2000 Toyota Tundra Engine

HAVING TO REPLACE O2 SENSORS WITH REGULARLY, 5000 MILES INTERVALS. DEALERS STATES THIS IS COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS TRUCK. NEED TO INVESTIGATE AND RECALL. VERY EXPENSIVE PART. *LA

BAD O2 SENSORS ON 2000 TOYOTA TUNDRA ACCESS CAB 4-WHEEL DRIVE. *AK

MY OXYGEN SENSORS WENT BAD AT 37000 MILES AND I BELIEVE THIS IS PREMATURE, I KNOW PERSONALLY OF 3 OTHER PEOPLE THAT HAVE HAD PROBLEMS EARLIER THAN THAT.I BELIEVE THAT IT IS A POLLUTION ISSUE,BECAUSE IF A RECALL IS NOT ISSUED, OR IF TOYOTA DOESN'T WARRANTY THE ITEM, THEN MOST LIKELY PEOPLE WILL NOT REPLACE THEM EVERY 30000 MILES OR WHENEVER THEY GO BAD. *AK

CRACKED MANIFOLD, WILL BE REPLACED WITH AN IDENTICAL PART WHICH IS VERY LIKELY TO ALSO CRACK AND I WILL HAVE TO PAY FOR REPAIR. A MANIFOLD SHOULD NOT CRACK AT 60K MILES! *NLM

2000 TOYOTA TUNDRA EXHAUST MANIFOLDS LEAKING. JULY 3. 2003 A TOYOTA DEALER TOLD ME MY EXHAUST MANIFOLDS WERE WARPED AND LEAKING. MILEAGE AT THAT TIME WAS 30763. AFTER APPROX. 3 MONTHS OF TRYING TO GET TOYOTA TO COVER THE COMPLETE COST TO REPLACE, THEY FINALLY AGREED TO FURNISH THE PARTS FREE OF CHARGE AND I PAY THE LABOR OF $662.18. I FEEL THAT TOYOTA SHOULD COVER ALL COSTS. *JB

I HAD SMELLLED FUMES IN THE CAB AND BEGAN TO HEAR WHAT SOUNDED LIKE VALVE TAPPING NOISES AT START-UP. AFTER SEVERAL WEEKS, I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO TOYOTA FOR INSPECTION. I WAS TOLD THAT BOTH EXHAUST MANIFOLDS WERE CRACKED AT THE REPAIR COST WOULD BE $1600. THE VEHICLE WAS OUT OF WARRANTY BY ABOUT 5,000 MILES. IN THE END, I WAS FORCED TO PAY $643.55 IN ORDER TO HAVE A SAFE TOYOTA.

THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON/OFF. TOOK VEHICLE TO DEALER, AND DEALER REPLACED THE OXYGEN SENSOR. *AK

ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS ENGINE WOULD SHUT DOWN WITH NO WARNING. TOYOTA HAS SENT CONSUMER A DIP STICK TO REPLACE ORIGINAL ONE THAT CAME WITH TRUCK. TRUCK WAS NOT RUNNING DUE TO SLUDGE OR SOME OTHER DEFICIENCY AS STATED BY DEALERSHIP. PLEASE DESCRIBE DETAILS. *AK

WHILE DRIVING, ENGINE AND VALVE TRAINS ARE NOISY. PROBLEM HAS EXISTED FOR OVER A YEAR. DEALER HAS INSPECTED VEHICLE AND STATED THAT THIS WAS A NORMAL OCCURRENCE. *AK *TT

WHILE VEHICLE IS BEING DRIVEN EXCESSIVE NOISE OCCURS IN ENGINE COMPARTMENT CAUSE UNKNOWN. PLEASE GIVE ANY FURTHER DETAILS.*AK

OIL DIPSTICK IS INCORRECTLY CALIBRATED OR IS TOO SHORT, CAUSES OVERFILL OF OIL UPON CHANGING OIL. SHOULD TAKE ONLY 6.5 QUARTS OF OIL VERSUS 7.5 WITH THIS DIPSTICK.*AK
