I'm kind of surprised that you are promoting something like this,but then again, I probably shouldn't be.
I don't know the exact year Toyota updated that air injection pump, but they fixed this "water problem" that was very common in the 2007 and 08 models.
On later models, when you shut the truck off it will do a quick "air purge" to blow the water outside of the pump so the internal valve won't rust shut or open (which is the real failure),. You can hear it when it does this, and now you rarely have to ever replace this part.
They changed the body in 2007. To look like this. Pretty close to the same all the way up to 2021. However the seats changed in like 2013 or 2014. They got ugly and so did the interior. It looks better with the redesign for 2021. However reliability is a big question mark for the new generation.
There's a difference between Troubleshooting & Shotgunning .

Car Wizard is actually an alien! Can you believe that?
Bigfoot takes pictures of the Wizard 😂
😂
The Nissan titan is fine. Just stay away from the Cummins v8 diesel
My brother has one. Loves it!
I would love to have a look at the VW Phateon in the background if possible
I love this beautiful Tundra, this is when they made them right before Toyota put the twin turbo in them
Not to mention, the new ones are butt-ugly, in my opinion.
310,000 miles on my 1993 Toyota pickup that I bought new. Still running fine and burning no oil.
Ive heard this a million times in my career "My buddy is a mechanic/engineer and he Really knows whats wrong!" 🤣🤣🤣 let him fix it I'd say
This is the only major problem with these engine. Other than that they are bulletproof. Just change the oil every 5,000 miles and flush the coolant every 50,000 miles. If you neglect the coolant on these, you may blow a head gasket. The Car Care Nut just had a 200 series Land Cruiser in his shop for head gasket failures. The customer had to pay $6,000 for the repair. The head gasket failed because they didn’t flush the coolant frequently enough and the coolant ate the head gasket up. Do a coolant flush on these every 5 years or 50,000 miles whichever comes first. If you do that, you should be fine. This also applies to the GR series V6 and especially the 1.8 hybrid engines like in the Prius, Corolla Hybrid, and CT200h as well. They are also known for head gasket issues at higher mileage. Anyone who has a third gen Prius or later, CT200h, or Corolla Hybrid: do not drive if there’s no catalytic converter because the catalytic converter is cooled by the coolant. If you hear an unusual loud noise from the exhaust, turn it off asap. Catalytic converters are a target for thieves worldwide. It’s happened in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and Australia as well. I bet there’s more countries that have this issue.
We already believe in car Wizards why should we not believe in Little Green Men and ghosts
I've heard of Tundras lasting 1,000,000 miles
If you drive it 55 mph and do religious maintenence along a stretch of road where you are unlikely to get into an accident with the timing belt version of the V8. Then yes. You might get a million out of it.
It was Goblins. What’s wrong with you all? 🙄
Maintenance.
Is the key to any vehicle lasting. I had a late 80's Chevrolet small pickup truck in my shop with
426,000 miles on the clock. The only thing it needed was the plastic clutch self adjuster. Do as the wizard tells you maintenance maintenance maintenance.
I can't wait for the new channel. I enjoy strage phenomena. So does my zombie 😊. Seriously though, sounds great
My Ford Focus has 297154 miles on it now, manual transmission
Greatest trick the devil ever pulled was making you think he doesn't exist.
Im convinced the wizard has reptile blood in him.
My 07 Tundra 5.7 has 308k. Run great. I do all the maintenance. Live in snow/salt road heaven. Harley any rust because I hooked my outside hose to the house hot/cold water. Since the closest car wash is 30 miles away.
I'm sure you've heard this before but...
You really should start a group of car professionals that are as well trained as you. Start classes, get them certified "by you" across the country!
I know it'll be a huge headache but for some reason? We can no longer trust the garages we take our vehicles to.
Charge the crap out of them but train them well! We need more car techs besides what we see being pumped out today by what we see today, trained by certified schools.
I know. An insurmountable challenge.
Whiskey dents on a pickup truck, gives them character!!!~ Great content Wizard!!!!~
Apparently many pickup trucks that drive through high water appear to do it successfully, but pay the price later on.
Daniel is working hard lately!
we have a 2007 an the air pumps went bad in it we just unplugged them an has been running fine like that for the past 5 years
Best gen of Tundra, we have a family member that has a 2016 in the amazing 1794 trim and it has never failed him.
How Toyota went from a million mile capable Tundra to the new one that blows its engine before even reaching 10k miles still baffles me.
As soon as I saw the flashing warning lamps I knew it was either air injection pumps & valves or something had chewed the knock sensor harness.
There is an updated part number from Toyota for the injection pump intake pipes. One of the most common failures for 07 to 09 3UR-FE Tundra's.
The secret to Toyota reliability is you have to maintain them. As an owner of a 26 yr old T100, I can vouch for this. Surprised the other shop in town hasn't figured out how to use a scan tool yet.
Air pumps aren't mandated by the government, the emissions after start up is. Manufacturers use different methods to achieve the goal - pre cats come to mind.
That's why in the newer models (2.5 gen) they have the pumps run for a second or two when you shut the truck off. It's to clear any liquid out of it.
Fram filters used to have a corporate slogan, "You can pay me now, or you can pay me later". I am so delighted with my 2007 Camry taking me all over the country trouble free. But I don't drive through standing water or a hurricane.
For a guy who is so methodical and comprehensive in his vehicle diagnosis your "Spirts & Spooks" channel sounds like quite a departure from your normal bill of fare. It's nothing I'm interested in so I'm sorry to say I won't be joining you there.
So a freedom restricting motor ruining junk parts 😂 hell no get those cats off of their straight pipes all day freedom. Lol smog checks 😂😂😂😂 what a joke that is hard passsss
When you hear Wizard bring up the Acadia again you know it is NOT one of his favorite SUV's! You can hear it in his voice ha ha!
I was a good subscriber and watched Mrs Wizard interior review this time. Great work Mrs Wizard......
@14:42 "doctor doesnt diagnose cancer through emails and phone call" 🤣🤣
I love you 😘 😊
Had the same issue with my 07 tundra with the 4.7 motor many years ago. It was covered under warranty. Dash lights were lit up like a Christmas tree and it went into limp mode. I wish I never sold that truck- best vehicle I ever owned.
But the big question is :
How the water go inside the system ? 🤷♂️
He briefly mentioned it. Maybe they drove through a lot of water or deep water. The base of it was though that the part just isn’t located in a good spot so they get water contamination
I was just looking at these used with 200k+ miles. Surprisingly, you can find the early years for sale in the 10k range
The early ones found to be more reliable in the long run!
@marwanjleid5712 I recently bought a house and need a pickup. Don't trust the American brands. 10k is my budget, and the 2007-2008 with 150k to 200+ low 10s surprised me. The same year, Tacoma's 15k minimum
Even, slightly older Tundra's can have problems, too.
7 minutes and 30 seconds before you get to the meat of the video - you are about to lose me and maybe others.
Except for the 13.8 mpg average I love these old trucks!
The owner definitely got his money`s worth out of that truck.
Why did you minimize the importance of limiting exhaust emissions? Sure it is in response to government requirements but so are things like seatbelts, airbags, making pouring carcinogens into waterways illegal, etc. All are in our collective best interests even if we prefer to complain about them. Wizard, you are too smart for that!.
In reality, the time the systems are active is so short that they're pretty much inconsequential. Less than a minute in most cases, and at low airflows. So it's just another thing that goes wrong that may push an owner to just buying a new vehicle, which is actually far worse for the environment.
Hopefully they've been keeping up on replacing the coolant
And no you can’t delete the pump.
You can totally delete the system, lol
Such a common issues if you spend 5 minutes online you would of found it.
"Identifix" is that the name of the common error database?
Wizzzarz!!
I missed the repair cost. Guess $3k.
😮
MAYBE THOSE
"MECH" HAVE LOOKED AT THE RATE BOOK AND FOUND THE HIGH VALUE(most expensive) repairs and that is why the jump on them
Most dealers don't want to service a 300K vehicle. Why? Because of the "Last Mechanic Who Fixed It, Broke It" Rule for the next subsequent repair. I don't blame them for refusing service considering the mileage, even if it's a Toyota.
The Tin Foil Hats Demons and Aliens put that water in there, Wiz! 298,000 and still truckin'...impressive.
Good job, Wizard !
I have an 02 Tundra with around 230k.Its looks beautiful on the outside, but the frame is about to rust out.Too bad that Toyota had so many frame issues! I still have faith in Toyota, bought a 2021 Highlander earlier this year.Just not a fan of whoever supplied the frames to the Tacoma and Tundra!
I really enjoy when Mrs. Wizard jokes with Mr. Wizard and/or say something funny as a result what Mr. Wizard did…😂
I have a 1.8 civic, on the first 10 seconds of morning cold start engine shakes more than normal for 10 seconds then it idles/warms up normal, drives normal in every condition. This has been going on for a week owned the car for 10 years almost. Any ideas? no lights on the dash (I know this is not an official diagnosis I watched the full video, just need ideas)
2008 with segmented bumpers that likely work as a bumper should! Not just some cosmetic thing integrated into the panels and smoothed out chassis form. Why automakers went away with that, not sure... it likely has to do with trying to sell more cars because it would take more effort to replace and/or repair.
What I don’t understand is why you always can figure out what is wrong with customers cars/trucks where other shops couldn’t? How did you increased your automotive knowledge and the others didn’t?
Best to bypass it . I forgot the company but they make really good kits .
Hewitt
Bypass is DIY only. Most shops cannot do this job because it tampers with the emissions system.
@@atx-cvpi_99 but it can be suggested to the customer to save themselves $3500 on a 16yr old 300k mile vehicle...
I wouldn’t put it in the channel, but not an issue in Kansas@atx-cvpi_99
I remember worrying about those pumps failing on my old tundra, I bought a bypass kit but never used it. Still have it new in its box but no longer have the tundra
I have fixed secondary air system issues by replacing the upstream oxygen sensors. Especially on Mercedes.
I have a titan and you're definitely wrong with that take! It's been an amazing truck v8.
I'm a everyday mechanic and there's very few vehicles past 2008 that's any good
Dealerships get repair reports for vehicles under warranty but they don’t do well with higher mileage vehicles out of warranty
The local mechanic here in California recommended replacing the four oxygen sensors on my car to get rid of the trouble code.
Wizard keeps those healthy supplements in the kitchen cabinet right near the Captain Crunch and Chips Ahoy
Because the owners do off roading with would extending the air intakes from the pumps up around the airbox be any help in keeping out the water?
The trick to buying a Toyota if you can't afford the one you want is just get an older one. Also avoid the timing belts for future savings.
As a tinfoil hat wearer, I will definitely be checking out that channel :)
Thank you. I like the Pink Cadillac, because of the year.
You couldn't find it's issue if it bit you in the face!! Just quit bragging you found issue and fixed it !! Just send it out to a shop that can fix it and don't screw it up !!
Of the fifty cars I've owned and worked on only once was it actually the maf.
Will you have haunted cars in your new channel or vehicles that won't work after alien encounters?
How do you know that anything was actually ruined by water and not just being impeded by it? Was there any attempt to run the engine with just the water removed?
Its not only there bc its mandatory, some costumers actually want their car to not pollute their neighborhood.
Paranormal fits into finding gremlins in your vehicle 🚗
Im still thinking its the air flow sensor and this turkey sandwich is mmm, mmm!!!
Smurf blue!!! Really nice looking truck..
Why do you always sometimes mix up your descriptive phrases?
That has my AUDI beat by only 7000 miles. Huzaah!
Must be a sensor. “What we have here is a failure to communicate “😂
I think there is a bypass kit for all of that if you live in a state that does not check for emissions.
Nissan titan are good trucks just alot of people dont take care there vehicle like they should no matter what brand toyota is included
I bought a 2010 Titan FFV SE from my dad. Amazing truck.
You're absolutely right, Titans are great trucks and good looking trucks
Rented a brand new 2019 titan with only 1450 km on it and the dash rattle told me it's a piece of junk
@@jasongrisdale3084 They are cheaply made but if cared for they can last. You cant really compare a Toyota Tundra or Tacoma to the Nissan offerings though.. They may compete but there really is not competition.. MULTIPLE million mile Toyota tundra Tacoma and 4 runners have been shown, Zero Million mile Nissans.
I told my wife this morning if american cared for their cars like Germans it would be totally normal to see cars with 500,000
I have a 08 tundra with 200k on it I hope mine don’t go bad
My wife bought me a good scan tool and it has saved me headaches and $$
What a cool part of my car! I can’t wait to remove them from my engine!!
Denso is what is recommended by Toyota not Hitachi
If those greens are going to make me look like you, I'll pass.
Fills with water through the condenser air flow.
😂😮😊
Tundras are the #1 truck for lizard people 😊
So this wouldn't have happened if the truck was not submerged, correct?
No, they fail all the time
Just think about it.
This truck has consumed 30,000 gallons of gasoline at say $3.00 per gallon = $90,000.00 in fuel alone.
plus add up the $$ spent on oil changes, tires, brakes, windshield, maintenance etc etc. Drivings not cheap. Guess one can always ride a bicycle
Kinda wild they apparently didn't even scan it.
👍
looks like when the hood is up you can see on the radiator area where the water got up to?
What do the air pumps do to the exhaust mitigate emmisions?
Can't wait for the new channel wizard
