Might try searching for NOS 24577288 or older Stant 14028. I think thats the right thermostat part number for your car. Seems to be quite a few out there and not expensive. The older NOS part will likely be better than Motorad.

Nobody on the other end actually cares and severe lack of attention to detail. It helps a lot when the above is reversed. Does it trace back to worker compensation and training? On the flip side, experiencing these things helps us run our business better because we don’t want to be like...

Jeff, I hope you have good luck with them. I installed some TYC on a friend’s 1st gen Tundra several years ago, and we could not never get them aimed right for good night driving. The patterns were not great, although the new lenses certainly looked nice. In contrast, I installed OE Toyota...

Could be a reaction to something the tomatoes were sprayed with while growing or in transit to store.

The ongoing BITOG15 is still available.

How about the individual part numbers on each driver?

@Pablo uses and recommends this fluid for the transfer case in his 2019 Tacoma. https://bobistheoilguy.com/forums/threads/post-your-latest-transmission-lubricant-change.150620/page-131#post-7549593 What year is your truck and what is the original fluid specification?

I agree 100%. Unfortunately, it seems that speed in job completion is prioritized over quality work at most dealerships.

Its possible that they removed the brake hose from the caliper & removed the caliper in order to remove rotor for inspection. I suspect they did a sloppy job with bleeding, or just forgot to do so.

Did the dealer replace the RF caliper?

Speaking of chrome, it appears to be missing the front fender badges.

5.7 V8 Tundras had 4.30 (w/ tow package) or 4.10 (w/o tow package) rear axle ratio. The 26 gallon tank is not ideal, but as D60 mentioned, the 38 gallon tank wasn't available until the next year. It will ensure you have plenty of opportunity for restroom breaks on trips!

It is a very good oil and more economical than buying 0W-30 in single quarts.

@Chris142 works at a Euro car shop. A lot of those cars have 12 point spark plugs, and some require the socket dimensions to be slimmer than typical in order to fit.

None of those are 12 point.
