Junior, thanks. I had no idea that my 22 Tundra required spark plug changes every 40,000 miles. Sounds like we are back to the days of copper plugs. Unfortunately, there is a lot more crap on top of these engines that makes it very difficult to DIY anything other than oil changes and air filter changes.
40k miles for spark plugs seems to frequent turbos or not. I have a 17 tundra to and changed my plugs at 100k and they still looked fine. Do the new tundras have iridium plugs like the older tundras? Thanks for the vid.
Thanks for the informative video. You recommend changing the oil every 5k miles. If I average 5k miles per year, would you recommend changing the oil every 6 months? Thanks!
Great and very informative information. Do you have a video changing the rear brake pads esp to disengage the auto parking brake system for the 22+ Tundra?
My 24 I forcemax just hit 12k and it already needs tires after got aligned at dealership 6 months ago, since day one it was not aligned. Now the 4 tires on outside wall are worn out. Do you know about a recall on that? I seen it on a website. Thanks
There is a recall on certain tundra/sequoia models with updated alignment specifications and tire replacement due to accelerated/premature tire wear. Check into it.
I already did the spark plugs it’s a lot of bolts to be remove and wire harness to remove the clips and bolts for you to access the spark plug coil plugs. It took me all day but I was slow and careful. I did also coolant it was drain and fill. I don’t see the drain on the inverter coolant? Where is it? I only suction it on the top
2024 Tundra Platinum Iforce max I change oil 1st at 1000 miles 2nd at 5000 and every 5000. And because of turbos, I put premium fuel from day one . But for people who drives a lot, you’ll be at service every month with oil change. And my tundra does the same thing with the tires. the outside edges are wearing a lot even after alignment done by Lexus because Toyota couldn’t do it.
The spark plug at 40k. I don't get it. That seems so insanely short. I remember having cars back in the 80s that used 30k intervals on copper tips. The iridiums I used on my Hondas were a 100k interval, and they still looked decent when I did them at 90-110k. How are these plugs looking when they come out of that Tundra at the 40k mileage?
Yes, it shares the same transmission fluid with the transmission. While you are servicing the transmission, the hybrid motor fluid is being changed as well. They are connected internally together.
I own one of these *oes and im comfortable with doing most of this diy but transmission and spark plug service is where I start to clench a little 😂 I better learn before it’s too late 😂
Excellent video!...random question, my former Lexus tech (now Indy shop) says that for the 2017 Sienna, the 2GR-FKS engine, changing spark plugs at 60k is a waste of money. He said that it is just for emissions, and that I shouldn't follow the manual and to do it at 120k instead. He said he will change them if I want to throw money away. Thoughts?
What's the definition of long-term ownership the motor is going to grenade eventually. Need to bring back the V8, I got 2015 that I bought new and I'm currently sitting at 417,000 zero issues
Just passed 41K on my 2023 Sequoia. They said i needed my spark plugs changed. But did not have them in house and said it was a 4 hour job. I didn't like that part.
Better off not buying these junk Toyota with twin turbo or the stupid four banger turbo and Toyota asking way too high of a price. Something built in Mexico people don’t buy we need to teach these car manufacturers a lesson. Let them lose money.
That's easy to say. All manufacturers have these issues. Remember Fords Bronco(the remake version)issue? They had Broncos blowing up at 5k .... ultimately Ford had to replace 100k motors. I think it was faulty valves that was the issue.
You are correct. My 2022 blew up at 28,000 miles. However, this truck is built in Texas not Mexico. Other than the engine failure, I had no issues with the truck. As far as pricing goes, they’re way more competitive than Ford or Ram.
@Helpus2024-h6j Agreed. They also had the same issue with some Lexus models, and they are made in Japan. I think it was just a freak incident. They are making every effort to fix it, though. I will have a 22 with a brand new engine... I'm happy with that. I'm not jumping for joy, but it could be worse.
I don’t mind do the maintenance on this Gen3 TT tundra , I absolutely love this truck my favorite vehicle I’ve owned in 28 years !
Couldn’t agree with you more!
As many have said, great video. Keep them coming.
Thank you, I appreciate the support.
For spark plugs that’s why I love my 2024 tacoma 4 cylinder turbo because it’s very diy friendly and easy to get to
Great visual aids. Keep the info coming. Thank you.
Thank you, will do.

Great video. Thank you!
Thank you. Are the boots on the coil packs replaceable like on the Fords? Should they be replaced when doing plugs?
No, the boots are not replaceable and are not required if you are just changing out the plugs.
Thanks for the informative video. You recommend changing the oil every 5k miles. If I average 5k miles per year, would you recommend changing the oil every 6 months? Thanks!
Yes, correct. To some, it may seem excessive, but you will never cause damage to an engine by keeping clean oil in there. Especially a turbo engine.
Thank you, I’ll be doing all this myself! Saved me so much money lol
@@TheYotaChannel Thanks for the quick response and for sharing your expertise!
Great and very informative information. Do you have a video changing the rear brake pads esp to disengage the auto parking brake system for the 22+ Tundra?
Would you recommend doing a break in oil change at 1000 miles or is that not needed?
It's not needed. It's one of those things you do to be on the safe side.
Yota so if your not hauling nothing at what miles would you recommend for differential oil change, transfer case oil change ?!
I would change it at 60k miles.
My 24 I forcemax just hit 12k and it already needs tires after got aligned at dealership 6 months ago, since day one it was not aligned. Now the 4 tires on outside wall are worn out. Do you know about a recall on that? I seen it on a website. Thanks
There is a recall on certain tundra/sequoia models with updated alignment specifications and tire replacement due to accelerated/premature tire wear. Check into it.
There is a recall on the TRD Pro tires only as far as I know. I just got mine replaced under the recall due to premature wear.
@@jasondavid4375 thanks in info, did they contact you in regards to it or was during a service ?
Should I change the spark plugs at 40k or wait for the engine replacement?
Does your Tundra VIN fall under the recall? If so, then I would wait for engine replacement if I were you.
@@Scuba_steve953 I’m at 54k now and haven’t changed my plugs yet.
I would wait. My Tundras motor was just ordered. It should be here in 5 to 8 days.
Yota where do you look to see if your VIN falls under the recall?
@@TheYotaChannel my Toyota app says it. And I received a letter from Toyota saying the same thing about replacing my engine under the recall.

Owners manual says to change plugs at 40 k for emissions warranty.

The iridiums I used on my Hondas were a 100k interval, and they still looked decent when I did them at 90-110k. How are these plugs looking when they come out of that Tundra at the 40k mileage?
Up sale
Any requirement for the timing chains
No, there is no maintenance for the timing chain.
When I had my 2011 SC tundra I changed the spark plugs at 100k.
Yea, on the previous gens, 100k miles was the standard for spark plug replacement, and they were easy to change as well.
Nice video thank you!
Is there any Mx required for the hybrid motor mounter between engine and trans?
Yes, it shares the same transmission fluid with the transmission. While you are servicing the transmission, the hybrid motor fluid is being changed as well. They are connected internally together.
I own one of these *oes and im comfortable with doing most of this diy but transmission and spark plug service is where I start to clench a little 😂 I better learn before it’s too late 😂
Yea, i hear you. The plugs are buried underneath wires and hoses. 😬😬
Take fill plugs out first on front rear, and, transfer case first.
Does transmission have a filter to change?
No filter change.
I believe the plugs for the tcase are one time use.
Is it the plug/bolt one time or is it the gasket/washer that is one time use?
What if my hybrid runs light duty (no towing or heavy hauling) most of the time; is there a different spark plug recommendation?
Hey, no, Toyota still recommends that the plugs be changed at 40k miles.
I really appreciate your transparency; I subscribed today because of it!

Question if I get get my 3rd gen tundra aftermarket 3 inches lift since the TRD lift kit on stop sale. Will it automatically void my warranty?
Thank you for sharing 😊
Nice video thanks for the info…
Thanks for watching.

I thought spark plugs these days were supposed to be good for 100K
@jamesraider5888 I'm sure they are. But if you plan on keeping the vehicle for a long time it will not hurt to change them at 40K a few times.
Thank you
Nice video. And this motor takes Premium gas.. I think.
$$
Nope 87 octane is recommended.
@@vitkobylka6432you’ll get better MPG and throttle response with premium
I had to change my brakes at 37k miles
Yup, sounds about right.
Better off with the 2nd generation
Better keep up with coolant changes or you’ll have head gasket issues, every engine has it’s quirks
Sounds like a money pit and whole lot of dealership customer lobby time
How is this different from the other manufacturers?
Better off not buying these junk Toyota with twin turbo or the stupid four banger turbo and Toyota asking way too high of a price. Something built in Mexico people don’t buy we need to teach these car manufacturers a lesson. Let them lose money.

Tundras aren’t made in Mexico
