- There's many theories surrounding the recent recall of Toyota's twin-turbo V6 engine in the Toyota Tundra. Today we will address the top 3 most illogical ones. Enjoy!
Toyota gave a technical explanation for the Tundra engine failures. In this video we attempt to explain what toyota means by 'debris left in the Tundra engines'
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) released an official report on the Tundra/LX600 Toyota/Lexus Twin Turbo V6 (V35A) engine failures.

I am a master technician for a dealership for 30 years and I have a 22 Limited Tundra. I totally agree with your thoughts. There are lots of trolls on RUclips who don't have any mechanic experience or understanding how engine oiling works when they are making their videos and confusing other people... glad u mades this video to show people how things work.
lol 29 years this month MDT at the dealer. sorry this engine sucks. are you lookin forward to getting screwed on warranty ? Im not. 4 years I retire cant wait . I make great money at the best dealer I ever worked at and Im sick of the brand
@@JayMak1963 honestly your opinion is not validated by anything. There’s no way to prove who you are and you stating that a product sucks. Doesn’t really have any type of weight or gravity. Chances are you’re just a keyboard warrior and that’s why you’re on here.
They tell the dealers to give a decent price for trading one in.....oops.
@@DavidRC-m9w no way to [prove your opinion either
@@DavidRC-m9w oh ok except what I said is true
I don't remember all the fuss and hysteria when GM, Dodge/Ram, and Ford was and still is having endless engine issues. I bought a 2023 Tundra SR5, 4x4, Crew Max and have no fears or issues of any kind after a year with this truck. And just like I do with ANY brand, I purchased the extended warranty to cover anything for 7 years. This is my first Toyota and I am NOT disappointed, especially after owning GM, Dodge/Ram, and Ford with all THEIR recalls and failures.
toxic, fear-based social media "influence" [cringe]
I have 1794 2023 I put 19thousand miles with no problem and I trade for 2024 1794 limited edition I’m happy with
@@Chijo15 I was looking at a 1794 a few days ago at the dealer. Beautiful trucks.
I agree with this analysis. I’m not a mechanical engineer that designs engines, but I am a chemical engineer that designs chemical plants and solves manufacturing issues. Engineers by nature and training are wired to solve problems and determine root causes. Not speculate like a lot of buffoons are doing on other channels or chats. I’m not a Toyota fanboy, but I promise Toyota will figure this out and make it right.
Yes. People need to show the engineers... and engineering in general some respect 🙏
Bottom line no one cares what happened to this engine. Despite being "overbuilt" the reliability and longevity isn't there. Currently Toyota has many other problems happening simultaneously. It all points out that the Toyota as we have known no longer exists.
What many other problems are you referring to?
@@deanrotering879 Toyota has an endless list of problems. Let me list a few for you:
- Falsifying info on testing of their vehicles.
-Had to pay 60 million lawsuit for loan lending abuse.
-Grand Highlander and Lexus TX recall.
-2022 and 2023 Tundra problems. Expect all the new models to have problems.
-Fit and finish on the new models
-Changing oil every 10k miles, fake sound of an V8 is a joke.
Simple search on the internet will bring up many more issues.
🤣 ok. Toyota as a company you’ve always known it is still there. You know the 5.7 and 4.6 have issues as well right?
@@flight2k5 pretty much every single engine they have come out with has mad at least one big if not multiple recalls. its all on the toyota website too just look it up. the issue here is the fact that this issue is a critical issue that causes the entire engine to fail due to it being such a major part that fails. that makes this recall far more serious than any other so far. in the 30 years working at toyota from the master certified mechanic that i was talking to in reference to this specific issue said that they have never in their 30 years seen a main bearing fail other than on this engine though which tells us volumes over all.
@@samuelgatton they haven’t had major recalls on every engine they’ve made 🤣😂
Toyota losing credibility? No, lots of YT channels will though with their fear mongering and misinformation! Thank you for being one of the channels that uses common sense :D
Thank you 🙏 ❤️... we try not to be lame here 🙂
Thank you. Owned a 2014 1794 for 10 years, no problems. Just got a 2024 1794 LE and had no idea of these issues. The estrogen-boys have been freaking people out.
ya it's getting toxic and fear-based lately 😪 Enjoy your new Tundra ❤️
Apparently the highest mileage for a failure was 68 thousand miles…mines at 39565 miles right now so long way to go lol 😂
we had one a 66 miles
66? Maybe it's a sign to drive along route 66! 😂 I'm just joshing you.
Great video! I have seen a few of the blown engines all with the #1 main #1 rod bearing cooked. Always #1 all other 5 were good. Plus the oil pickup screens had contaminants on them. Your theory is probably 100% correct. Everyone acts like Toyota is closing up shop and their truck is going to be left high and dry! 😂
A bunch of cry babies! 😭 I own a 23 TRD pro if it needs to be fixed big deal. Toyota has always took care of me.
Myth number 4: everyone who isn't rampaging about Toyota is naive and a fanboy. 😂
I’m only at 6k miles on my 23’ 1974.. so far so good. I love this truck.. if it breaks, I’ll take another chance and get a new Tacoma trd pro
1794
Love the ignorance of a car engine going in a truck! Chevy 350 was introduced in the Camaro 1967 and became a primary use engine for trucks and cars. The 454 was in the corvette stingray and HD trucks, 5.0 was in a the Mustang and f150. The list continues. Haters should do their homework. Thank you for this competent video.
Exactly too many cars/truck to list that share engines... the "bulletproof" 4.6L V8 in our GX460 first came out in the Lexus LS460 sedan... same exact trend...
Yeah me too. I am old enough to remember when people were crying how fuel injection engines were the worst thing ever and would never be better than a carb.
I knew a guy who a few years back bought a 198X Chevy 350 with a carb he was telling me how good they ran and better fuel economy. He had it about 8 months and sold it because he couldn't get it to run right and the fuel economy sucked. Personally I still like carburetors in some cars but not it my daily driver.
I have a 2023 1794 and I put 19 thousand miles and I trade for 1794 2024 limited edition I love it I’m not regretting
You would think and oil change Toyota would have the dealership send the oil to inspect but after your explanation about the flow if there is anything would it show and shouldn’t they be vigorously be checking these? I have a 24 Tundra Premium and had the 1st oil change a little under 5,000 miles. I’m planning on doing another next week at 8,000 because the recall.
If there's burrs at the number-1 galley they will stay in thay area only... once it drops to the pan, the strainer will block any metal shavings... "oil changes" won't fix, help or save this issue
Thank you very much for this! It makes me sleep a lot better. I have a 2023 Tundra with only 8k miles one it. Hearing about the problems literally made me feel sick. Does changing the oil early or frequently help at all or make no difference?
Oil changes will NOT fix the problem. If Toyota's claim is true, the trash is burrs left BEFORE the filter at the number-1 galley... basically the burrs just keep shedding off and messing up the bearing.... this is all before the filter/strainer
@@LexusGX460-OFF-ROAD Thank you.
Any updates on the LS500s regarding what’s happening similar to tundra situation?
People trying to salt successful people’s game. Very old story. Just the human condition I suppose.
I have a Toyota hybrid. It’s been a crazy dependable rig. Toyota has me for life. Irregardless of this recall.
truth... and the hybrid synergy drive is phenomenal... our Sienna has it... there's still 1st gen Priuses on thr road out here today still 😃 ✌️
@@LexusGX460-OFF-ROAD I’m a huge fan of their eCVT. It was a revolutionary design in my mind.
Thank you for your detailed explanation. I'm on the fence about trading my 14 F-150 for a new Tundra. You cleared things up pretty good..
Thank you for your kind comments and for supporting the channel
dont do it
@@JayMak1963 LOL. Haven't yet
@@christinoumel2291Don't. Or at the very least wait a bit.
What location are the off road scenes from?
mojave desert usa
Thank you, my good sir, for your reassurance. I have a 2024 tundra sr5 crewmax TRD off road with under 1 km and I do hope it’s not part of the recall.
You'll be OK.. if not Toyota will likley make it OK 😉✌️
Thanks for the video. I know it sucks for those that have the engine problem but the positive thing is you learn a lot. By the way, I don't have a Tundra lol.
There were some photos on the Tundra forum of damage to all the main bearings in a couple of the teardowns.
There are NO PHOTOS of damaged Tundra bearings other than the number-1 main bearing.
“Going down to the Dollar General and check it out”…😂😅!
I just commented that great minds think alike😂!
"Fred's going to the dollar store " I can't I can't lol😂
At the end Toyota is not in a good place right now and they failed miserably.
No news is bad news at this point. I hope they fix it for good, but at the end I don’t want to be in this situation period. Thank God I traded my 2023 hybrid Max 1794 a week before they drop the Bomb and got a 4Runner.
Otherwise I would have lost a lot of money. Looks like no one wants these as a trade in and if they do they will offer crap for it.
Good video but I have a couple questions; 1. Why are the engines failing from different manufacturing plants? 2. Why wouldn't after several oil changes the debris wouldn't be gone? 3. Why are some engines failing with low mileage, while others are taking 50 to 60 k miles? ( you're telling me it might take that long for the debris to get to the main bearing, or wear it down over time)? and what in your opinion is the remedy?
#1 is because the same milling process is used in the USA and Japan. If there's a code bug (for example), both countries will have it.
1. Robots do the machining and cleaning the system/program was flawed.
2. The burrs/trash are left in BEFORE the oil filter at the number-1 main entrance galley. They shed off and weld to the main bearing.
3. There's no reliable data on when they fail, just internet anecdotes/prattle

@@LexusGX460-OFF-ROAD I think the only questions left that Toyota needs to answer or figure out is if all the engines where made the same way how come only 1 percent of those recalled have failed so far? I’m sure there is an explanation but I won’t try and make one up here without any more info lol 😂
excellent explanation!!!
Do you think the issue has been resolved in 2024 models?
unknown really, it depends on when Toyota actually "caught" the problem....
@@LexusGX460-OFF-ROAD oh ok my mom just bought one a couple days ago fresh off the truck with .9 miles on it, so I assume the problem has been fixed since that recent of a truck build.
Thanks again! I'll see you in the next one.
❤️ ✌️ Thank you for your support 🙏 ❤️
Unfortunately, 97% of the population that is watching these videos on RUclips do not understand how engines work. They just repeat what they hear from others and that’s how these rumors and myths it started. I wonder what goes on in their mind that they think that Toyota engineers sit around round table, eating pizza and chicken wings, and just throwing idealson the wall and not doing any research or testing and boom they came up with a new product😂😂😂😂
Yes that's the sad truth... I'm tempted into doing a video on this topic you me mentioned. The masses seem to think "auto technician" is the expert. They are oblivious to the chain of command and that engineers and scientists exist above them. In fact the average person doesn't even know what an engineer does or is...
@@LexusGX460-OFF-ROAD you are speaking facts, even though my perspective is limited when I tell people that I am an engineer, they really don’t know what that is or what I do. It’s in the reference of mechanical or image reproduction machines, but nonetheless all engineering foundations come from the same family tree, so it doesn’t matter what your engineering discipline is we all think the same. To an individual who really wants to understand what goes on beyond the scenes that video would be especially beneficial for them. I think you should do it.
Bring back open mindedness. Thanks for the content.
🙏 ❤️
The best video I have seen on the Toyota's problem. Making the know-it-alls look like fools is even better.
@wysetech2000 🙏 ❤️ thank you for you kind comment and support 😃
There are still some unanswered questions.
1. Why are the 2024s failing when Toyota says the metal shavings were fixed in march of 2023?
2. Can i take my 2023 pro off into the dessert 100 miles from a highway and trust the engine? Hell no. Toyota needs to do a buy back or trade in for 2025 at no cost. Assuming the fix the manufacturing problem
Toyota should have an official recall answer coming in late June to late July according to their NHTSA recall
I have a 23 hybrid. Not in the recall but I imagine it will be. Makes me nervous driving it. I did an oil change around 800 miles cause some mechanic 30 years ago told me to do that as a teen. Not sure if doing an early oil change will do anything if debris is in the journal. Only time will tell. Was thinking of have the oil tested by one of those mail in locations. Curious if a bearing is failing will it show any amount of metal suspended in the oil. Figured I would do it to make me feel better one way or the other.
Very few are actually failing. If it does fail it’s under warranty. A lot of things can fail on even the most reliable cars, though at very low frequency.
@@user-tb7rn1il3q True. Of the 98K units affected, it think only actually 900 have actually taken a dump. That puts things in perspective but honestly, the hype and controversy of this whole thing has gotten people very upset. Admittedly, I got caught up in this too but when you pay 63K for a truck, you should not have to worry about whether or not you can rely on it. I've driven them for 35 years without a single mechanical issue. I sold a 5.7 Tundra to get the new one. Should have slept on that one.
@@user-tb7rn1il3q If the are "very few" failures, why is Toyota recalling 100,000+ engines? What will they be exactly doing with perfectly good engines when they come back? Why not just honor the warranty when and if they are filed? You know what. Nobody knows when the next engine will fail and where.
@@brianm7120 this comment is underrated….exactly my sentiment as a 22 tundra owner.
Prattlers are going to prattle,haters going to hate and potatoes are going to potate! But me I'm just going to shake it off!😂🎉
We’ve owned Toyotas for decades. Toyota will find a way to stick it to the customer when there is a recall.
You’re commentary is the best 😂😂
I notice how you did not interview Mr. Slate.
It is poor quality inspector that failed to inspect properly, the engine block for debris and metal shavings before the engine was assembled together still falls back on Toyota Engine building plant in Huntsville, Alabama still falls back on Toyota corporate for allowing it to happen
Great info, but dont do flinstone impressions
That was terrible 😅😂😂😂
that was the point, terrible impressions for terrible prattles
YOU DO IT BEST 🎉BLESS❤
I like your Wilma, but your Betty needs work.😂😂😂
IF WHAT TOYOTA SAYS IS TRUE...THEN WHEN MY ENGINE ATE ITSELF, THEY SHOULD HAVE EXTENDED THE POWERTRAIN WARANTEE...WUTHOUT THAT I HAVE NO CONFIDENCE IN THAT ENGINE AND NEITHER SHOULD ANYONE ELSE !!😡😡😡🤬
I think you're just being paranoid.
you have got to get your wording right here. you say multiple times that this is engine debris and it is in fact not. this is left over machining debris that is left in the block or channels of the affected area(s) that has not been properly cleaned out after the machining process has been completed and was apparently missed by qc techs across the world. that aside, to me that means that it was so small that it was missed by the human eye and or small enough that it was not noticed by human inspection, but was just enough to break off from the engine running and the pressure inside the running engine and cause issues as you said in the previous videos - traveling in to the journal from the oil passage way and becoming fused to the main bearing due to the massive pressure and heat produced inside the engine in that particular area. if this is the case, that is a very simple fix to correct at the factory, however not so much once the damage has been done and the engine has been run. I did also want to mention that though the official issues root cause has been publicly stated as, "left over machining debris" it may also be something that they have not yet announced and will not announce until they come out with the official recall from toyota/lexus themselves in the stated mid to late July 2024 time frame. Remember this has all happened before too on many of the very same engines that we now call "bulletproof", maybe not a main bearing blowing and to this extent which is why it is being made such a huge deal of, but there have been many a recall on the engines that everyone swears by now and it seems that how soon people forget there have been and always will be issues and hiccups along the way with anything that has not been tested and proven for years and you are correct in saying that we learn from our mistakes and make better the development of the future products from said mistakes.
Maybe cheap steel ??
how do you know it's not the problem ?
He doesn’t, he’s doing a good job talking down to us and laughing at us. I don’t buy it either.
he doesnt saying the 2.7 Ford is weaker proves it
Nice condescending video! We have Tundras on our forums that’s been through multiple short blocks. So Toyota keeps rebuilding motors with the same fragments in new short blocks? 😂😂😂😂
AHH YES! The 4th Prattle of "Tundras in their 5th and 6th short block" when that is NOT TRUE! No source!
You are the most interesting Toyota spokesman & defense lawyer. It appears your version of the cover-up is more logical. I can’t wait for Toyota to put Prius truck engine in Tundra. Hey it’s still one car and five trucks/suv. ;) 😂
NOT GUILTY! 👨⚖️
“Overbuilt”??? Please explain to me how the Toyota parts are stronger and more expensive? All I heard is your statements and nothing to back it up. Please let us know.
Great job of mansplaining everything.
Well... as explained in ultra slow-motion in the video, a normal main bearing cap is much cheaper and weaker than using a crankshaft bedplate. This would be called over-engineering. Toyotas refusal to use plastic parts in engines etc is also sound evidence as well. There's an entire separate radiator, cooling circuit and water pump just for the turbos on this engine. Yes we call that overengineering 😉...
Because you say it’s weaker and cheaper must make it true without any explanation. Gotcha
The economy is doing just fine. Toyota makes fine engines. JOE Biden.
Ya. Biden hates Yoda. Yoda hates Biden. UAW & Dems are queer for each other.
Must be a Trumper cause the economy is better than ever. Greed is the problem
@@zuluwarrior963he gets this but he doesn’t want to hear it from you. All he wants is his orange master back in office. Worldwide people will see that just because you change political parties doesn’t mean the economy will get back better overnight. They distinctly told people that Covid would reck us for a while to come due to all the money printing. Now they can’t handle it. The UK will experience the same thing soon when they vote out conservatives. The only think than can fix this is time. Just wait it out.
@@zuluwarrior963LMAO 😂
The ducky is an idiot
Before when the build and Ensamble in Japan nnnever had those problems now. America. Desaings and build is. Quality is. I under The cheapest cars. Doesn’t matter. How many. Non. Sense explanations. Fools. Explain. Quality and. Trust is not there any more!!!
Yabba dabba doooo!
So in otherwords its a trash engine. 😊
they definitely left trash inside of it 😢
Turbo charged diesel is good gas engines not so good as we can see
Toyota has been making gasoline turbocharged engines for over 40 years. They work, they lasted forever.
This is a heavy truck towing trailers and such v8 is the best bet
1:48 that design is still flawed because it is gimpy 4 journal main with little structure and made of shit quality alloy. Its fine for underpowered setups but simply put any person who has experience tuning and building high performance engines know this doesnt to hold up to the darnest abuse. Im not wasting my time watching any more of this video or replying to you since you want to spill faulty information defending a corporation that uses the their reputation to scam the consumer.
How many main bearing journals should a V6 have? 😆 "Flawed design" that's been around and used on multiple engines by every manufacturer for decades now? No evidence of "faulty design" 😉
Its a lemon and the truck is butt fugly. Bad design.. sell it
They still failed
see the last part of the video about failure 😉
