My wife started up the tundra this afternoon and there was some heavy smoke from the exhaust. I didn't see it when it exited the pipe so I couldn't tell if it was white (coolant) or blue (oil). It's a 2000 extended cab with the V8 and I have been religious with the maint. Has anybody out there seen this problem? I know what causes both types of smoke but with only 36K miles I am very concerned. I will update the board after I get it in the shop. This board helped me get the brake/vibration taken care of so I owe a follow up to the rest of you. Regards, Jeff... |

Could you tell me what the shop said? I've had the same problem once also. Haven't seen any of the tell-tale signs (coolant or oil). Jeff |

The OEM was 195/75R14. I've been running 205/75R14 tires for several years with no problems. Can anyone tell me if a tire in 225/70R14 would work, or what issues I may have? I am considering some "Dunlop Radial Rover A/T" tires in the last size, 225/70R14. They're also available in 205/75. However, if I can I'll go with the slightly lower profile ratio. As I'd be buying "online", I don't have the luxury to "buy & try". If this should be on another forum, please advise. Opinions or advice are appreciated. Tommy |

Hell I have a 2002 V8 4WD SR5 access cab. some times when I come to a stop and holding the break I will feel the truck kinda surge forward. The first time this happened I though someone bumped into me! this does not happen while I am stopping but after my vehicle has came to a complete stop. Has anyone else had this problem? My vehicle has just over 3000 miles. Thanks Shawn

Has anyone had problems with damage to the winshield? I have had my 1999 tacoma since november of 1999 and everytime anything hits my window (big or tiny) it cracks and spreads across the window within seconds. As a result I have had to replace my window 4 times. I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem?

Just purchased my 2002 PreRunner DoubleCab V6 3 weeks ago & absolutely enjoy the drive -- but have a question to all those that have the stereo with the CD, AM/FM, cassette with 6 speakers. The owner's manual (under the 3rd stereo displayed) states that when in the Control Mode the options are: bass, fader, treble, balance and MID-RANGE. My stereo is missing the MID-RANGE option & the dealer is attempting to tell me it's a "mis-print" in the manual and the stereo is "just fine." (Based upon the fact that ALL the Tacoma's in their lot operate the same way). I'm not buying that reason.... The service manager has not been much help -- so I wanted to know if this is in fact a mis-print OR they are dismissing my problem and not really wanting to resolve the issue. Any info would be most appreciated! Thanks.....

| Sounds like you have the driveline thump/axle wrap prob. Some have remedied the prob by greasing the shaft splines - I'm not exactly sure what the complete solution was. Go to www.tundrasolutions.com and do a search on driveline thump and/or axle wrap. | |

| Halogen - I have a 2000 extra cab with Bushwacker Street Flares. I think it gives the truck a nice look. They were easy to install and I got them pretty cheap by searching the internet. It was a while ago so unfortunately I don't remember how much I paid. | |
