TSB performed for poorly shifting auto transmission. Software update from Toyota helps some but the truck still has the poorest shifting auto transmission I have ever experienced. I have been driving since 1980.

The rear water bypass had a fine hair-like crack that leaked coolant. It was a slow leak and was only evident upon checking the underside of the engine. The rear water bypass was replaced (This rear water bypass repair is not covered by the power train warranty) with a new one, however, after a month of driving, the engine has overheated and when I checked the coolant in the reservoir, it was empty. The next day, I returned it to the dealership and the mechanic told me that due to the engine overheating, it might now have blown the cylinder head gasket. The mechanic showed me the coolant residue where he suspects is coming from. Due to the on going coolant leak issue, I just sold the tacoma to the dealership before the powertrain warranty expires and ordered a new one. :=)

Clutch master cylinder noisy and sticky Rear axle makes a slight howling noise at 55mph. They replaced some isolators for some heat shield, but the noise didn’t go away. After reading on the internet, it looks like it is a pretty widespread issue with no solution. Decided to live with it.
