    Hi Rob, I have a 2021 Tacoma Trd off-road, mine made a noise not as bad as yours I just took a piece of foam with a small trim tool and push it underneath it and I fixed the problem 100%. It worked for me. Good luck.!

    Hey Rob they make some pretty cool vinyl wrap inserts for the taco hood that would kill all the glare. They look pretty cool too.

  • @JoseGarcia-tr9mp
    @JoseGarcia-tr9mp Год назад +3

    For the glare on the hood I always tint all of the windows, including a light 30% on the windshield with a 5% strip across the top. This not only takes the glare off of the hood, but it also takes the glare off of the headlights of oncoming traffic at night time too.

  • @cpsmonroe1

    That squeak would bug me yes.
    As others have mentioned the OR has a completely different braking system than your last Tacoma so it initially may feel a little different until you are used to it. Im sure you’ll keep an eye on it anyway.

      Thanks for your post...I only have 150 miles on my new 2023 Taco Sport and felt the same way about the brakes the minute I left the dealership and continues to get my attention. Hope mine clears up too! otherwise quite possibly the perfect truck...lovin' it.

  • @danejohnson8430
    @danejohnson8430 9 месяцев назад

    As far as a manual transmission is concerned you are correct. Basically the Toyota manual is just average/bad. But I will prefer it over the automatic due to transmission control of the vehicle. Unfortunately I can’t find low mileage manuals in late 2023. And Toyota will never make a reliable V6 Tacoma via emission laws and other regulations. So we are stuck with the vehicle even though there’s plastic parts on the engine and the engine shares its class with a Camry another Toyota models instead of staying merged with the forerunner. To me it’s more of a car then a truck.

  • @Doc1855
    @Doc1855 5 месяцев назад +1

    I don’t have any squeaks in my 23 TRD Off Road but it has only 7K miles on it. And YES I’d take it back to Toyota to get it fixed immediately.
    I agree with you about the Brakes. You do have to press harder to get them to engage. It bugs me but I’m getting use to it now.

  • @IHcubcadet
    @IHcubcadet Год назад +1

    The trd off road has an electric hydraulic brake booster. Your previous sr5 had a regular vacuum brake booster. The electro booster is for the crawl control and stuff. It is definitely different feeling. Took me a while to get used to but I find my stoping to be great.

  • @nanopotato420
    @nanopotato420 Год назад +1

    I got the same year and model and if I touch underneath the steering neck plastic cover around the steering hub my fingers can poke through the two soft and flimsy corners. The brake noises you're addressing in my case comes from the larger brake booster, the off-road crawl control booster unit makes known loud sounds especially in crawl mode. The pads just need to break in and will feel more natural but no comparison to the sport in which it is soft and bites harder. I've noticed the soft Billstein's nose dives if sudden hard breaking and at first was dramatic. After a while the shocks felt stiffer and breaking in the brakes improved a bit. I'm light-footed and don't like the long travel feel of the brake pedal in the sr5 and sport as much but took some adjusting to get used too.

  • @geraldjr1000

  • @gspeedander2719
    @gspeedander2719 Год назад +2

    Hi Rob, the brake booster is a different type from your previous models, off road and pro models have crawl control systems which makes the pedal fell a bit different.

  • @derekward2266
    @derekward2266 Год назад +2

    Might be a good idea to take it back and let the dealer take care of it. Make sure they don’t try and squeeze some money out of you, especially since new and under warranty. Still a great truck you have!

  • @cbayless4294

  • @fredsausage8794
    @fredsausage8794 Год назад +1

    Black vinyl hood overlay would look good and remove glare. The brake issue deserves a service check. Steering wheel not a big deal, I'd roll a bit of electrical tape and push it in the seam, bet it solves the problem. When I bought my last Tacoma it had a squeak coming from the front bumper, got under it and push around found a couple spots where plastic was rubbing on metal. Had some of that rubber handy you use on the dash to keep items in place, cut it to fit stuffed it in place and no more squeak.

  • @ronaldcrane2655

    @rscue911 11 месяцев назад +1

    Same thing on my 23 Tacoma. I took it back to the dealership and they refused to do anything about it. Said it’s allowed to have play in the parts and suggested that I was driving incorrectly because my hands shouldn’t be that low on the steering wheel. They said I could have a Toyota engineer look at it when they do their visit to the dealership and they can decide if it warrants them removing the plastic to see if there’s an issue. Needless to say, I have yet to hear back from them.

    @carolhattersley9322 Год назад

    RE The brake issue. If I step on the center of the brake pedal, the toe area of my right foot hits the metal "leg" of the brake pedal, above the pedal. This gives a lot less leverage than stepping on the rubber pedal. If I step more on the right half of the pedal, my foot does not hit the metal part. This is on a 23 Tacoma 4 cyl AT 2wd SR. BILL

    Nice video Rob but I’m actually surprised that you selected the Electric Lime. If I remember on the video when you got rid of the Voodoo Blue, you commented that it was such an attention grabber when you were out that it was a little unbecoming. So when you picked up this extreme color, I am surprised by your elation when you speak of your latest addition.

  • @randallupton3622
    @randallupton3622 Год назад +2

    Possible solutions to your issues. 1] glare off hood go for a hood decal you choose what you want (though one that said “JEEP” would raise eyebrows
    2] squeak in steering wheel, 2 options a; take to dealer let them have it for a week or so see how it does b; pop the part and add a little caulk😅
    3] brakes, hmm I’ve never had 2 vehicles that the brakes felt exactly the same in. If I get a brake job on a vehicle when I get back in it feels different.
    I still like the color. Not as good as Gecko Green, but they are trying. Toyota doesn’t have a history of “out there” colors nice to see them branch out a little.

    Well I had a 2022 Electric Lime Metallic TRD Pro and had the same issue with the steering wheel. I think that's kinda strange - I'm thinking they are many that have that issue. I had a black decal on my hood (all TRD Pro's do); and I never noticed any glare. Maybe you should get a decal too. I traded the truck in a for a TRD PRO 4Runner so I no longer have it. Never got the steering wheel fixed so I can't help you there. Good luck and let us know how you fixed the squeak.

    I had a high ranking employee of a dealer here where I live saying Tacomas built in Mexico have always had more problems. He also stated they’ve been getting a lot of engine leaked and failed valve train components. This is why I’ll keep my 2017 as was his advice also. My 2017 was built in Texas…

    My 2019 has that brake issue. Pressure and response is inconsistent. Toyota says normal. I have them document each time I service it. Supposedly VIN not included in previous brake booster recall. This along with numerous other unscheduled repairs and replacements and quality issues, I’ve had enough. It’s out of warranty. I don’t trust it. It’s getting the boot soon. Good luck with your 2023.

    Sorry, I don't have these issues. I love the color you chose. I wish it had been an option for my trd sport. My wheel doesn't have that issue. It's tight and firm. The brakes on mine feel great. What I have heard from Toyota mechanics have convinced me to stay away from aftermarket tunes and the pedal commander, which they tell me are a leading reason for tacomas needing to be towed into the shop. Otherwise I love your videos and am an avid fan. Keep it up😊.

    I had a Tacoma Sport for 2 days. Couldn’t adapt myself to that transmission. If I had to slow down then hit the gas light it jerks. Its like the truck doesnt know how to handle it in many occasions like for example driving up a slightly steep bridge. Than I had to disproportionately accelerate the car to go up. Does that occurs with yours? After a test drive with the 2024 I traded in the car.
