All I've done/had done for maintenance is a few oil changes, replaced the alternator and serpentine belt, had rear brake pads and rotors replaced, replaced the battery, new tires, and new headlight bulbs. Nothing too complicated or expensive
Toyota parts reviews
We bought some excellent continental tires from the tire rack. Much quieter.
Hilux (2018) - 185km with just tire, brakes and drive train (after 6 years)
When I was researching MTF I found several experience that said the older Toyota transmissions get a little crunchy on the RedLine and I saw lots of good reports for Motul 300 75W-90 so I used that in mine earlier this year. It doesn't have issues but the shifting is ever so slightly smoother.
I had this very same problem where on my 07 V6 the acceleration and power was off. I had replaced my spark plugs with NGK Iridium plugs and after dealing with the horrible performance I decided to change them out for OEM platinum (copper) plugs. This made a huge difference and could immediately tell a night and day difference. Regained the torque and power that was missing.
Toyo's are the best tire I've ever had. They balance well, don't cup, are quiet by AT tire standards, and are great in rain and snow.
Using Amsoil. Nung pinalitan ko valve gasket ng 2008 Vios ko walang sludge. Gold ang loob.
I have a 2005 w/210,000 miles and the starter just died. Was quoted 4.5 hrs to replace = $1,200 with OEM part
My water pump was leaking this Fall at 235k. New mechanic showed me the leaky pump and it was oem toyota.
Can't speak to an Elantra N, but on my GT86 they were very noisy and very uncomfortable.
