    Have you had any luck getting tire pressure from the ecu? And which version is that. Thanks.

    Yes, I’ve had this one for 4yrs. Originally I had in my ‘14 Tacoma.
    Also when ordering it have it pre-programed For Toyota so its easy to set up.
    It has a lot of options. I printed the 50 + Page user manual and it helps explain all the different available settings. I read the new version should be able to read oil temp.

    They’re a factory part and look very nice. Debating on dropping another $70 on factory black overlays for the tailgate 4Runner text plus front/rear logo.

    Did my front and rear diffs...these Easy Pack bags make this so much easier. What an ingenious idea!92633A11-B4AD-4011-AF2A-C8DD9DB1290E.jpg

    41k...the front really didn’t needed to be changed. The rear was dark and dirty but probably could have went longer. At 40k I remember my 2nd gen Tacoma being a lot more dirty. In the end it was cheap maintenance and I know it’s top notch fluid in there...

    I wondered if there was such a critter so we didn't have to put holes in the floor or the center console. I dig it!

    Not sure...I think their gear oils are some of the best on the market. I have used in multiple applications with good results. I am indifferent to their motor oils.

    It is a little expensive but it is a work expense and a necessity. I have to get my inverter in there next.

    Nope! Amsoil rules over all the other inferior shit oils. Never run anything but Amsoil, if you do, you are a fool.

    I use a pump that screws on the top of the bottle. Those bags are pretty slick though. However I have not used them.

    Did this on my Tacoma...but the bags are easier cause there is less drips.
    No need to drop anything with the bags. I was able to stuff the bag on a good enough angle and the bag material is super tough.

    Amsoil is said to be good oil but it's not worth the effort. If I can't buy it off the shelf locally, I'm not buying it. Amsoil makes it way too difficult to find and buy their products. M1 synthetic gear oil, Toyota synthetic engine oil, I'm good to go.

    So not only was the light on, but if all of the oil came out where the cap should've been, wouldn't oil hit the engine and smell?

    I use to run amsoil in my motorcycles. It was only like $10 a quart so didn’t mind too much. Never thought it was anything special. There are people that still believe it’s the holy oil.
