(Even it being the first next-gen tundra at the dealership he got it from). He did recently have a pin-hole fuel leak somewhere near the tank in a fuel line. It didn't cost him anything as it was already recalled. but he didn't get a notification for it for some unknown reason. Besides that, he has had no issues with it. He has a 2-inch level kit in the front and even upgraded the tire size. Still no issues.

To be accurate if we are going to criticize Toyota, this problem with metal shavings is happening in US Tundra's and Sequoias as well as Lexus, which are built in Japan, and as far as I can tell, with essentially the same motor but cast and built in Japan. If that is true, then this process control failure is occurring at more than one engine plant.

[@BorderTurrets]

Which means its more likely a design flaw vs quality control. How does QC fall apart world wide across both Lexus and Toyota? Its not debris!

[@jameszeiger8533]

@@BorderTurrets It’s possible it can be a combination of things with the design being absolutely fine, but the Process Control isn’t and the QA isn’t. If you have programming that isn’t just perfect for boring or drilling oil passages in journals or the inadequate programming of machine that is supposed to clean the shavings completely out, you would have this mistake in both locations on both the drill processes and debris cleaning. The QA may be automated as well…

@@NVRAMboi if you came from a 2nd gen Tundra with the 5.7 you'll feel right at home in a Titan. The VK56VD/ 9 speed will net you 1-2 MPG better than the Tundra while making it to 300K miles quite easily.

[@MaxAntihero11]

I don’t think it’s loose metal debris that fell in. I think that’s front bearing material because they used a ladder system to secure their bearings not one cap per bearing. It’s my belief that the ladder system acts like a heat sink and expands and pushes out the front bearing. I’ve seen pictures that looks like they drilled some holes and tried to bolt near the front bearing to try to prevent the expansion on their one piece ladder system. Checking the bearings and measuring them is a waste of time

Just traded my '22 Tundra with 23.5k miles for a '19 TRD Pro with 169k. I'm sure the V8 will serve me better than the TTV6 will serve the next owner. I didn't have engine related issues during my ownership of the '22, but it's not an experience pre and post engine rebuild that I wanted to endure. I had plenty of other QC issues though and ultimately I believe the 2.5 gen is just a more rugged, durable truck.

The most important concern is the repair cost of $32,000! If someone encounters this issue after the warranty expires, how can they afford $32,000? After 6-7 years, low-trim trucks may not even be worth $32,000, which means these trucks could end up in the junkyard if their engines fail.

When a married couple shows up, the woman always wants some $400 can that looks nice; the guy, just a regular old shitter that has TONS OF PARTS! The latter toilet sells, out the door, for less that $100 bucks. I always tell the man, "Have you ever worked on an old Chevy or Ford engine? These toilets are just like 'em! Easy to work on with plenty of parts. The more expensive models? FORGET ABOUT IT!" When the wife is usually out consulting her Facebook friends to get their opinion, I sneak the guy a cart and away he goes to the check out line! The moral of the story: For about 95 percent of your time, practicality will always win out over symbolism. BTW, I own a 2019 Tundra myself, after being a Chevy and Ford man; my last Super Duty was a Turd! Looks like Toyota is "headed to the shitter" themselves. Thanks for reading.

There's nothing wrong with turbochargers on performance vehicles. Change your oil more frequently, be on top of maintenance, and when the turbos eventually wear out, replace them with bigger ones and tune for more power. It's when they start slapping them onto every day vehicles so they don't drop output from the V8s and V6s they are replacing that it becomes problematic.

I highly recommend it. I don't have to worry about gas, oil, belts or any of the other maintenance associated with the gas mowers. I am not a big fan of electric and I HATE electric cars and would never buy one. But, this electric mower is awesome. If you live on roughly 2-acres or less, I highly recommend getting a EGO riding lawnmower. In the long run it will save you a lot of time, money, and frustration over a gas Zero-Turn. It is great for HOME use, I would not recommend if you are in the lawn business...

It's not just this engine, look at the Boxer engines on the GR86's over the past few years. There are so many RTV debris that apparently are showing up in oil pans and the oil filter pleats, yet Toyota does nothing about it. It's absolutely stupid that Toyota has not even addressed this issue over the past few years on this particular vehicle, yet the damage can lead to a blown rod bearings among other things, which destroys your engine. Hope you still have your warranty when something like this happens.

Pretty much every Japanese sports car from the 90s was turbocharged at least in the trim worth buying.

Especially here in Oregon with the warm rains we have been receiving as of late. We do have a small backup battery we can continue mowing with when main battery is recharging. Last time we mowed we were able to mow a truck load of bagged grass with just the main battery which is usually what we do. Use same batteries in our curb edger as well as the 24" bar chainsaw too.

[@snowrocket]

Electric push mowers are really great if you don’t have a large lawn and have enough runtime from the batteries. Some people have no idea how to operate or maintain a gas mower. They are better off with a 21” battery electric mower with removable batteries. When you’re done mowing, pull the batteries out and put them in your house. Lithium ion batteries last longer if kept between 50-80 degrees Fahrenheit.
