GOOD JOB! I to went from 2021 Tacoma TRD OR 4x4 to a new tundra 2024 TRD OR 4x4 and just absolutely love it, you hit the nail on the head sir , most people that trash talk this new tundra are either jealous or envy , this new tundra is just an awesome 1/2 ton truck INMHO .
It's my favorite truck. I'm a lexus owner myself. I will say, it wouldn't be out of the norm to find some metal on your first oil change. Pretty normal to see in a new engine. I'm glad yours was squeaky clean
I bought a 2013 tundra and did the first oil change myself. The oil filter was full of shavings, and I mean big chunks. I didn't own the truck that long and did drive it for awhile after but just thought it was crazy to see that. Judging from the recall not much has changed.
I think sometimes you’ll find some slivers and small fragments left over in oil passages from machining sometimes. But once the internet latches on it’s a much bigger deal.
Sir, I enjoy your video however I believe many have had honest issues which doesn’t necessarily mean they don’t know what they are talking about. I’m glad you and your son haven’t had any issues with your Tundra. You do a fine job changing oil by the way. Cheers!
Yes, you are right, my point was that 800 or so had an issue and 50,000 people are online making comments about it at every opportunity. Although they did have an issue, they are also addressing it and 380,000 3rd gen trucks didn’t have an issue. I think it’s just an internet thing. :)
I have a 2022 trd tundra and it’s been reliable so far. It currently has 36k miles. I tow with it , drove from California to Houston Texas and back to California. It’s been a great truck so far.
They always do what they can and make things right, even the rusty frames they recalled impressed me since every brand has frames that rust, yet only Toyota replaced many of them. Of course now people who don't know any better say only Toyotas rust, which is funny. Thanks for leaving a comment and watching Craig.
@@JimmyMakingitwork great comment. I am a die hard toyota guy never owned a truck but several Camrys , highlanders , sienna , and now a Venza. Toyota has issues too but I think generally they handle them better than other companies and stand behind their products.
Nice video, like your attitude. Totally agree with you about trolls on the internet. Just subscribed. Glad to hear you and your son both own Tundras. I just bought the 2024 Sequoia - which is basically just a Tundra without the bed and third row seat. Looking forward to more videos like this one. Thank you!
Thanks for the sub! Much appreciated! I feel for the ones who have had a problem, but most of those commenting online have zero first hand experience. Enjoy that new Sequoia!
Well, we can't deny that a lot of new Tundras have seized engines. In the recall notice, Toyota said that "machining debris was left in the engine during production." But I have ZERO doubt that Toyota has fixed this issue. It's important. Model year 2024 and beyond Tundras will be super reliable because they have to be.
Yes very true, about 840 engines have had an issue. It does appear a solid repair is on the way once enough engines are available. They have sold 380,000 3rd gen’s so far, but production is meeting demand finally so won’t be long. Thanks.
The Car Care Nut cut open a Tundra filter. It had fine sparkles in several pleats..He said it was normal on the one thousand mile break in oil change. Yours had none, is that abnormal?
I drove the 1794 Edition and I was so impressed. Super ride. Might be my next truck, but I am holding a bit more, till this glitch is behind us. I was told that the Hybrid was not involved in this block mess.
Yeah, they had about 800 problems and are from one production run from what I’m hearing. The other 380,000 have been good but even many of those are recalled in case. The 1794 is an awesome truck if the extra money isn’t an issue!
@@JimmyMakingitwork I am holding cause Toyota will need to give some candies out, so people will start coming into the dealerships more. I am keeping an eye.
@@alp3781 Hybrid’s were not on the recall because they have a second power source to limp off of the highway or out of an intersection, so they are not considered a safety issue BUT they do use the same exact gasoline engine. So time will tell.. I was looking at a GX but holding off, I still have a little trouble believing it was a debris issue. Kind of suspicious that at the same time in history Toyota made a parts change and after that date is when this issue started. Well according to a real life Toyota technician..
Carcarenuts Tundra had metal, not extreme, but it was there he put up a video on it, but his is an older model in the recall so hes not worried. I have no beef with the Tundra and would buy one because I know Toyota and they take care of their customers and they will get the problems corrected and they were not engine design failure. I bet they did a serious investigation into how metal was being left in the blocks and whoever was in charge of that is no longer working at Toyota. My wifes 2020 Camry SE 2.5l has been rock solid no issues in 4 years so far knock on wood!
You are correct that a lot of people who don't know about the problem directly are commenting silly things about this issue. Both the Toyota haters and the Toyota fanboys are in overdrive with their own spin. Haters say the sky has fallen for Toyota, but it hasn't. This isn't Toyota's first issue with quality control and it won't be their last, this happens to all manufacturers. Fanboys say it's only 800 or so engines, but even Toyota has acknowledged it affected far more than that and that the flaw was seen on field engines not currently experiencing symptoms. I just hope that Toyota does the right thing and includes the 2024 models and hybrids, as the owners deserve to have a proper resolution (a short block replacement is not that).
Last numbers I heard was 843 failures, but the recall involves far more from that production run to cover the possibilities there are more and there probably are. We will know more within about a year I suppose.
@@JimmyMakingitwork if you read the NHTSA letter that Toyota provided, they admit that it affects engines that have yet to fail. They literally disassembled working engines from the field and every one they took apart had signs of damage. The fact that our shops are still getting failed engines in tells me that the number can only grow, especially with the 2024 models also being affected and not recalled.
I bought a brand new 2024 Tundra built in the 6th month. After the vehicles' first 1000 miles I had the oil changed and took the filter home. After opening it, I discovered lots of metal. Say... 90 pieces with some being 0.75mm. That got my attention. But other people told me that was to be expected. So I just stayed nervous for a while. Yesterday at 4014 miles, I changed the oil & filter, and opened-up the filter. There was not even so much as 1 speck. Whew'. I discovered that Toyota re-engineered the main bearings. That change was implemented in January of 2024. We know this because the part number (from Toyota) changed in that month. They change the part number after a part is re-engineered. So My truck ought to be free of the main bearings recall.
Glad to hear that. New or superseded part numbers mean there is a supplier, design, or update to a part. So it could mean anything from a different way of hardening, to a change in machining process, a new supplier, or even just how they are cleaned after machining. This helps the manufacturer know they aren't using the part from the previous run. I have also heard the Re-engineered theory online, but not from anyone credible on the inside at Toyota yet and they are the only ones who really know. Thank you!
Buy at your own risk. My buddy who owns an appliance repair business in Tulsa, Ok has a ‘22 whose engine failed. Because he has an attorney involved, Toyota have not only replaced his engine, they gave him a loaner truck for several months last year, and they have cut his purchase price by like 40% in order to avoid litigation. We will see how long this 2nd engine will last. I think he has close to 50k on the clock now.
They are taking care of him, that’s a good thing. Also warrantying engines and replacing them under recall. We have three Tundras in our family and all are doing well so far. Thanks for watching.
@ they’re only taking care of him because they were initially forced to do so by legal action. I own numerous Toyotas myself, and will not be buying a new one after seeing these debacles. I’m glad some people like yourself aren’t having any trouble (yet), but no way am I taking such a risk. Let’s see how many make it to 300k without any major failures 1st. I doubt very seriously any 3.4l turbo is going to be doing that, which was just the break-in point on the old 5.7l.
You are correct, I did use 0w-20. What’s most important is the GF6 rating. Some Toyotas are now using 0w-8 from what I’ve read. Based mostly on climate.
You should always change the oil on any new engine after 1000 miles. That’s when you get metal shavings and all from the motor breaking in. Don’t wait until the first 5000 miles.
My new 4runner had small specs of colored stuff and metal not a lot just a bit. My ladies new tucson was the same. Second oil change was all good.third and so on were good aswell
True, many manufacturers are on the verge of bankruptcy trying to fix their recalls and Ford and Ram sales are tanking fast. Looks like huge layoffs coming for Stellantis.
Interesting and oh so true comment at the 14:39 mark. Jimmy, do you suppose that applies to more manufacturers than just Toyota? Ford, GM and Ram all experience the same…..
It’s not a machining issue it’s definitely a design flaw with the engines. No way they recall over 100k engines for replacement for machining debris. They already started to change the part numbers on some of the engine components which means they are fixing issues with the engine.
With any change in manufacturing a new part number, or a suffix is added. That could mean a new casting, a new cleaning process, materials, a new supplier, almost anything.
@JimmyMakingitwork maybe so, but another youtuber who is a toyota mechanic SHOWED the changed part #'s as the #1 main bearing and also piston parts. And just an FYI not everyone is a jealous person. My 22 was great right up until it ate itself 2/24 and then I only got a replacement lower half. I think toyota will make it right, but please don't discount all of us that had weeks or.months worth of problems. They are real, otherwise toyota wouldn't be replacing 100,000 engines !!
Funny how all that "machining debris" seemed to only effect the same two main bearings that both have new part numbers now, right? This whole mess with this motor has been a train wreck in slow motion for Toyota. They dodged the issue and questions at every turn up until they suddenly announced the recall. We had a new 2009 Camry with an excessive oil consumption issue which Toyota dodged and said was normal for almost a year and a half. A friend of mine was a local Toyota dealer master tech and told me on the side it was a known issue Toyota was dodging. Finally Toyota quietly issued a TSB and replaced the rings and pistons in thousands of Camry's with the issue. Toyota is better than most, but still has plenty of issues. BTW, I still drive Toyota's so I'm no hater. Just a realist who has seen behind the curtain with Toyota's issues and calls them the way I see them.
From what I’ve read it’s only a certain run and those engines are dispersed from 2022-2023 but not all of those are affected. They are recalling about 10x more than needed to be sure.
The best gas sucking hog 2014 TRD 4.6litre I bought new. Traded for a 2024 GMC DENALI 1500 3.0 Duramax and haven't regretted it since. Best mileage I have gotten 35.6 mpg.
I've done my research and like you, my father has been in the automotive trade for 40+ years. I've always loved/wanted Toyota trucks and I'm buying one. The concerns are obviously real but you are so right that many of these truck/car channels make it sound like every Tundra will blow up. I feel bad for those who have had it happen to them and Toyota seems to have a good fix. People are just looking for clickbait and they do it with ALL automakers - one UA-camr does nothing rag on Toyota about this...but he still drives a Toyota. Great channel BTW!
Really appreciate the comment and real talk Justin. I try and do reality videos and not get caught in the hype. Doesn't go viral, but I have a clear conscience. :) My won in law works at a Toyota Dealership and says their dealer ship has not seen one fail yet. They have sold hundreds. I really like this truck, it's been awesome! Thank you!
I am hearing they are recalling the 2024 tundra also to replace your engine I purchased the 2021 tundra v8 They changed the part numbers according to car care nut in the lower end makes me believe debris is only one issue
Jimmy, the genius way to remove the filter is to stab a 1/4 " wood chisel through the end of the filter. ..then untorque. Restab, as necessary. Make absolutely sure you are using a dead-blow hammer on the chisel or you could risk irreparable damage!😊
@@jeffrobinson1184 I owned a 2004 Tundra, bought it new, sold it with 235K miles, and only replaced the gasket 5 times. Never as much as a drip. Also learned that many Toyota techs typically overtighten both the filter and pan bolt, based on experience with another vehicle. I didn’t bother with torque wrench, just used very small socket handle and tightened to what felt tight enough. Again, never one problem.
@@JimmyMakingitwork machining debris was being left in engine block in 22 and some 23's. new cleaning process was started in jan of 23. trucks built after that date are not in the recall
When I bought my new 2009 GMC 3500HD Duramax, I put 500 miles on it and then changed all lubricants and filters. Put 5k miles on it, replaced all lubricants with AMSOIL and replaced all filters. My purpose being to flush out all contamination left during manufacturing.
The debris that Toyota claims is the cause of the engine failures is some next level sorcery. Somehow all of that debris manages to to only affect one area of the engine. Specifically one bearing. What people say is a failure on the part of Toyota is actually a scientific marvel that could have endless possibilities. 🧐 😂
Jimmy I know you threw out that used filter and poured new oil into a new filter! I can not believe you would gaslight the public like this shame on you! LMAO Keep making it work Jimmy
We would put the paper filter back in the vice and smash it you can see the paper a lot better and then pull it out like a according a caterpillar mechanic trick
Cleaner is better. No such thing as changing oil too soon. Quit believing the foolish 10,000 or more mile changes. That will be guaranteed problems later.
@@richardanderson1732 l think when people say that, they probably mean , don't give the dealer (manufacture) any wiggle room to void the warranty. Most people don't keep accurate records
@@JimmyMakingitwork motors are built in texas....I just googled it. Apparently your not the ultimate fan boy. But anyways when then send you the recall or it blows up. Make sure you make a video......

I've done my research and like you, my father has been in the automotive trade for 40+ years. I've always loved/wanted Toyota trucks and I'm buying one.
The concerns are obviously real but you are so right that many of these truck/car channels make it sound like every Tundra will blow up. I feel bad for those who have had it happen to them and Toyota seems to have a good fix.
People are just looking for clickbait and they do it with ALL automakers - one UA-camr does nothing rag on Toyota about this...but he still drives a Toyota.
Great channel BTW!
Really appreciate the comment and real talk Justin. I try and do reality videos and not get caught in the hype. Doesn't go viral, but I have a clear conscience. :)
My won in law works at a Toyota Dealership and says their dealer ship has not seen one fail yet. They have sold hundreds.
I really like this truck, it's been awesome!
Thank you!
At 1500 miles the engine has not broken in yet so it will have a lot of shavings.
None I’ve cut open have had any metal particles or shavings yet.
This is why I will never buy any new vehicle of any type. Everything is crap today
Thanks for watching.
Why not fill the new filter with fresh oil before installing it?
@@johnward6699 that's what people say when they can't afford new
Got some serious trolls and uninformed idiots on here Jimmy. Keep doing what you’re doing.
Haha they feel schmart, thanks Richard!
I am hearing they are recalling the 2024 tundra also to replace your engine
I purchased the 2021 tundra v8
They changed the part numbers according to car care nut in the lower end makes me believe debris is only one issue
Only time will tell.
The oil is getting to hot if add oil cooler
All in engineering.
Zero rated oil is synthetic (according to the Car Care Nut).
Might be so, haven’t seen one that wasn’t yet. At least a blend.
12:53 never knew.
Thanks for watching Benny!
Supprised it holds 8 qts I have a 8 lt big block Chevy in a motor home that only holds 7
Yeah, capacity is all over the place. Some brands or engines have 4 quarts, some 10. I suppose it depends on turbos, things like that too.
...turbos
Jimmy, the genius way to remove the filter is to stab a 1/4 " wood chisel through the end of the filter.
..then untorque.
Restab, as necessary.
Make absolutely sure you are using a dead-blow hammer on the chisel or you could risk irreparable damage!😊
Rofl, nailed it!
Put any oil on a black surface in sunlight, you will see glitter, Even new oil!
Now I have to try it. :)
And the oil pan nut is 30 foot pounds of torque and you should always use a new gasket… Hello
Thanks for watching.
@@jeffrobinson1184 I owned a 2004 Tundra, bought it new, sold it with 235K miles, and only replaced the gasket 5 times. Never as much as a drip. Also learned that many Toyota techs typically overtighten both the filter and pan bolt, based on experience with another vehicle. I didn’t bother with torque wrench, just used very small socket handle and tightened to what felt tight enough. Again, never one problem.
@@richardanderson1732 do what you want… The torque spec is 30 foot pounds and it takes 7.7 quarts… Fact
toyota changed the machining process in jan of 23
Is this from a source at Toyota?
@@JimmyMakingitwork yes. toyota engineers investigated the issue and wrote a report. it can be found online.
@@JimmyMakingitwork machining debris was being left in engine block in 22 and some 23's. new cleaning process was started in jan of 23. trucks built after that date are not in the recall
When I bought my new 2009 GMC 3500HD Duramax, I put 500 miles on it and then changed all lubricants and filters. Put 5k miles on it, replaced all lubricants with AMSOIL and replaced all filters. My purpose being to flush out all contamination left during manufacturing.
The debris that Toyota claims is the cause of the engine failures is some next level sorcery. Somehow all of that debris manages to to only affect one area of the engine. Specifically one bearing. What people say is a failure on the part of Toyota is actually a scientific marvel that could have endless possibilities. 🧐 😂
The only ones who really know are the Toyota engineers, the rest of us are just guessing with 1% of the information. ;)
Toyota did a Hyundai!
Thanks for watching.
👍🏻🇨🇦
Thank you!
That bench vise is a sweet beast!
It is an oldie but a goodie!
There not littering the highways because no one is buying them.
They have sold 380,000 so far and are on pace for a record year, 27% over last years sales.
Calling bullshit on that comment.
BS on the idahobob comment, not Jimmy’s reply.
Jimmy I know you threw out that used filter and poured new oil into a new filter! I can not believe you would gaslight the public like this shame on you! LMAO Keep making it work Jimmy
Hahaha, thanks Andrew!
We would put the paper filter back in the vice and smash it you can see the paper a lot better and then pull it out like a according a caterpillar mechanic trick
That could help if anything looks borderline.
Hey that's the same color as my new GMC but my motor is good
Glad to hear that.
🛢👍
Thanks Alex!
pendas 🤣
lol
The next truck is going to be a Toyota. I've lost all confidence in any of the offerings the domestic manufacturers have been turning out lately.
Yeah, for me it’s Toyota, GM, Ford than Ram. But everyone has a different opinion. Based on what I’m seeing in the shop for me.
@@JimmyMakingitwork Toyota, Ford, it’s a tough call between a GM and a Dodge…looks, I’d do with Dodge. I’d still lean more towards the Dodge.
Toyota Tundra’s in 2024 are complete Junk! Accesso
Thanks for watching.
Junk junk junk. Keep buying. Hahaha 🤣
Thanks for watching and leaving a comment.
U did not have to drain oil just pull filter and cicumsize it. Mfg says that is to early to change oil. This is why EV are being pushed upon us !
Thanks for watching.
Cleaner is better. No such thing as changing oil too soon. Quit believing the foolish 10,000 or more mile changes. That will be guaranteed problems later.
Why are you guys doing oil changes on your own automatically voiding your warranty
It does not void your warranty as long as it’s recorded as it is when done at our shop. We are also doing more than required.
Doing oil changes on our own does not void the warranty! Jesus, where do these people come from??
@@richardanderson1732 l think when people say that, they probably mean , don't give the dealer (manufacture) any wiggle room to void the warranty. Most people don't keep accurate records
These new Toyotas have way too much tech (giant screens, turbos, etc) and not enough quality. Toyota is becoming BMW.
Slowly but surely.
They raised the prices. Then had the motors made in a 3rd world country to save and make a buck. No thanks for me to buy a toyota.
Not sure where you get your information from, but thanks for watching.
@JimmyMakingitwork the motors where not built in Mexico?
They are built in Alabama.
@@JimmyMakingitwork motors are built in texas....I just googled it. Apparently your not the ultimate fan boy. But anyways when then send you the recall or it blows up. Make sure you make a video......
Ugliest junkiest least capable trucks on the market. Oh rust the quickest also.
Nobody worried about capability is looking at 1/2 ton trucks. But your opinion is valuable to me, thanks for letting me know.
Did you get the 2.4 twin turbo charged motor. Those a re garbage and won't last more than 100 miles at best. But they're grean if that makes you feel eny better.
Thanks for watching.
