- 2022+ Toyota Tundra Long Term Reliability -- Not What You Think
With the new Tundra having been introduced for the 2022 model year, it’s received with mixed emotions. The new truck has many advantages over the previous generation such as more power, better fuel efficiency, more features and better capability but what about the most important thing-long term dependability? All the bells and whistles are excellent but will the truck perform flawlessly day and and day out, especially when working a towing? Will the new generation Tundra be as reliable as before? Let’s take a look at the differences and see if Toyota developed another million mile engine or if they made a big mistake. - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ

Misleading Teaser Title. Zero info in the video about the long term or even short term reliability of the 2022.
Agreed.
My friend has a second gen. Tundra for many yrs and close to 300k miles. He’s had virtually no issues. Other than typical maintenance issues.
Good for ur friend. What the hell does that have to do with this video?
I'm going to save everyone some time.
Summary - this is a new truck it may have some issues the engine has previously been used in a Lexus model for several years with minimal issues. So your milage may vary as with any car but Toyota is a reliable brand and it will probably be ok with a few hiccups.
What Lexus model was using this for several years?
Dealer told me to NOT go the recommended 10k miles between oil changes in order to protect the turbo. That said, I would never go over 5k miles between oil change.
I’d change the oil every 3k.
i drive 5k in 2 weeks :( im guessing that the smaller motor means cheaper price for oil change
I have a 2022 tundra sr5 TRD sport and never had an issue … now she has 26,000 and drives amazing
Blame the EPA not Toyota! Emissions are making all trucks suck. The new diesel trucks are terrible because of this!
Blame toyota! Reliability definitely went down the drain.there so many problems with new Toyotas that have nothing to do with powertrain.
That's the plan. They want us in all electric. Fuck thatvlol
Nothing has gone down the drain. All new tech has a learning curve . Say goodbye to V8s. It’s over thanks to government regulation. Toyota wouldn’t have changed a thing if they could have got away with it.
Why should we blame the EPA for Tundra's poor quality? Toyota built the truck, it's their own fault the new Tundra is garbage
@@mjones2305 epa regs force design changes that increase complexity and are not actually necessary.
If you put food on the table with your truck, get a Tundra. If it’s a daily beater, get what suits you
Facts
This video is nothing more than a 12 minute Tundra commercial.
My 2022 Tundra just blew the motor last week with 27k miles and I’m far from the only one.
How bad is the carnage?
Piston ring?
What were the first symptoms of the failure?
Define blew the motor. I don't think this is common.
Be careful saying anything bad about Toyota. The gang will get you for saying anything negative and then blame you for the failure.
They missed the mark with many loyal truck owners. Toyota has a long reputation for evolution of their products, not revolution. Loyal truck owners want long term, reliable power, not necessarily the most power or or best gas mileage. Toyota should of mated the new 10 speed transmission behind the 5.7 engine. In so doing they could of lowered the rear axle ratio without sacrificing performance. That combination would of yielded better gas mileage and emissions for Toyota. Toyota jumped from one of the simplest straight forward trucks to one of the most complex trucks on the market.
I said the same thing. New transmission and an elec assist behind the 5.7 with a retune would have been a beast...
You people don't understand the ultimate goal if Auto manufacturers today. Build more junk and get public to buy more often
@@chrish1850 Would not have met emission requirements. Would you prefer a Tundra hybrid with auto start stop or cylinder deactivation?
Owned a 2007, sold at 140k miles with no issues, just regular oil/filter change; owned a 2019 1794 trd offroad, sold at 98k miles, no issues, just regular oil/filter change. Now own 2023 trd pro, at 3k miles had to be in shop for "coolant found in cylinder #2" cylinder head was replaced by Toyota. So far it seems okay, but long term in question 🤞🤞
It won't be... you will regret getting this POS
Remember just because the “part” is new. Doesn’t mean it’s good. I bet the truck will last. All machines and machined parts will break. It just taking care in between those times that will make a difference.
Awesome video. Thank you very much!
How about politicians and their private jets start being held to emissions standards. Do the same for mega corporations who abuse natural resources to. Stop ruining our trucks!
Love my 5.7 tundra!
I have 21k miles on my 2022 1794 Edition (non-hybrid) with no issues whatsoever. Only service visits with Toyota and a couple of minor recalls.
i hope no issues with only 21k miles
Glad to hear the truth regarding turbos. My company remanufactures them. I did own recently a turbo sports car. Changing the oil by or just before 5k miles consistently is crucial. I traded my turbo car for a naturally aspirated v6 truck which I plan to keep for many years. I would not purchase a turbo vehicle if I planned to keep it beyond 100k miles. Too much to go wrong!
yeah if you dont take care of it lol, turbo cars have lasted just as long. idk why people are acting like Turbos are some new technology.
I own a turbo 4 banger and it has 140k miles and zero issues. Just regular maintenance. Its a vw golf r
@@Jarbeefus-jr2gu people hear turbo and think of the Civics with the fart can exhausts with drivers that don’t actually know how to drive a stick and think all turbos are trash. If you take care of the care 9/10 times it will be a great
is38 are known for blowing up all the time lol @@Jarbeefus-jr2gu
Also after getting off the highway you want to idle for at least 30 seconds to a minute to make sure you don't bake oil in your turbo.
With how much R&D Toyota puts into their engines, and vehicles overall, it surprises me that they can still have issues, especially expensive issues. At least they continue to refine their designs.
This is why I just bought a used 2021 with the 5.7. Toyota will eventually fix these problems but it might take a couple more years.
It's already been a couple of years...
@@chrisdrives8204he said a couple more years… The 2024 models are out so maybe 2026 models will be better and add some tow hooks. This is not a Wyoming worthy truck - it’s just a grocery getter on pavement.
I did the exact same thing!
@@lancelemay6971so a Toyota truck cannot be driven in Wyoming? Interesting.🤔
@@T_81535 I have an 03 Tundra and an 07 Tundra. Bought both new and still have them. Problem free great trucks with tow hooks! I’m not driving out in the mud and snow in the desert with a vehicle lacking recovery points. The new model is a pavement truck.
Unless you have owned or driven a 1st or 2nd gen tundra you cannot begin to compare between the new one, it has lost the reputation that Toyota built for the tundra for the last 20 years regardless of reliability the new trucks are dogshit they are just another modern full-size truck that has given in to a distasteful and throw-away American car market. Id like to see how these fare in 20+ years
Half these new trucks won't last 10 years
@@gregorylyon1004 Give Toyota some time to iron out the issues. 1st and 2nd gen Tundras had plenty of serious issues as well.
I got a 2011 with 5.7 and I tow with it all the time. I have towed from Ohio to Texas non stop. Been up to the Rockies and taking trips to Florida. Just 5k oil changes and regular maintenance . Loves brake jobs and that about it .205k and keeps on ticking No issues at all.
Buy a new one. It will be in the shop by 50K miles
@@gregorylyon1004 you got that right
The 3rd gen Tundra has too many issues for a Toyota truck, but I think it is still more reliable than the other domestic trucks. I bet that with the introduction of the midcycle refresh, the Toyota's engineers will solve most of the problems. Yet, this truck will not be as reliable as the 2nd gen Tundra. There is a tradeoff when you opt for a turbo engine over a non-turbo engine.
I disagree. At this point, it is as reliable as the big 3 especially some HD versions are better in reliability from my research
@@Pantelifts10 Well, you are basically saying that the new Toyota Tundra (3rd gen) is as reliable as the trucks from the Big 3. That is a very low bar in my opinion. People do not buy Toyotas because they are as reliable as the American trucks, which by the way are amazing in every aspect except in reliability. People buy Toyotas because they are sick of replacing transmissions, having other expensive problems. But otherwise, the American trucks ride better, are more fuel efficient, have many features (at least 50+ more than the Tundra). If the Americans trucks were as reliable as a Toyota truck, I do not know who would buy the Tundra. Except the reliability and the resale value, I do not see what the Tundra excels with.
My friend has a fleet of HD trucks. He only buys HD trucks for his construction business, but for personal use he has aTundra and couple Land Cruisers. He does not drive his HD trucks for personal use, because an HD truck is not as comfortable as a 1/2 ton truck.
Toyota is very good at fixing the problems as they come apparent. The one or two or the few problems we hear on the internet might be not statistically significant and therefore Toyota does not seem to have addressed them.
To say that Toyota's turbo engines are reliable is a bit early. They might be, but we will know in few years. Now it is just too early. Yes, Lexus LS has a similar engine and we have not heard anything yet, but which one of the Lexus LS buyers will go to the internet/TH-cam and cry out that his engine blew up. Tundras owners will do that.
Toyota and Lexus have a lot of new models and the fall on their reliability is already reflected in various reports. It is not a rocket science and it is part of the process. Admirably, Toyota is better than the other manufacturers and in time, they will most likely address the issues, and that is what I said - they will solve most of the problems when they introduce their midcycle refresh. My biggest gripe with the new Tundra is not that it has few issues, but because it is EAGLY.
Ford trucks are just as reliable if not more.
@@trenton737 You must be a lucky Ford owner, but not me. I had two and no more. It did not work for me. I will never buy a Ford again.
@@bryanangelovI opted for the ford 2.7 in my pickup because it has had 2 generations to refine itself. It has been flawless my biggest complaint right now is the fuel efficiency isn’t that much different than a V8
So what I've gotten out of this video is that they had issues with wastegates early on until they changed suppliers and the rest is a bunch of "what-if" speculation.
Great video!
I am having more issues than I would like with my 2023 Tundra, lots of interior problems, 4x4 broke, air whistles from the vents, 2 dash rattles and a radio trim piece is off...not to mention unimpressed fuel economy....this is my 2nd Toyota and last one.
What are you going to replace it with?
The 5.7L had some common issues too such as the secondary air induction system being garbage and taking Toyota years to fix. I had 2011 with the 5.7 that dropped a valve at 88,000 miles destroying the engine. So although generally reliable, the 5.7 wasn’t perfect.
My 2011 5.7 has 270K and only has needed a starter and 2 clock spring replacements. I drive it everyday, love it! (My HEMI)
That was then. Good point tho. This over engineered V6 will show it’s true colors soon.
I still believe it can be perfected in a few years though.
No engine is going to be perfect in 100% of cases. Literally none. Not saying that to try and argue you are wrong, but buying a vehicle is always a hedge against what is going to go wrong, when, and how much it costs. You took a really safe bet and still lost. It happens.
No engine is perfect but it was the most reliable half ton engine in its time. Can you say the same about the engine on the current Tundra?
@@austinatomTV that ttv6 been around since 2018
I have a 2015 crewmax 5.7 V8 with 128,000 miles and NO problems. I tow a 6000 Lb travel trailer so for me it’s my work horse. The mpg isn’t the best but my truck spends its time driving and not in the garage for repairs.
What is the milage you see empty, not towing?
@@CumminsTurbo4 18 mpg and about 10 mpg towing.
@@Bunkysworkshop better than most from what I've read... thanks!
I hate my O7 Tundra 4x4. It has 300k and won't stop running down the road.
You know when it isn’t reliable
You’ll start to see them Tundras in the used car department
I’m still driving my 2008 Tundra I bought new. It has 252,000 miles and runs just as good as when I first bought it. I had to replace the starter about 3k miles ago and that’s the only problem. Other than that just the regular maintenance . I wouldn’t touch the new Tundra. I were to buy a new 1/2 ton it would be a gm with 3.0lt diesel.
Breakdown city. My buddy got one thinking itd be a better work truck then the standard gas. Let's just say he's not a Chevy man anymore lol.
The new tundra will never do that
my 4.7 passed CA smog again. ..will put another 50K on the sequioa next year? tryin" for 500!
I’ve owned my 2022 Toyota Tundra SR5 TRD Off Road for over a year with more than 17,000 miles … it came with 14 inch screen, 360 cameras , folding side mirrors … ZERO issues at all .. it has a unique color Army Green… no more army green colors for 2023 and beyond…
Only 17k. So you basically have no idea yet lol. We’re talking long term here buddy. Time will tell.

@tymt84 *you're
My Tacoma had so many issues my son nicknamed it the Lemona. That junk spent more time on the dealerships lift than it did in our garage. Plus... dealing with Toyota over warranty issues? Not fun.
All those rusted out frames years ago? Toyota only stepped up to the plate and replaced them after multiple class action lawsuits. But... thats Toyota. Most recently they were fined for swindling their customers out if hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Toyota reliability 20 years ago? Absolutely. Now?? 😂
Come back at 100,000 miles and 2 blown turbos later 😂
I love my 20 TRD OR TUNDRA. The v8 is not terrible on fuel. I can achieve 12.5 litres per 100 kms on long road trips.
Yea I can do the same with our LX570 … 12.3 is usually what I can get. Cruising in town is another story lol.. what a gas hog!! 🐷
My 16 DC once topped 21.1 u.s.mpg.Typical summer milage is about 19.5.I live in sw ontario in flat country,and use 91 octane,and a K&N air filter.At almost 200,000 kiloms no issues.
I drive a 22 tundra with 27k miles no problem, full synthetic oil changes every 10k miles along with other basic maintenance
Hope it's a lease with your 10k oci... when it's not, every 3k-5k.
@@jaycarl1562 full synthetic is designed to last 10k ive been doing it for years never had a problem throwing your money down the drain. watch lab tests full full synthetic doest start to break down till 8k even then by very little.
@@jaycarl1562not according to the service department at the Toyota dealers. Ever 10k. Shows what you know genius.
Just did my first oil change at 2500k miles and plan on doing it every 5k or 1x per year, but I plan on keeping my sequoia for a longer period of time.
@T_81535 they also say the tranny fluid is lifetime. I'm no genius, but obviously a lot smarter than you.
If I don’t have to tow cross the country this will be the one. I have 19 pro towing 7000 TT around the country with single issue
A few years ago, I needed a new truck. I wanted a Tundra and heard about the new model coming out. Heard about the V6 and was not thrilled about that. When I saw the pictures of the new truck, I went on a search to find one of the last V8s. Got a 2021 Tundra and could not be happier with it. The new truck might be good but I KNOW that the older one is...
Good luck getting 200K miles out of a 2021. Lol
I did the same thing, that V8 is the best motor ever
I did the same thing. Bought a 21 AG in october of 21. would NEVER buy a full size truck w/ a v6. climate change is a hoax
@@regularguy761facts
Chevy would be like,so, you want heated seats and reliability?
Thanks for saving my money
It’s a great car. I think it’s definitely 1,000,000 mile engine. Mine already has hundred thousand miles and hasn’t skipped a beat. Change the oil every 5000 miles and don’t force it. It’s not a race car. Despite the fact that this is a turbo engine, it’s unbelievably simple. There’s not much electronics and they kept a lot of the things that have stood the time. Also even the previous engine can fail like my friends at 15k miles. On average however! These engines are beasts. The turbos will fail at 200k but easy to work on and access. Toyota has legendary turbo engines and this one is no exception!
No thanks. I told my dad to keep his 800k mi 2006 Tundra and his 2016 Tundra. Don't ever get a turbo Toyota or any other vehicles with turbos.
I am getting 2022 tundra in few days but the engine was fully restored due to oil leak, do you recommend?? Thanks in advanced
I'd get a different one if it were me
Are the 2023 built in the later part of the year much improved??
From my experience yes. Went from a 23 Pro to a 24 Pro and everything seems much more refined.
The Tacoma is going the same way with the 4 banger turbo replaceing the v6
Toyota makes some of the incredible inline diesel engines like Hilux and Fortuner but I’m not sure about turbo petrol Toyota engines because in Asia/Australia diesel is a diesel nothing can beat diesel engines there Reliability,Torque and mileage
Best option if you are wanting one of these new is to buy from a dealer that offer lifetime powertrain warranty. I haven't had any issues with my 2023 but having that warranty is nice peace of mind.
The peace of mind is great to have with any vehicle 👍
With most dealers lifetime warranty means 150 thousand miles that’s it
@@marshallforeman2051 the ones I've seen are a scam
It's a 2023. I would hope you wouldn;t have seen anything wrong with it. What does the lifetime powertrain warranty entail? Does it define miles? If it's unlimited miles I'd keep the truck forever lol.
@@marshallforeman2051 it’s lifetime and came with a certificate that doesn’t state any mileage.
My 23 tundra has 15k on it no problems what so ever plenty of power interior is great i had many older tundras and no problems there but its time to step into the future unfortunately to meet the government guidelines
I have a 23 tundra, no problem at all. Sometimes i think this youtubers make stuff up so people see the videos
150000 m
I bought my ‘14 for $27,900 as a demo. Runs better than new right now with all the overkill maintenance I do. It’s your money, so spend as you wish.
They blow up by 40K miles. Lol
@@jgringo5516A 2014 is about the last of the good ones
I want one.
I think the battery on the hybrid will be the down fall on these after a few years. I would buy a regular gas engine on a new tundra if I was looking for a new one. I have the 2020 trd pro and it’s been bulletproof so fall. We had a 22 Sienna hybrid and it was a complete lemon. The hybrid system kept failing. We had it towed 3 times within the first 6000kms due to battery draining issues. At least we got more than we paid for it on a trade in.
So many Tundra engines are blowing up under warranty that their is a long backlog to even get an engine.
Thank you for speaking on this. Direct injection is a disaster.
Yes. The 3.4 runs direct and port injection to clean the intake areas.
They'll iron out issues. The truck itself overall is good. That's new releases should be purchased with caution
The 5.7 v8 was reaching the end of its lifecycle. It was the most reliable and long lasting gas v8 ever. The problem with the engine is that it wasn’t going to be able to meet future emission standards. This is true of other manufacturers v8 engines as well. Turbocharged V6 engines are much easier to engineer to meet emission standards and still have the power output that people demand in a truck.
Turbo engines don't last as long...how is that more efficient overall?
Thanks for that, your the only one who was honest with your comment 💯. Everyone else is crying like babies 🍼🍼
Your opinion about emissions is false. The TTV6 burns more fuel than the old V8s. The 5.7 is better on fuel then the TTV6 IFORCE MAX. I just watched TFL TRUCK and they raced 1st, 2nd and 3rd gen Tundras and did a 70 mile fuel economy test. So, the v6 has higher emissions due to higher fuel consumption. Watch the video yourself.
@@mikefoehr235race? In a truck?
@@mikefoehr235nothing gets good fuel economy when your in the throttle. Obviously you don't have enough driving experience to know these things. I've got a Kia optima that will straight up guzzle gas like it's cold beer if I'm on it all the time.
I have 300k on my ford ecoboost with zero issues. The main thing is change fluids regularly. I am sure this engine will be fine.
I’ve seen engine problems on the 2022 model tundras
The problems with the new twin turbo + small engine combo won't begin to emerge for a few years especially for customers who think they can go 10k+ between oil changes because that's what it says on their synthetic oil jug. Just like DI most problems will emerge after warranty period.
The manufacturers also say 10k for oil intervals
@@PGXPPR Only after the marketing departments started writing owners manuals and warranty terms. Engine failure due to oil sludge is not covered by warranty. But if you are leasing or owning short term it won't matter.
@@hsuccop I change my oil every 3-4k it is cheap insurance especially with turbos
@@PGXPPR You're a wise man if you plan to keep the car past warranty, My Mitsubishi turbo Evo X owners manual says every 3k miles. Turbos spin at up to 350,000 rpm and are lubricated with the same dirty engine oil. All turbos should be lubricated by a separate lower viscosity oil system not contaminated by engine combustion but manufacturers don't want the extra cost.
Change the oil every 5k!
Turbo's have been very reliable for decades and all I've been driving for decades. That's not going to be the weak link here unless poorly maintained..
You've put 300k+ miles on a gasoline turbocharged engine?
I'm sure the engineers of the V8 have forgotten more things than the engineers of the V6 have learned. Sadly, warranty doesn't cover "Tech couldn't hear/reproduce issue", or "They're all like that". There are youtube videos complaining about the quality of the materials. If only they could clone boomers.
Oil distribution problems on the 2022. Supposedly aware of the issue by now. But thats a block killer for sure.
Trade my 2019 for a 2022 tundra was a terrible mistake so many failures and recalls I had to trade it for a Lexus suv
Wow the 2019 is bulletproof, what made you change out
Don't worry,from what I remember,toyota have made reliable turbo cars since 1982 .
Many 3rd gen tundras have pushed their front main bearing out. I’ve seen 6 so far. One did it twice lol
That's because the new tundra is junk
@@gregorylyon1004 I would wait until the 2029 Tundra. Many 2nd gen Tundras have broken valve springs from 2007 till 2016 as well.
Gee I can't imagine powering a full size truck with a twin turbo v6 having problems same truck that was powered by a 5.7 v8 . I still can't believe Toyota did this with their trucks.
Tundra going to be the same as ford ecoboost issues. Would probably be better off getting f150 5.0 or other truck without a turbo or cylinder deactivation.
The F 150 5.0 has cylinder deactivation and a oil pump belt.
That’s why I’m not a Toyota Pickup truck guy anymore ! I like V8 ! I only have the natural , no Turbo engine , in my car ! If I have to switch brands because of the engine , I’ll do just that !
It’s a given, once you buy a turbo motor, reliability was already out of the window. But don’t get me wrong, Tundra will be still the most reliable in its class! As a cunsumers ain’t got better things to do but complain regardless what Toyota come out with, 5.7 consumes too much gas and low on power but now that we got turbo reliability is the issue? Lease it that’s your best bet!
No, thank you I’m going to let somebody else be The guinea pig tester before I purchase , a new Toyota I prefer the old ones, those are the best especially the one for the 70s 80s and 90s, Toyota is been going down the hill, I prefer to rebuild a old Toyota, because I know it’s going to be extremely reliable
Toyota should’ve used the inline 6 twin turbos that was in the supra
Just increase the V8 breathing capability and tune it to have more power naturally and it will be a hit . Chevy increased the 6.2 from 420 hp to 495 hp in the base C8 just by improving its intake. Wish they'd do the same with their trucks , but that would be asking them to impress their customers. We all know general motors isn't into doing that...
Between the new Trax, Trailblazer, and Traverse with a new Tahoe and Suburban in 2025 things are looking good for GM going forward.
V-8 and stick-shift tranny ,manual crank lift windows and I 'll buy two!
Just key locks too. I gave up replacing my lock actuators on my ‘14. I just use the key.
i own a 21 but i think the new gen will be reliable, ford has been building the 3.5 eco boost for a long time and its a great engine
they should have just used the 4.6 L V8
Gas mileage is bad and it won't meet the upcoming emissions standards.
From what you say you'd think turbochargers were new. Turbochargers have been extraordinarily reliable on diesel engines for many decades. My current turbo diesel rolled over 219,000 miles today, it will get its next 10,000 mile oil change soon, because that's the service interval. Many VW and Audi turbocharged gas engines have had zero issues through their long lives. There are lots of turbo gas engines on the market now, and the things that let them down aren't generally the turbos. But a lot of people want to hear this BS, because they are only going to be happy with a v8 with a liter per cylinder or more.
A 6 cylinder, turbo charged engine? On a 1/2 ton? Nope.
The extreme slant of the windshield and those huge A-pillars are already a turn off for me. Very poor visibility. My Sierra gives me a panoramic view of the road.
My 2023 sr tundra almost 10k close to second changuw oil zero isues😊
Glad you're liking it
Anything twin turbocharged is not going to last! Period
Define going to last. 50k? 300k? 105k?
*slightly better fuel efficiency
The trade offs are definitely not worth having to replace more parts etc.
Slightly better fuel efficiency is certainly debatable with a turbo. Being most people are lead foot demons I highly doubt they are anymore economical then an aspirated engine. Plus a lot of the studys on MPG are based off fuel economy from the 50s. No one drives like that anymore. How about driving 80MPH to 120 MPH then lets seee the real results becuase thats the average idiot on the road today.
@@hansgruber6122 exactly.
Every person I’ve ever known who had a car with a turbo had problems with premature wear on either the turbo, its components or others because of the greater pressure and heat it generates across the board.
Why didn’t Toyota just update the 5.7 iforce ?
Emissions
Toyota likely spent hundreds of millions developing the 3.5TT. Surely they could have updated the 5.7 for less.
@@0HOON0maybe. But if they had to lose power to get the engine to meet emissions would that be acceptable to truck buyers? I doubt it.
That engine was too good. Toyota does not want to sell reliability anymore. Buy a new truck every 100K miles. Toyotas new goal. Make huge profits for the stock holders and investors
@@gregorylyon1004 ehhh... The 4.7 was better in terms of reliability, but the 5.7 would need a serious rework in order to meet the latest emissions standards.
Why does Toyota recommend oil changes on the new Tundra every 10,000 miles (not 5,000)?
Reduces scheduled maintenance costs
I understand-just not sure why Toyota would make such a recommendation if it were to cause damage.
Designed to fail.
They don't give a damn once it is out of warranty ... usually by the time this will start to show it will be out of warranty on the powertrain but they can sell "cheaper" cost of maintenance as mentioned above.
10K might be OK with very light driving and mostly highway without short drives or stop and go traffic but not with towing or off-road. @@michaelc8606
Yes, you better change it every 5000 if you want to keep the truck twin turbos means more heat !!
Don’t buy a 2022 Toyota tundra capstone particularly because the driver seat panel comes off. It will continue to come off because it is a engineering failure. Toyota has made cheap seat paddles that will snap right off if you put any weight on them getting out of the truck. On top of that I was told that the warranty does not cover that and I have to pay $385 to have it replaced. I am getting rid of that capstone and going to a ram 1500 limited elite, it is built well
Yota needs to find a new winning edge in the market. Their vehicles seldom had turbos, which will always wear an engine out more than NA. Reliability isn't going to be a competitive advantage anymore, or not enough of one at least. They need to look towards performance metrics.
sounds like my dog reading toilet paper after ....
Oh no! I have to get regular oil changes and keep up with maintenance for my truck to run forever?! Terrible!
Yes but diesel engines spin half the rpm a gas motor does that’s why they last long
So sad. They should’ve at least built an inline 6. Smoother, sounds better, and has more main bearings for better longevity. Otherwise should’ve just refined the 5.7 and kept the v8. Maybe they’ll course correct.
Wish they would but highly doubt it
The twin turbo v6 has been very reliable in the LC500 for past 6 years, for the tundra they stroked the motor, piston travel longer and lower rev's to increase bottom end torque, plus they beefed up the entire engine housing, all aluminum block and head, way better coooling systems, it will just be a matter of time before we see the reliability results, 6 years to get a good handle on that average
Where can I find this info?
@@chrisdrives8204 You can't find it because it isn't available. The person stating those facts is regurgitating something they read on a forum.
@@chrisdrives8204 it's not true since the LC500 didn't come with a TTV6 and still runs the 3.5L and is a hybrid.
What in the world are ya'll on about? The Lexus LC500 is 5.0 NA V8! Don't type crap unless you're not dumb.
@@adamharris2674 1st comments not true. But they do also come with the 3.5L V6 but that models just a hybrid. U just don't hear much about those vs the V8 model.
Have a Gen 3 Tacoma. I hope Toyota doesn't drop the ball on Gen 4. I feel like the new Tundra sucks compared to the previous gen. Not going to get a million miles like the older gens.
You'll be lucky to make 100K miles on the new one's. Lol
Consumer Reports has the 2023 3 gen Tundra a close second to the Ram. The Ram hasn’t been updated for years. When the redesign hits I’m thinking tundra will retake the top spot for reliability. But I definitely agree the new turbo engine won’t be reliable as the 5.7 it replaced. But 5.7 or any of the older V8 tundra engines are in a league of their own.
The 2025 Ram has a mid-life refreshing with no hemi v8...but with a new inline six turbo...what baffling to me is why Toyota didn't adopt a inline six design like Ram which is far more reliable and efficient engine.
@@jamesallen7205 To early to mention about the I6 either in terms of reliability.
v8 all day baby
I wonder if 2025 will be a better year for this model
Perhaps 2026 but what they really need is their 5.7 back in there. No more EPA-mandated BlDEN mobiles…
All this talk about how the new Gen Tundra can’t possibly be reliable. Then all this doom and gloom about how unreliable turbos are and you will be lucky to go 100K is nonsense.
People said the same thing about overhead cam motors, computer controlled engines, and AWD vehicles to name a few things. The Federal government’s requirements for emissions and gas mileage are driving the switch to smaller engines. Toyota I’m sure would have kept making the 5.7 V8 if it weren’t required to by these regulations.
If you want a turbo to last only use synthetic oil period!
Synthetic oil will handle the heat at the turbo bearings and will be less likely to coke onto the bearing surfaces than conventional oil.
Lastly while modern turbos have cooled bearings, it doesn’t hurt to allow the turbo to spool down and have chance to cool down some by idling the engine a few minutes after driving for a extended time in hot weather.
These engines are blowing up constantly. I'm talking 2022 models with 30K miles
Your right they are!!!😢😮
Crap, you moved to Florida too? Is everyone moving to Florida?
Never turbo longevity 5.7 yes
Better to wait for a few years to get the kinks out. It’s just too new right now.
5:48 I think you made a mistake … You said Turbo V6 is more complicated than naturally aspirated V8… Then you said that the naturally aspirated V6 is MORE complicated than a turbo 4 cylinder… Should have said that the turbo 4 is more complicated than natural V6.
Yes you're right. Glad you got the idea.
The problem is with the look of the truck. The V8 would be fine hooked up with a Ten speed transmission. I’ll take less gas mileage and more dependability any old day on my 2016. I’ve owned Tundra’s since 2005 and I have been spoiled no doubt. If I was willing to Settle for Less ,I could have bought from The Big Three.🤨
That would be a nice setup 👍
Amen
Compare to other manufacturers. Let's see a 300k mile Doge or Chevy not burn oil
I don't care what burns oil if it will run 300K miles
My 2004 Silverado is on 285,000 miles with the original engine and tranny. No blowby or oil burning. Best vehicle I've ever had by far and I've had only Toyotas (2015 Camry, 2022 Tacoma) and Hondas (1999 Civic) before that.
Get a Nissan Frontier pro 4x
Man that wind shield view is not that good. It looks small
It's definitely smaller than the previous generations
Better fuel efficiency is only if you drive like a "Grandma" and is not real world conditions, but many people fell for the lie. Any engine that has a turbo will by design fail eventually due to the high heat produced by the turbo.
