Getting rid of your tundra and getting a 1988 car from a junkyard for parts and then using the parts to make a pair of metal shoes and then walking to your destination is a better option than owning this vehicle.
22 Platinum. As well as the whistling noise from the drivers side window, I have a rattle coming from the moon roof, a rattle coming from the passenger window, and multiple rattles coming from the center console. Does anyone have fixes for these? I’m also having issues with my CV joint boot leaking grease. Not to mention the safety recalls for the plastic fuel hose and engine stalling issues.
@@TRDadLife Interior rattle noise above the passenger side and a clicking noise from underneath the truck when accelerating. These were a number of many other issues. One last thought, double check if you don’t have any missing bolts, as my front bumper was missing four bolts causing my bottom lights to vibrate at night. Hopefully you don’t encounter any of these issues. Good luck🫡
My biggest complaint is I am about to have my 2nd engine replaced in less than 20,000 miles. Toyota's days of reliability are over. I give them 5 years and they'll be down there with Kia.
@@kerplunk38880 does toyota give the option to buy back the truck? Wonder if you can get out of the deal instead of waiting to get fixed? That's BS to happen to a new truck
@@TRDadLife 8months ago I was goiing to pay cash on a New Chevy Silverado 1500 [$72,000 bucks] or take Dads, old wreck Free, paint flaking off * rust free * truck and fix it up. Tires, wheel hub bearing windshield shock ,suspension,ball-joints,rubbler bushing,belts,etc little stuff all repaired at shop. I couldnt be Happier. It drives, like new and doesnt burn oil. Last step is a RaptorLiner whole truck paint job. Cost DYI $500.
My Toyota Tundra I got in 2025 runs flawlessly. I've only had to replace the transmission 3 times and have 4 engine replacements every 400 miles. The radiator fluid keeps leaking through the AC unit as well and gets in my eyes, so I have poison control on speed dial. I couldn't have asked for a better vehicle!
Hahaha I’ll keep you on speed dial. So far I’ve had no mechanical or electrical issues with the truck, time will tell. I’m not expecting the same reliability as my 2015 Platinum Tundra I owned prior to this one, but I’m hoping for the best!
I owned a 2014 1794. I lifted the truck and had 35 in tires. I got 14 mpg. Now I have a 2024 1794 limited edition hybrid stock and get 15mpg. I’m at about 1500 miles. I couldn’t accelerate any slower, so don’t know about that. Also, I hear some sort of rattle from the back seat area. I’d have to have someone sit back there while I drive to figure it out. Let us know what you find out about the rattle. Thanks!
I think based on talking to some others about the rattle that it’s the rear window. Mine is only noticeable when it’s rolled down; is yours noticeable at other times too?
@@TRDadLife i only notice mine when the back window is up, driving at slower speeds over bumpy roads. I’ll see if I can pick it up on a recording. Also, I have been in sport mode for a bit and didn’t realize it, so I hope I’lo get better mpg in eco.
@@chadedwards6643 personally, I like the ride better! It’s slightly “stiffer” or more “trucky” but imo feels great. The stock suspension (non-TRD) is definitely more car-like.
I am getting roughly 20 MPG. Little wind noise. I think some of the issues are vehicle specific. I’m not a fan of the turning radius, stock sound system not real loud (JBL would be better I’m sure). Overall smooth ride love my 24.
Well trunk monkey, I mentioned several things regarding MPG’s in the video: 1. I mentioned the poor MPG’s aren’t a surprise to me 2. I mentioned even before modifying the wheels and tires my MPG’s sucked 3. I mentioned that obviously MPG’s weren’t a factor in purchasing the truck However, if you gotta make a pros and cons list of a new truck like this, MPG’s are bound to make the cons. I owned a 2015 Tundra with a 3” lift and 35’s, and I averaged about 12.5 MPG’s, so part of me was hoping that with the V6 and years of engineering, I’d be doing better than just +0.5 vs the previous gen 🤷🏽
Between the truck bed and the tailgate I got gaps all over the damn place. Also just recently experience a leak. I think it’s coming from where the windshield the roof and the door all come together. Also a lot of stuff in the truck just seems to move around a lot, Ings protective panels, etc. I don’t think anybody makes anything good anymore except for BMW they’re pretty squared away. Everybody else sucks.
No complaints here 😁 just pointing out facts for those that are interested in buying a Tundra. I was going high 70’s on highway 35 to record that wind whistle clip, but my MPG average is based on an average speed of about 60 MPH. I’ve averaged worse MPG’s with my old Platinum Tundra on 35’s, and my modded Grand Cherokee SRT - this was just a friendly warning for people to not buy the new Tundra expecting killer MPG’s 😁
Heyy men I just crossed over your video and played it and the I took my tundra platinum 2024 trd offroad to the dealership 3 times in a row and they told me the 3 times that they don’t hear nothing so I decided to take a break on that because I was using my only day off just to spend almost the whole day in the dealership just to say that they don’t know what I’m talking about but it’s the same exact noise I always tough that it was coming out of the air vent from my driver side
If you have a rattle in your air vent it’s probably a screw that got dropped in there. The dealership heard it they just don’t care. After Toyota gets your money they don’t want to see you again.
This new tundra won’t use 10th gear WITHOUT bigger tires. Bet your not getting past 8th gear with 35s. I bought a ‘24 sr model for my business and have been driving it daily last few weeks. It does not shift to 10th (honestly isn’t needed with the stupid 3.31 rear gear). Searched around last night and pretty much none of them will use 10th gear! Mine is a lowly SR model bone stock. Flat pavement, zero wind, babying it. Will not shift to 10th! Was to tell is- put it in “s” mode and shift thru the gears. You’ll notice when you shift to 10th there is ZERO rpm drop and also if you downshift from 10th it automatically goes to the next gear lower than what it’s currently in. My line drops to 8th every time! Tried from 60-80mph, with and without cruise, in and out of “s” mode (runs same rpm as 9th at the different speeds I checked it at) so we all have a 9 speed trans but paid for a 10 speed! Toyota engineers just ain’t what they used to be and this is NOWHERE NEAR as capable a truck as the 2nd gen. Yea they are nice and look good but I like to get what I pay for! $40k for an SR work truck is ridiculous but would paid close to that in any brand. Almost went ford. Wish I had
That’s an interesting piece of insight for sure - I’ll keep an eye on that and see if I notice the same thing. Yeah, the unfortunate reality is all the truck brands are a ton of $$$ now, and the Tundra actually comes in cheaper than some of the competitors of equal trim levels. Overall I’m happy with my purchase and hope it turns out to be as reliable as my 2015 Tundra was, we will see!
Toyota quaility has taken a noise dive. They should hav never began building these trucks in the US. Our labor force here is sad to say the least.No pride in what they produce. They slap these trucks together and put them on a car hauler. When will people learn - junk in junk out.
Most vehicles have their own unique issues, Toyota has just historically had the fewest. They will get this truck dialed in and it will be great! I’m hoping the 2024 model year is the start of it, so far, mine is rock solid.
Your rear seat looked like there was two different model/style pieces. As far as gas milage goes. My 95 chevy with a 350 v8 got better milage and that was with regular gas. All this upgrade stuff seems like it is a joke.

I hate my poor gas mileage…I’m on 35s… but still… 😂
I have a slight rattle every once in awhile above my head on the liner with the pano on my 24. Everything else seems great!
