Toyota Tundra Auto LSD Explained Once and For ALL + 4wd, 2wd, VSC and Stability Control Explained!

[@jeg812ify]

Is this the same for 2010 models? Everything looks just about the same as far as the button and the lights and all. I've been looking for an explanation great video!

[@TundraGuy]

Thanks, i tried my best! Yes this is the same for all gen2 and gen3 (2007-Current)

[@roellopez6638]

it is the same but auto lsd is not always on i think he might be wrong on that one i always got stuck with traction control on i would have to turn off traction control and turn on auto lsd to get unstuck

[@seanoconnell769]

Not

[@18chevydude]

I have a 07 tundra and when you go to 4hi. Vsc is off but I still have traction control. I've been stuck in mud and you can hear the abs. System activating. And it reduced power some. Or you can hold the button down and then everything is off and you have full power but then your stuck with open front and rear diffs. The new tundras might be different.

[@roellopez6638]

vehicle stability control is not traction control

[@gte1340]

Excellent explanation of a complicated subject screw all those naysayers below giving you bad comments!

[@MrRey007]

Under offroad applications the auto lsd activation is very useful. When you activate it you will be able to go up to 4k rpms. The reason of this is because the trucks has 401lb of tq on 3600rpms. The auto lsd is always on by default but in case you actually need full power you press the button once and you will be able to pull all your trucks power. This is recommended depending of the offroad application you are in to. Like during mud cross or climbing. You will still have the autolsd system on but still be able to pull full power.

[@211212112]

Also o saw where you can push the auto lsd once to do something, then press and hold it for 3-4 seconds to do something else, then press and hold another 3-4 to get something else. After the three times turn on tow mode and you now have the best fish tail and donut mode

[@SublimeTree]

This is accurate

[@rodneyschwenk2935]

Thanks for explaining the LSD button in such detail. Now it all makes sense on my 2017 Tundra. Thanks Tundra Guy, Rod

[@prandomable]

Auto LSD is STILL part of traction control system. It controls and brake rear spinning wheel if one wheel loses traction. It just doesn't control front to rear wheels speed difference, only left to right at the rear.

[@thomasburr9244]

Seeing your video and reading other testimonies I'm so relieved, that noise was someone settling LOL I just bought a super clean 2011 tundra and I live in New Hampshire pulling out in the snow this morning when the tires spun and I heard that noise my heart dropped LMAO

[@J.OROZCO81]

So I am not the only one hearing this weird noise when it starts slipping?

Thanks Tundra Guy. I'm on my second Tundra and this is one of the better explanations I've seen on the subject.

[@Bunkysworkshop]

Makes a lot of sense and also I thought my engine sounded like a diesel and questioned the dealer and was told this was normal. I can hear your engine in the background and it sounds the same. I feel better now. LOL. Thanks.

[@eddiesolis6915]

craigsclocks its a beast. I love the roar🥵😏🙌🏼

[@wildbill23c]

Its not confusing at all, its using the traction control and ABS system to apply the brakes to a spinning wheel to transfer power to the wheels with traction....its very easy to understand. A wheel spins, the brake system's ABS sensors sense wheel speed differences and tell the computer and the computer applies the brake to the wheel that is spinning and transfers power, or tries to transfer power to the wheel on the opposite side of the axle to help move the truck. It works somewhat, but in reality it wears out your brake pads, and is absolutely no excuse for not having a true limited slip or a locker....and given the price point of the Tundra it should at least offer a limited slip.

[@dalephillips8250]

Good Explanation. The only thing you could have added was a camera outside the vehicle showing what is actually happening.

[@joshuasanborn46]

1. Press the TRACTION CONTROL button once to engage ASL. 2. Press and HOLD the TC Button to disengage the Vehicle stability control and ASL. >>>>>>you didn’t mention the next step. 3. After showing both lights (ASL and VSC) press AND HOLD the TC Button again until the dashboard tells you “Traction Control Off”. If you go to step 3 be aware you will have full access to the motor and tires with no limitations whatsoever. If you can handle that, click the ‘TOW HAUL’ Button once and be very careful. It’s a totally different beast at this point. I was disappointed with the HP of my tundra until I learned how to use it. Disclaimer: I know the TOW HAUL button is for towing. But my goodness what’s a difference in available torque once pressed.

[@eddiesolis6915]

Joshua Sanborn yeah it’s definitely a beast😍

[@1991toyrolla]

Great video. No silly music, clear and informative.

[@tmzz3609]

The auto LSD works in 4x4. Jack both rear tires and one front tire in the air and you can watch it work. One tire front and rear will spin then you will see the braking be applied to the spinning wheels, then one front tire touching pavement will then get power.

[@pryme2013]

That's cool to see you have the colum shifter and six passenger seating too.

[@wildbill23c]

Yeah not quite as common now unfortunately...I had the same setup in my 08 Tundra...that center console shifter is the most waste of space I've ever seen...my 05 Tundra has captain front seats but the column shifter...I didn't buy it new otherwise it would have had the same front seat option my 08 had...that center console is a waste of space.

[@vtimou5772]

What about A-TRAC,,,i think its always on in 4hi and 4lo,,,,its works like auto lsd but in the front and rear,,,,and the truck has to move at lease 5mph i think

[@greghillis4994]

All in all the LSD system is junk. I was very disappointed in it not realizing it wasn't a true LSD and it doesn't engage in 4WD. I definitely should of researched it before purchase. I spent the money and installed an Auburn Pro LSD and It's the best upgrade I could of done. I live in northern Alberta and the day I had it installed we got over 3 feet of snow. Trucks were stuck everywhere but, I didn't even have to put ur in 4WD. Good video...junk system.

[@3sgteleak]

@Greg Hillis Who did you get to do the actual LSD install? I also live in Alberta and have hated the fake LSD since the first winter of owning an 07 tundra. Any of the service managers at any Toyota Tundra dealerships I have been to believe that it “already has a limited slip differential” If I can find a trustworthy service centre in Alberta I may be tempted to take the odometer to 5000000km.

[@wildbill23c]

The aftermarket has some great limited slip and locker options for the Tundra, and if I ever bought another Tundra I'd definitely go get an aftermarket limited slip at a minimum. Toyota seriously needs to wake up and offer an E-Locker like they do in the Tacoma...pretty cheesy garbage design with the ALSD that they threw in them. All it does is eat up your brake pads.

[@Rad3yt]

What about when you’re in 2wd and you hold the vsc for 3-5 sec a second time and it displays “Traction control off”

[@bryanwalters1041]

2014 tundra sr5 2wd 5.7L - the rear tires do not turn at the same time/rotation when slipping in mud. And to remove the "traction control" you must hold down the tow/haul & traction control buttons together for 3 seconds. You can then press the tow/haul button again to remove tow/haul. But, if you hit the traction control button again, you will go back into "Limited" slip. Also, I usually have an ATV in the back or on a trailer. It doesn't seem to make any difference, thou. Also, this goes the same at the boat ramp, too. Pulls better than my old ram and dad's f150. Just sayin..... Hope this helps..... 84,300 mi. And just replaced the brake pads. No other repairs have been done besides oil changes, tires, and wiper blades at this time.

[@taborrossi8411]

[@taborrossi8411]

Bryan Walters it didn't seem to make a difference from the other way without the tow haul button

[@abosworth]

Good video but you forgot to mention turning traction control completely off in 2wd mode. You hold the button for 3 seconds and both lights come on. Then you hold the button again for an additional 3 seconds and then you're running without any system control. So you're essentially running with an open differential in the rear and the display will show "Traction control off" Just wanted to mention that as it is in the owners manual

[@TundraGuy]

Lol... thanks man!

[@pbillings808]

3:26 - totally wrong. Both tires are spinning because both are on ice. Put one on the pavement, and only the iced one will spin when the diff is open. [Edit: the following is not right. So sorry. Further research confirms the (brake-activated) LSD is engaged by default in 2wd (at least on a Tacoma). Pushing the button just deactivates the throttle limiting. Thx @Angus Black.] You must push the button to get the (brake-activated) LSD behavior. 4:33 - again, give one wheel traction and you'll see the real difference with the LSD mode -- you'll actually go somewhere!

[@daryoushborja5115]

Paul Billings And Auto LSD works in 4wd .

[@AngusNB]

On page 247 of the owners manual, for my 2008 Tundra, it says "In the four−wheel drive mode, the system does not work.".

[@AngusNB]

Start at 10:00, he shows what happens when one wheel is on ice and one is on asphalt. With and without Auto LSD. From what I've been reading I think it's A-TRAC that's working here not Auto LSD. The *AUTO* part of Auto LSD does lead you to believe that it works automatically though.

[@fivecrosses9040]

The traction control has almost got me hit by oncoming traffic on two separate occasions while trying to enter from a parking lot. It scared the crap out of me. First truck I have had with it. The drive tire stops working and I am left coasting. That doesn’t do well in rush hour traffic. Turning off the traction control, gives power to the other wheel seems to help. Problem is that the driver must anticipate the loss of traction then before it happens so as to hit the button which is not easy to see. I have driven professionally on delivery routes for years and live in Iowa. Driving for 35 plus years and the traction control for me is useless, and has almost got me hit twice.

I have a 17 Tacoma and it's way different. 2wd normal limits engine rpm and is a one wheel wonder. 1 press of vsc and auto lsd engages. Press and hold the vsc and I'm full throttled one wheel wonder. 4 hi no buttons pushed has TRAC. Works like auto lsd front and rear. Kinda like ATRAC. Limited rpms. Press vsc once and I'm open diff with rpm limitation. Press and hold, and 4 wheel snow doughnuts are on! Low 4 is no vsc and no lsd. Options in low 4 is one of 5 Multi Terrain Select modes, crawl control and of coarse the rear locker.

[@ivanmedina8612]

so is it kinda like a rear differential locker on early model tacomas?

[@sotheamam1244]

So what you saying is for the lsd to be off both vsc and lsd lights has to be on

[@bigr5378]

If you push and hold the auto LSD a third time and hold it the traction control will read across the screen without being in 4-wheel drive

[@lindaschillinger5901]

What does the LSD stand for? You never said unless I missed it

[@hughallen6284]

In 2wd with LSD off, traction control does limit RPM and breaks the slipping wheel. it does not transfer torque to the non slipping wheel. LSD on transfers full unlimited power to the non slipping wheel and breaks the slipping wheel.

[@abrooks705]

That was helpful with the vsc stuff. I actually think pressing the traction control button once (2 wheel) engages a partial traction off mode. Pressing and holding seems to fully disengage traction control on mine. I also need to press and hold traction control in 4wd hi to fully disengage traction control. Could be different from yours as mine is a 2010.

[@scottrehak4076]

Very helpful, thanks!

[@211212112]

"The tundra has an open differential"..."Both rear wheels spin the same" This is why I don't like computers messing with things sometimes. It should be a true limited slip instead of a computer controlling braking and throttle.

[@gunsquawk4443]

Mine dont have an auto LSD button. It has a traction control

[@phoneuser3569]

You missed the fact that the "LSD" mode uses the rear ABS function to apply the brakes to the spinning wheel. It is a basic electronic LSD feature.

[@ericschaub303]

thats what I thought but he said both wheels spinning so I guess its not braking any of them

[@pryme2013]

Even with VSC off the truck will still pull power in hard charging 360deg donut action, figure eights etc. I have a 16.

[@stephenpratelsr.703]

This video is pretty accurate. However it's important to note that the auto LSD uses the ABS system to make a locking rear differential. so the traction control system is still functioning but what is not functioning is the engine management that cuts your throttle response. the traction control will use the ABS system, but will also limit your throttle inputs the main difference with auto LSD is that it doesn't limit your throttle input.

[@kjmdrumz3]

TRAC and ATRAC work best around 2,000rpms which is why the throttle is limited to that range.

[@WDW888]

Robert Howard thank you Robert, It dose have a remote starter do you think that could be the problem?

[@wildbill23c]

All the dash lights mean the computer needs re-calibrated at a dealership...Probably someone changed tire sizes, did a lift, or something which confused the electronics and as a result it lost its zero point calibration, which when reset just makes the truck think its at normal height or regular tires, or whatever was done to it. Although running the truck with all those lights flashing is far more fun, in case you haven't noticed with all those lights flashing you no longer have ABS, traction control, etc....the truck at that point is a totally different animal. Take it out in an empty lot and do donuts all day long with it...I left the gas cap off on my 08 Tundra, it set off the stupid check engine light. A friend of mine had a "Scan Tool", yeah well long story short it wasn't just a scan tool it was a programmer for his Dodge Ram pickup...he hooked it up and set off every damn idiot light on the dash in my truck...but man the driving of the truck was much more fun with all the electronic shit disabled. No, disconnecting the battery doesn't reset it either. Its a dealer reprogram that needs done, it cost me $95 back then.

[@forwardplans8168]

Do you have a Torsen Dif? My Sequoia has at least the front diff as a Torsen. As I understand, if one wheel loses traction, the Torsen acts as a locked diff. It appears there is not a center diff also.

[@wildbill23c]

Nope, completely open differential. None of the Tundras, at least none of 2nd gen tundras ever have had a limited slip or locker, pretty sad when the Tacoma and many high end luxury SUV's have limited slip or lockers yet the Tundra has neither.

[@bobbates1542]

Should leave my Tundra in Auto LSD always?

[@wildbill23c]

It doesn't stay, every time you shut the truck off it turns all that shit back to normal. This is why I kept my 2005 Tundra and got rid of the problem plagued 2008 Tundra I had....the 05 Tundra only has ABS, no traction control or anything else to get in the way...does much better in snow/ice conditions, much more predictable, and doesn't cut power when you are trying to pull out of a parking lot and into traffic which is far more of a danger than a spinning wheel.

[@mattbenson2497]

Amazing how many people don't know how to use their trucks I see videos with guys driving around with their truck beeping at them because they think they are in low but they didn't shift to neutral so the truck is alarming and they just think it's normal to have beeping in low..

Its the ABS system engaging to slow/stop the spinning wheel. The abs module is under the hood so you'll hear it clicking and clattering along as it tries to gain traction at the wheels.

Hell my 21 year old Jeep Grand Cherokee has a limited slip rear differential, works great in both 2WD/4WD, no electronic crap needed, it just works when it is needed...well works all the time just releases when you turn, so technically its locked all the time except when going around a turn.

Auto LSD or traction control? I have a 15' without a LSD button, only traction control button...

[@wildbill23c]

None of them have an LSD button, its all done by the traction control button...read the manual, the settings changed a few years ago. I know with my 08 I held down the traction control button to disable it and activate the ALSD (frying your brakes system). Also I'd turn off the RSCA too whenever I was offroad, not sure it would actually prevent the stupid side airbags from going off but it was an option so I disabled the RSCA anytime I was offroad.

What type of rims are those as well as the offset and size of them?

[@justinfontaine5539]

And you don't show what buttons you are hitting to engage the different modes? Fail
