#220 of 598 Re: Weird skid on 04 tundra [pathy04] by herbie1 Oct 05, 2004 (4:37 pm)
Replying to: pathy04 (Oct 04, 2004 6:20 pm) Don't discount road conditions in the spot that you skidded. One time I hit an large oil patch on my motorcycle. The oil layer was very thin and not noticeable. Luckily I was going only about 10mph through this turn. I barely kept the back wheel from sliding out from under me. There was a car right behind me.   I have an 03 Tundra Access Cab, 4wd, LSD and no TRD. I have not noticed any spinout problems that are any different from any other pickup or van that I have driven. But I also don't push it very hard. If you are inclined to do so, you may try to repeat this problem in a safe parking lot somewhere.   Good Luck.

Replying to: herbie1 (Oct 05, 2004 4:37 pm) okay, it might be the oil spill.   as long as others did not experience this problem, clarifies the fact that it is NOT Tundra issue likely   will installing a rear sway bar be effective, will it interfere with LSD?   Thanks

Replying to: aranda35 (Sep 30, 2004 8:27 am) I have a 2004 DC since March and have been back and forth to dealer. They replaced my rear shocks about 3 weeks ago. Squeak or as we like to call it "chirp" went away for about two days, then returned, less pronounced, but still there. Hope Toyota solves this one some day. I understand from research, problem has been reported back to 2001 models.

Replying to: herbie1 (Sep 24, 2004 5:36 pm) I have a 2000 4by4 6 cylinder Tundra bought March 2004 with 114,000 km. I greased all of my grease fittings on all the drive shafts and universal joints, but then I got the same squeaking noise you have. The problem was with the rear universal joints which I replaced. Ta da! No more probs. Luv my Tundra. Replies to this message: herbie1 (Oct 17, 2004 7:13 am) slawdog (May 19, 2005 1:21 pm)

Replying to: tundra (Oct 16, 2004 7:34 pm) Thanks for the update! I think this will help alot of frustrated Tundra owners who are irritated by this stupid little 'chirp.' I probably won't get to taking my truck in for a few months, but I will update everyone when I do. I'm glad you fixed your problem. Also, Luv my Tundra too.

#226 of 598 Tundra Rear Suspension Squeak (chirp) by sludaddy Oct 22, 2004 (9:12 am)
Yesterday, the dealer replaced my rear shocks (my fourth visit). The squeak is gone (for now). I hope it stays that way. The one thing that the dealer kept trying to tell me is that this was a problem that was unique to my particular truck. I told him of others that I had found with similar issues caused by defective shocks. It was only after my fourth visit and a refusal to have any lubing of the parts done that they went along with trying shock replacement Replies to this message: jv312 (Oct 22, 2004 11:37 am)

Replying to: sludaddy (Oct 22, 2004 9:12 am) over at tundra solutions, their was a post about the 04 rear squeak. Here's quote attributed to this member: Apparently there is a missing o-ring or gasket between the upper rear shock mounts and the shocks "washer". I removed my rear shocks from the frame and could see where the rubbing was taking place. The upper shock "washer" is in contact with the frame mount. The shock "washer" has a flange that "enters" and opening on the frame mount. It was clearly visible that this is where the rubbing occured. I just wrapped the flange with electrical tape to provide insulation and lubrication between the metal parts. This was his fix.
#228 of 598 V8-TUNDRA ROUGH IDLE by bamafan4 Oct 22, 2004 (3:33 pm)
I own a 2001 Tundra. The idle is rough and at times the engine will die. The engine will crank right back up but will continue to idle roughly. The toyota dealership has pressure cleaned the injectors, replaced the plugs, and inspected the throttle body. They still can't get the idle adjusted. The truck has 67k miles on it. Has anyone experienced this problem?
#229 of 598 04 tundra oil filter change by garyanders Oct 26, 2004 (5:52 pm)
I just purchased a 04 tundra double cab a few months ago. Is there an aftermarket oil filter relocation kit for this truck? It is sure a pain to drop the lower engine cover everytime you need to change the filter. Replies to this message: mschulz (Nov 15, 2004 2:30 pm)
