So i have a 2008 Tundra, I have a Check Engine Light, 4LO Blinks constantly and VCS is off. Clearing it with code reader and popping the battery terminal no longer fixes this issue. Any Ideas?
Have a 2007 with 208,000 miles. Never had any of these issues described in the video. Only issues were water pump went out at 80,000 miles and starter went out at 193,000 miles. These trucks are unreal how well they run. Do a lot of towing and hard work with truck.
The main problem with the Tundras is that they don't die. So if your married like me and can only get a new truck once your old one breaks make sure you get the tundra you really love because once you commit your never gonna own another truck again.
2007 tundra 110,000 miles still going strong. Replaced water pump at around 55k. Rear shocks at 110k. One caliper brake I believe at 95k. Sparkplugs 100k. And all the regular maintenance. My only concern is the rust underneath the vehicle.
I got one for you.... This is for those of us who don't buy into the "lifetime" transmission fluid, and want to drop the pan to change the filter, then maybe flush the old fluid. Toyota decided to use relatively long, skinny bolts to hold the pan to the transmission case. On top of that, the pan bolts that run along the right and left sides of the trans go all the way through the trans case, and protrude out of the top. This allows gravity to pull water, and salt down into the threads. This, in conjunction with the aluminium case, and steel bolts results in severe corrosion. The heads snap off the bolts, and those suckers fight you to the death drilling them out. Do yourself a favor, and take a look at your pan bolts. If you replace them, throw some anti seize on them first.
Secondary air pump bypass kit, Hewett industries, works perfect. I’ve had mine for 4 years and never had an issue. I replaced the pumps once and they failed again so I installed the bypass.
I've had my tundra for 6 years. Got it off the lot at 64,xxx thousand miles..hasn't given me a problem.just have done regular maintenance on it and other than that no issues. Toyota is one of my top favorite brands and always will be.👌🏼💯
Good video. No scare tactics, just the facts. I have an 06, bought new, 260,000 no major issues. A 13, bought new, 113.000 no issues. A 10 Sequoia, bought used with 198,000, has 220,000 now, no issues. The 5.7's get better mileage than the 4.7.
Yep. I have an 08 tundra with 320,000 miles. I’ve put in a bypass kit for the air induction pumps, replaced my front hubs 3 times and rear hubs once, and I’m currently dealing with a check engine like for catylatic efficiency that I’m pretty sure is an O2 sensor issue. So far no issues with the exhaust manifold. Ignition coils have obviously been replaced due to general wear and tear. So far this has been an absolute tank of a truck. No major issues at all.
My 08 has 264 runs like a raped aped im only the 3rd owner and they babied it. Last owner was a surveyer so its all highway miles. I was skepitcal I called the local toyota shop and askdd whats the highest milledge truck they service. Amd it was a 07 with 540k😅😅
Mine has 204,### miles after 13 years. It’s only has needed the following repairs 1.water pump 2.alternator 3. Universal joint on drive shaft 4.Regular maintenance and wear n tear parts filters pads fluids. I’ve only owned Toyota trucks but this model has been the best for cost of ownership
I just bought an 07 regular cab short bed 4x4, only 38K on the odometer. Might be the lowest mileage version of that truck on the planet. No rust, hoping to squeeze 10 years out of it.
Excellent video sir! I have one with 240k miles on it, only replaced the timing belt and water pump 🤞, runs incredibly smooth. Very pleased with the Tundra.
I have a 2010, but my buddy has a 2000 1st gen 4.6 with almost 300k on it. T belts w/water pump (normal mileage replacement), regular service, one starter, coil packs, and that's it. Still runs like a champ!
😂 my 07 5.7 tundra 518,600 miles first set of plugs 401,000 cause first coil pack went out decided to change them looked like new.1 new belt tires and brakes still runs like a horse just now getting 17.5 miles to the gallon. Fixing to buy a new weekend truck but my 07 will still be getting 150 to 250 miles a day.
I own a 2011 V-8 CrewMax 263K, I replaced the spiral cable twice, found out the entire truck is built around the starter, lol replaced that and besides tires, batteries etc. that’s all I’ve done up until this past weekend. I had the 4LO, traction control and Check engine light flashing but it would run fine. I cleaned the throttle body as a precaution, it was really dirty. The symptom lights cleared themselves before I cleaned it though but it’s still running fine. For the life of the vehicle I have made it a habit to add fuel injector cleaner about every third fill up. The key is I change brands each time. I’ll use B-12, Lucas, Seafoam, and several others because they generally have different cleaning agents. So that’s my story and as a guy that loves the GM platform and has lots of affection for the F-250 I can say I’ve never regretted a day owning the Tundra, it is the most reliable vehicle anyone could own.
Accurate about the secondary air pump. Went bad on my truck twice. 1st was free for a recall and 2nd time I bought a kit off ebay to bypass them. You don't need them for emotions in most states.
Wrong about the secondary air pumps. If one or both are stuck in the open position the truck will go into limp mode and you'll have no power. The dash will light up like a Christmas tree. Toyota will charge you several thousand to fix it, even though it's a known flaw in the design. Hewitt Tech makes a bypass setup that requires no wire cutting and looks factory.
@@jwilliams6194 My Tundra had the same issue and went into limp mode. Fortunately I was within the 10 year extended warranty for that fix so nothing out of pocket. Invoice said 3700 dollar repair.
The only one that’s tundra specific is the secondary air pump that the 2nd gens had issues with early on... the title of the video is a bit misleading isn’t it?
I have a 2010 and love it all seem to be able to be fixed in my driveway
3 ปีที่แล้ว +9
while watching this video somehow i knew that you are a owner of tundra. how's that? no matter it is a story about problems, it is obvious that you love this car. cheers ;)
I have a 2014. I have replaced all of the door lock actuators. Antenna surround. And serpentine belt, idler, and belt tensioner. I have had zero issues with the issues mentioned in this video thus far, thankfully!
My parents had their 08 highlander bought at 35k mi and sold at 460k mi ….the car was still mechanically in perfect condition and only repairs needed was wheel bearings and struts some 5-7 times, but that’s bc of all the potholes in New England and power window motor
2010 4.6 v8 4wd- so far changed both air check valves and pumps… $1000 for parts labor myselfed. Side note, you may buy an air pump and smog pump, they are the exact same bank 1 and bank 2 even though theyre named different. Also my passenger right tire wears down the outer edge of the tire 9000% faster than anywhere else
@Lawrence Chiasson Have you experienced this, I have two rust free 13 year old trucks, except the little you get on the welds, and my friend has an 07 with no rust either, and we're in northern NY.
My secondary air pump went bad and the truck went into limp mode. Toyota warranties that part for 10 years after first use so mine was barely covered. It was a 3700 dollar repair.
Biggest problem with my Tundra is the wiring is tasty and field mice moved in and chewed up the engine wiring harness. Had to replace everything at a cost of over $5,000!
💪🏻 bought a used 07 with the 5.7l 8ft bed only issue i come across is the bed which is not mentioned in this vid everything u mentioned i consider maintenance and happens to every vehicle not toyota specific but when their built this well not much u can point out 🤷♂️ got it for 1500$ had 150k put 10k on it and have only had to do oil changes love this truck i wanted a gm truck but im so happy i found this deal now i just been to replace the bed since its rusting out and the previous owner didnt bother taking it in for the tsb or recall w.e it was
I have a tundra and l had the problems with the Air pumps & l replaced both of them and the valve on the top but l still have check engine light and a code P0419 that says secondary Air injection system Relay B control circuit. And is running bad. The problem is that l can not locate that Relay. I went to a toyota dealer and try to get that Relay but the guy at counter he couldn't find the location of Relay "B" is a tundra 2007 5.7
My 2017 Tundra 5.7 hates going in and out of 4x4. Always had since it was new. At 35,9050 miles I finally took it in because the warranty was about up. They replaced the solenoid ($800 job from dealership) . After about a month it still has issues. Now I just live with it 😏.
2012 Tundra, 5.7L. Looks like my timing chain tensioner just acted up. Chain noises, not slap-slap, after 1 minute and for 1 mile, then it's Great rest of day. Bought Feb. 2023 at 135k miles. Dealer serviced history, no accidents, oil changes done on time except last one. Problem started around June of 2023.
I'm getting A solid ABS & Traction control light & the hi lo lights are blinking. No check engine light. The code says speed sensor. I've changed all speed sensor & lights are still on....help
I have a 08 tundra it has 105k on it no problems also it has been in Alaska its whole life if those issues are the biggest problems than I'm not worried
155k lost transmission . Rebuilt it. The bizarre one i got a seat belt one. Earlier models the water pump leaked at 60k. 2010 on Toyota water pump model changed. The new I put in mine is still going strong . I put a full exhaust as tbr stock one corroded away.
My transmission seems to be making a loud rattling sound. And there’s dried up red/white crust along the front lip of the pan and the cooler hoses. Not sure if I trust Toyota at this point
2011 tundra only issue I ever had was left side cover oil leak I was shocked to find out that it’s a pace that you apply not a real gasket. What’s that all about?
My secondary air Crapped out and the truck wouldn't go over 45mph !!!! Best thing to do is Delete It ! there is a kit ..I bought the truck New April 07 and have 314,000 miles on it now.
The biggest complaint most 2nd gen Tundra owners have is the engine tick caused by faulty Cam chain tensioner. I’m surprised that wasn’t first on this list.
I'm having issues with mine. Rough idle, stalls but then turns back on fine & lack of power. I've changed the spark plugs, the idle air control valve, the throttle body, and the O2 censors. Still having issues.
2016 5.7 fuel pump and fuel module at 41,000 miles. Dealer was full of Tundras with same issue. Why is this not being told to owners? Recall for 2018 and above, but all earlier have same pump.
I can only speak to this video, which was specifically the 2nd gen tundra, 2007-2013. Not sure what's happened, but the issues seem to have grown in the 14 and up, why I'm keeping my 08's until they disintegrate, looks like it's going to be a while.
I have a 2007 with 300k miles and have had no issues. Only have the ticking of the manifold he mentions maybe but it doesn’t effect how the truck drives so I havnt fixed it.
Is the cam tower leak common in the 07 model? I tend hear that people have the issue with 2008+ but what about the 07? If not, then what did they do differently. Also, I’m currently dealing with secondary air injection issues for the first time in my 07 5.7L with 215k miles. If I get the whole thing fixed, would it reoccur? The dealer quoted me $2100 to fix.
Was getting itchy palms with little red dots. Thought it was eczema or something then figured out the door handles and bed caps have fiberglass splinters. I avoid touching them and the itching went away.
You forgot to include "THIS Tundra" in your description. If it was for all 2nd gen Tundras, then you definitely forgot the water pump, which typically lasts 60-90K.
Good evening I have a 2007 Toyota tundra SR5 4.7 l., I have replaced a Secondary Air injection check valve on bank one and bank 2 twice .what causes condensation getting into those check valves you please help me. I've replaced these parts but the problem continues every year
Toyota tech here..yea, so these are not all that common on the Tundra. The problems that should have made your list are leaking cam towers, drivers side timing chain tensioner failure, front diff needle bearings on the drivers side, antenna grommet and RUST!
That's a good list for the 4.7 Tundy, but for 5.7s and 4.6s there are much bigger problems like cam tower leaks and valley coolant leaks, to name a few. 4.7s are definitely the best engine choice, too bad they quit making them.
"Tundy"...? Don't be that guy. The 1st gen 4.7 I have doesn't have those issues. Also, replacing the parts with OEM parts will make you a much happier truck owner instead of buying cheaper AZ-AA-OR offerings. DENSO is your friend.
A little help??? How many speed sensors are there? I got a P0500 code today. Abs, brake, and air bag light came on, and stuck in park unless I override it manually. I have a 2007 sr5 2wd 4.7.
The secondary air pumps dont blow aor into the exhaust. It blow air into a valve thing that sit on top of the engine in the back, and it seems like it blows air right into thw engine
I have 2011 tundra I got hit between passenger door frame and bed and my airbag got turned off and it showing on dash and seatbelt passenger keep jumping with and without pluging in in seatbelt? So what is the problem and what can I do to fix that?
how about the reverse light not working on one side?? I have an 2007 and I changed to LED bulbs on some of the front and rear lights. I noticed I couldn't do the brake likes as they would not work. I am not using any resters which is why I only replaced those that wouldn't affect the whole light system. Meaning blinkers wouldn't work if I went entirely all LED. Anyhow so my rears I believe I just have the blinkers and revers LED. Reverse. had been working fine, then they went out, then now only one seemed to go out. Just replaced both again and the right side still won't work. It's either a back up switch or something wrong on that side or maybe because they are LED bulbs? Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you.

Good to know. I'm married 28 years and I expect my 2021 Tundra to last at least that long.

so, just basic maintenance issues then? did these have the frame rust issues like the Tacoma's?
Yes
155k lost transmission . Rebuilt it. The bizarre one i got a seat belt one. Earlier models the water pump leaked at 60k. 2010 on Toyota water pump model changed. The new I put in mine is still going strong . I put a full exhaust as tbr stock one corroded away.

My transmission seems to be making a loud rattling sound. And there’s dried up red/white crust along the front lip of the pan and the cooler hoses. Not sure if I trust Toyota at this point
2011 tundra only issue I ever had was left side cover oil leak
I was shocked to find out that it’s a pace that you apply not a real gasket. What’s that all about?
My secondary air Crapped out and the truck wouldn't go over 45mph !!!! Best thing to do is Delete It ! there is a kit ..I bought the truck New April 07 and have 314,000 miles on it now.
The biggest complaint most 2nd gen Tundra owners have is the engine tick caused by faulty Cam chain tensioner. I’m surprised that wasn’t first on this list.
Whats the price of new cam chain tensioner
@@vicks31032400 to 4500 . Have to pull whole engine apart pretty much
I'm having issues with mine. Rough idle, stalls but then turns back on fine & lack of power. I've changed the spark plugs, the idle air control valve, the throttle body, and the O2 censors. Still having issues.
Just bought a 2008 Tundra and it drives like I'm running over a rumble strip ! Hopefully the bearings like you said. THANKS !
V6
Have a 2010 4.6L. Only issue has been a transmission seal and power steering rack. 125,000 miles.
My 2016 Tundra just turned 82k and all I've done is changed brake pads.
It was driving perfect engine and transmission work for 100%
Can you tell me where the Idle Air Control Valve is located on a 2008 Toyota Sequoia SR5? Or is it built into the throttle body itself?
08 toyota tundra 367000 miles only replaced altemator hoses n fluid changes
Changed my hubs yesterday 😂
On my 07 4.0 sr5 with 150k miles
What is that ticking noise on cold start up I drive my son to school in morning and when I stop I can hear it untill the truck warms up.
Substitute 1 quart of Lucas oil Stabilizer next oil change. Should stop noise
HELLYEAH...in other words
Bulletproof
2016 5.7 fuel pump and fuel module at 41,000 miles. Dealer was full of Tundras with same issue. Why is this not being told to owners? Recall for 2018 and above, but all earlier have same pump.
I can only speak to this video, which was specifically the 2nd gen tundra, 2007-2013. Not sure what's happened, but the issues seem to have grown in the 14 and up, why I'm keeping my 08's until they disintegrate, looks like it's going to be a while.
I have a 2007 with 300k miles and have had no issues. Only have the ticking of the manifold he mentions maybe but it doesn’t effect how the truck drives so I havnt fixed it.
Damn! Lol
Thanks bro, really good to know. I have is 2011 Tundra and thank God its still running great. I'm definitely saving this video. 😁👍
+Juan J Solis Thanks for the feedback!

Thank you very much for this program
Great video but holy hell that truck is so rusted it is a few years from being unsafe to drive.
Is the cam tower leak common in the 07 model? I tend hear that people have the issue with 2008+ but what about the 07? If not, then what did they do differently. Also, I’m currently dealing with secondary air injection issues for the first time in my 07 5.7L with 215k miles. If I get the whole thing fixed, would it reoccur? The dealer quoted me $2100 to fix.
My 07 4.7 Tundra has the cam tower leak.
Didn't mention how difficult it is to replace exhaust manifolds. You have to disconnect the engine mounts and jack up the motor.
Headers...quit crying
What do you think of the 07 crew cab with the 4.0 v6.? I'm not planning on hauling anything
So of the top 5 issues only like 1 actually affects drivability?
For future reference.. Please also mention the price bracket in which you can buy these parts
Thanks for sharing,👍👍
My 2007 Toyota Tundra 5.7 starts but it won't come on, what can be wrong with it?
Thanks for those pointers.
Was getting itchy palms with little red dots. Thought it was eczema or something then figured out the door handles and bed caps have fiberglass splinters. I avoid touching them and the itching went away.
toyota cheaped out on everything on the 2nd gens, the headliner is fiberglass as well.
You forgot to include "THIS Tundra" in your description. If it was for all 2nd gen Tundras, then you definitely forgot the water pump, which typically lasts 60-90K.
Good evening I have a 2007 Toyota tundra SR5 4.7 l., I have replaced a Secondary Air injection check valve on bank one and bank 2 twice .what causes condensation getting into those check valves you please help me. I've replaced these parts but the problem continues every year
! Does the 2009 tundra 4.7 have one pump or 2? I only saw one Under the wheel well passenger side.
May I ask for feedback in a second generation Toyota Tundra with the 4.0 v6 engine?
Toyota tech here..yea, so these are not all that common on the Tundra. The problems that should have made your list are leaking cam towers, drivers side timing chain tensioner failure, front diff needle bearings on the drivers side, antenna grommet and RUST!
Leaking cam tower covers here!
Ding Ding Ding!! We have a winner. I would add Secondary air valves to the list.
I own a 07 300 k miles and that’s my baby ! They don’t make them like tho anymore
That's a good list for the 4.7 Tundy, but for 5.7s and 4.6s there are much bigger problems like cam tower leaks and valley coolant leaks, to name a few. 4.7s are definitely the best engine choice, too bad they quit making them.
+Wade Thanks for checking us out! 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c
"Tundy"...? Don't be that guy.
The 1st gen 4.7 I have doesn't have those issues. Also, replacing the parts with OEM parts will make you a much happier truck owner instead of buying cheaper AZ-AA-OR offerings. DENSO is your friend.
@@somemedic beware of denso first time fit. Chinese garbage
A little help??? How many speed sensors are there? I got a P0500 code today. Abs, brake, and air bag light came on, and stuck in park unless I override it manually. I have a 2007 sr5 2wd 4.7.
So I currently bought a 2018 trd sport with 13k miles but I noticed it’s a jittery ride and some vibration is that normal?
What about the timing chain cover gasket leaking
The secondary air pumps dont blow aor into the exhaust. It blow air into a valve thing that sit on top of the engine in the back, and it seems like it blows air right into thw engine
I have a 2013 and I have the wheel bearing issue now.😢
Is bank 2 sensor 2 the sensor after the catalic converter? Driver side?
Great video!!! Thanks guys!!!
I have 2011 tundra I got hit between passenger door frame and bed and my airbag got turned off and it showing on dash and seatbelt passenger keep jumping with and without pluging in in seatbelt? So what is the problem and what can I do to fix that?
#6 Floor bed rusting out from the bottom from the spot welds.
I'm surprised he didn't mention the electronic 4x4. The way it's tied together with the ABS it's not the most reliable.
+Jason Brown Thanks for the feedback!
Had an 07 for 11 years and no problems
Should i buy 2008 tundra truck mileage220000 already it’s too much to confuse please reply thank
The biggest problem with Tundras, or any Toyota for that matter, is the damn chrome bumpers that fall apart after 7 years from road salt!
Good thing I live in the south
Me to bro no salt in Dixie
What about vibration in the front on the passenger side
how about the reverse light not working on one side?? I have an 2007 and I changed to LED bulbs on some of the front and rear lights. I noticed I couldn't do the brake likes as they would not work. I am not using any resters which is why I only replaced those that wouldn't affect the whole light system. Meaning blinkers wouldn't work if I went entirely all LED. Anyhow so my rears I believe I just have the blinkers and revers LED. Reverse. had been working fine, then they went out, then now only one seemed to go out. Just replaced both again and the right side still won't work. It's either a back up switch or something wrong on that side or maybe because they are LED bulbs? Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you.
