in the recall, but have not received a recall letter. Dealer says my truck is not on the list? No not a hybrid. Just curious.

[@stevemazzara8178]

Well, they tried to screw customers over on the initial engine fix - would I trust them now? And where the hell was quality control after debris flushing the first block? I would expect this from a startup, not from Toyota.

[@MarkTurner-vs7uc]

They went woke,smd everything broke.

The world would be better if everyone went WOKE, instead of being a brainwashed fool.

[@MASTER3RDEYE]

Installation quality only as good as the competency of the mechanic. Remember, the stages of the engine installation are not inspected by a quality assurance inspector. Prior to receiving delivery, inspect your vehicle throughly. I have found missing dipsticks, spilled oil, tools, unsecured air filter housings/hoses, loose/missing oil filler caps. Last but not least, have the service adviser show you the engine has OIL and all other fluids are topped off.

[@suad01]

How does the hybrid Tundra fare?

[@doom4067]

If the engine blows you can still drive it to the side of the road. That's why they're aren't covering them.

[@clintpatty]

I live in Huntsville, AL where these engines were produced. Now I'm curious to know who has information after the same plant built the V8 without issues like this for years.

[@doom4067]

My understanding is that they built the Lexus engines in Japan. I'm not close to believing that assemblers in 2 different factories on opposite sides of the globe just didn't do their jobs properly at the same time.

[@clintpatty]

@@doom4067 There's a theory on another video I think that this was a problem from the engine block supplier. The same supplier may have exported the blocks to the US at first. When you read the recall pdf, it looks to me like Toyota needed the production volume of the Alabama plant to diagnose and fix this issue. The Tahara plant had been building this engine for years before Huntsville but not with the same volume.

[@allanwillis1228]

Toyota also has an issue with transmissions in the Highlander and I believe the sienna vehicles. At or about the 70,000 Km mark the tyrannys are making a whining noise, of course the problem is outside the warranty period and since the tyranny can't be fixed they are replaced with new at a cost about $10,000 for the customer. People buy Toyota because of their reliability but I guess not any more. My 2019 Highlander has 79.000 Km on it and I'm not sure what to do.

[@brianwilliamson9404]

Sell it...buy a Hugo...better quality

[@nielsjensen1997]

I think your estimated cost for new engine is far from actual cost that I believe is somewhere between 2,500 and 3,000 for what they replace. But for sure it is an extreme cost overall for Toyota and a decision that gets my respect. Total dedication for a company that stands behind their product.

[@SeriouslySinigang]

Have a 2022 Tundra Platinum. Zero issues and love that truck like crazy. Happy Toyota is just putting in a new engine. I hope I get a 4th Gen Tacoma loaner so I can drive it like it's stolen on some trails until my Tundra gets a new engine lol

[@lubbs7585]

Please remember that these trucks for the most part are made in the US.... Japan made vehicles with that same engine don't really have this issue.... American branch of Toyota is cutting corners these days.

[@bwaters698]

Does that also hold ture for Lexus that are made in Japan, I here they were having same problem before the Tundra's

[@lubbs7585]

@@bwaters698 not saying Toyota is perfect... But in terms of the Lexus line up I only hear about the LX not the GX and Japanese made ones are probably gonna be fixed before the US line up

[@bwaters698]

@lubbs7585 maybe , but what I heard was Toyota has know about this problem for a long time and did nothing about it until they had to, don't get me wrong Toyota makes good vehicles but have had and still do problems, take the 4/runner all Toyota fan boys think it's bullet proof! Google history of 4/ runner problems it has had and the 2024 still does

[@lubbs7585]

@@bwaters698 most large corporations do this .... Toyota is no different but they're still kings of reliability...

[@bwaters698]

​@lubbs7585 spoken like a ture Toyota fan boy,but you missed my point and completely ignored me bring up the Very old dinosaur 4/runner! Why ?? maybe because it's built in Japan, IF Toyota is King of reliability why after all these years with the same platform it's still having many issues? ,like frames rusting so bad it's frames are falling apart, tail lights burning so hot they catch on fire,like it or not Toyota owns the problems the tundra are having, it's not just motors blowing up it's all kinds of problems tundra's are designed by Toyota built with materials and parts Toyota choose to use built in a Toyota plant run by Toyota with trained Toyota employees! So Don't put the failures of Toyota on the back of America or Americans ! To me a vehicle being King of reliability means much more than will it start! Have a good day

[@hondatrix]

Some experts don’t know how a vehicle warranty actually works. Let me tell you! When YOU purchase a new vehicle, YOU pay for the warranty already. It’s included in the price of the vehicle. It’s a portion of the price that covers what is expected to be”fail”. Some OEM’s place as much as 35% of the SRP as a warranty coffer. Yes they will lose some margin, but they won’t hurt too much….

[@bc5968]

Gotta give credit where credit is due! I have to assume that there are people in the Quality Control management group that dropped the ball. It doesn't appear to have anything to do with the engine having turbochargers or 2 less cylinders. The new engine has plenty of power! Someone, somehow missed the fact that the blocks were not being properly cleaned during production and this doesn't look good for a company whose name and success has been built on quality. I'm betting there have been some major changes made after a HARD look into how this happened. Toyota is taking the high road and taking care of it's customers. They don't have a choice. If you don't have happy customers, you don't stay on top in the car manufacturing business. We have the new Tundra ( manufactured 5/23 ) and a new 24 Tacoma TRD Sport. The Tundra has had a recall for the fuel and brake line rubbing, and the Taco has been in once for a poorly sealed AGS connector throwing fault codes. So far, both have been great trucks!

[@david-breitenfeld]

i have a 2016 Toyota Tacoma, 2nd generation. At 153,000 the engine has an oil leak near the bottom left of the engine. To fix the entire engine needs taken out at about $5,000. No warranty. I wonder if other people have this problem.

[@undefinedundefined1662]

Red rtv 157 and contact cleaner and a scrub brush . Clean the crap out of it and fill the hole

[@fivepin55]

I seriously hope that this is the only major issue with the Tundra. I want to buy one in the future. But I just hope that the turbos wont have to be replaced before 100k miles like you have to with the ford 3.5.
