Had a blast working on my runner last weekend...and most important I learned so much. Here is what I accomplished.
60K Maintenance Items
Changed Oil and Filter: Mobil1 Synthetic 5w30 and Toyota Filter
Changed Rear Diff Lube: Mobil1 Synthetic 75w90
Fully Flushed Auto Transmission: Mobil1 Synthetic ATF
Flushed Cooling System: Toyota Red Coolant
Changed Spark Plugs: Toyota OEM Nippon Denso
Had it not been for yotatech, i would be shelling out some bones to the stealer for these items...but i know it was done RIGHT!!!
A few notes.
1) After I flushed the tranny and i went to shift I noticed a definite improvement in the ease of shifting and even moreso when driving and shifting from 1st to second. It was a little abrupt, now it is a smooth as can be.
2) My engine runs quieter at idle with the synthetic oil.
3) The engine is more peppy with the new plugs. Nothing wrong with the wires...I'll probably wait til 90K to change those.
4) Gear Lube STINKS!!!
Should I continue to use the recommended change intervals for the synthetics or should I be able to go a little longer?
