Should you buy a Toyota Tundra? A Toyota master diagnostic technician shares the common issues and things you should know about the outgoing generation of the Toyota Tundra.

In this video I share some of the common issues I see with the 2007-2021 Toyota Tundra through my experience as a Toyota master diagnostic technician.

The Tundra is often called Ancient and honestly that's the principal reason why it's a good truck to buy. But the question is should you buy this generation or wait for the new 2022 Tundra? I hope this video helps answer that question.

I break my common problems videos into sections as follows:

1- Engine Category: The Tundra came with many engine options including the 1GR-FE 4.0L V6 the 2UZ-FE 4.7L V8 and the 4.6 and 5.7 UR-FE engines. Most notable issue on the 5.7 is the broken valve springs and the leaking cam towers.

2- Transmission and 4WD : The transmission is relatively problem free however many have voiced their concerns over the lack of an external transmission cooler which is addressed in this video.

3- Chassis : I address common brake issues including the scraping noise from the rear brakes.

4- Electrical issues including radio issues and issues with aftermarket remote starters.

5- I cover common issues with the frame rusting on this model tundra.

6- I also go over the best year to buy recommendations.

I hope this video helps potential buyers, future and current owners better take care of their tundras and understand them better.
