I’ve replaced the starter, left front and rear wheel bearings, parking brake cables, rear calipers, front struts, upper and lower ball joints, inner and outer tie rods. Of course reg oil and filter changes. I want to keep it as long as I can!

I purchased my brand new Tundra in 2008 with a sprayed in bed liner. At 28,000 mile the truck experienced a crack in the passenger side exhaust manifold causing a leak (repaired under warranty). From there the truck experienced absolutely no problems and was flawless until the odometer reached 150,000 miles and was 12 years old. This is when the truck started experiencing a couple of serious and expensive problems. First the bed had rusted from underneath around 3 of 4 bed mounting points, completely through. I was unable to detect it at an earlier stage due to the bed liner covering up the problem. It cost me $3,500 to a restoration shop to remove the bed, fix the rust, have a new bed liner sprayed in and also had them sandblast the frame, spray the frame with an industrial grade rust inhibitor and then spray the frame with bed liner material. Though the frame didn’t exhibit any serious rust issues, I had this done as a precaution knowing that the Tundra’s had serious issues with frame rust. Note: I do not live in the rust belt. Secondly, at 154,000 miles, the secondary air injection failed. That was another $2,500. At 155,000 miles the fan clutch failed. I replaced the clutch myself at a cost of $140.00. Since then truck has been relatively repair free and currently has 181,000 miles on it. Everything else under the hood is still original other than the battery and cooling hoses of course. It still runs strong and rides great.

I traded my 07 with 250k miles. Changed out the struts. And the starter went out on me in the middle of nowhere which was the only real negative. Otherwise bulletproof. I even had the original plugs in it. Never felt a loss of power or mileage. Took it into our local mechanic that takes care of my company trucks at 200 k miles and said do what needs to be done because I plan on keeping it for a while. He called me the next day and said he checked pretty much everything and even pulled a couple plugs and and they looked fine. $100 was my cost. Came into a little extra $ in 2020 decided to upgrade. Looked at the domestics and they were nice but reliability meant too much so I bought another Tundra. Going for 300k miles on this one.

Snatched 2021 Tundra off road with sport package and navi in late 2020, for 45k, right after the prices took a hit becauee of covid and right before they balooned up to over 60k. Probably the best purchase I'll ever make. Last V8 version produced.

Bought old man emu heavy duty springs online...extra leaf also had to put a bracket to pushy the tailpipe down an inch to clear the springs. Standard. Took a cpl hours. Raised my rear up about 3 inches, did bilstein shocks at the same time. Also did front struts as my wheel tended to wander and grab ruts. All in 1 strut assembly was far cheaper than get in g coils and shocks done separately. Did those myself as well. So stiff now, doesn't compress much when loaded. Before it would bottom out real easy. Drives way better. Front struts made a huge difference as well. Felt like brand new.

170k on mine. Replaced the struts at 150ish and put Monroe OESpectrum on the rear and Monroe quickstruts on the front and the Monroe's SUCK!!! They are super stiff. I bought the truck with 141k on it, and I think it had the driveshaft rebuilt at some point. The fan pulley just took a poop, so replaced all the pulleys including the tensioner pulley which was also found to be broken. So I'd say the pulleys need replacing every 150k or so based on what I've read and seen. The alternator problems I have found stem from getting fluid in them. The alternator is located low on this truck, so good posibility getting coolant from a leaky water pump or whatever is leaking. Otherwise, I haven't done anything on it in 30k miles other than the pulleys and shocks.

mine its 2010 tundra has 265, 000 miles on it. replaced started twice, and alternator. the gentleman at the bottom comment section is right, it is better to buy original parts when replacing stuff on a toyota. the auto zone crap is not good. maybe if you trying to sell it but not for yourself.

Nice 👍🏻 I’ve got an 07 2wd sr5, pretty similar to yours, only about 143000, think I replaced tires more than anything. The standard shocks were not the best, we put Bilstien on it got a little better, 85000 the water pump under warranty. Secondary air pump about 6 months ago (135000) Those trim pieces for the windows, I replaced all at once, there’s a KZitem video, Also the antenna mount, it’s harder than the windows, also videos help a lot

Driveshaft replacement at $590? Shit. What have I been doing all these years with Dodge? I have a 2013 Dodge Durango siting my driveway with 180,000 miles and the dealer said they wanted $6,000 (exactly what the vehicle is worth) to fix the driveshaft, steering rack and the power steering fluid leak. They said the driveshaft by itself would cost $2,500! The rest? Was the replacement of the steering rack and the power steering fluid leak. It's so clear I'll be buying a Toyota on my next new vehicle. No more fucking around with "American" made vehicles. I know dealers are expensive, but Jeep/Chrysler/Dodge just rips you off!

I have a 2011 Tundra Crewmax with about 236k miles. A Firestone told me my rear main seal is barely leaking. But, that's like a $1,300 repair. Other than that the fan clutch was squeaking. So, I replaced that myself. I figured I'd use that opportunity to replace the serpentine belt. That cost less than $100 for everything. But, the biggest issue I've had was the fuel pump going out, then a few more reading incorrectly. The original gave out and let me run out of fuel. I dropped the fuel tank and replaced the pump; then, it just consistently read at zero. So, I returned it and got a third one. Now, it reads a lot less than the actual quantity, except when completely full. So, I've given up and just rely on the trip function on the dashboard. Overall, I absolutely love this truck. But, that fuel pump thing is annoying. Also, I wish I had a 6.5' bed and backseat that folded up. Ofher than that, it's near perfect.

My first Tundra was 07. Bed rusted thru right behind wheel wells. Toyota replaced entire truck bed/fenders assembly plus painted, etc. made me a happy customer so I bought a ‘14 Platinum. Surely after 7 years of dealing with rusted out beds Toyota would have fixed that problem? Nope. This time they wouldn’t replace the rusted bed. At next trade-in time I opted for an aluminum truck. Sorry.

Engine will probably last longer without a K&N filter, they don't filter the finer particles like oem type filter. I used to use K&N until I saw a very simple demonstration. put a clean prepped filter over a clean white surface, then sprinkle some sand on them. Give them about 5 taps and you'll see how one lets sand and such grit thru while the oem does not.

Actually,your truck is doing remarkably well for the miles that has traveled,I have the same 2007 tundra and the air pumps went bad and unfortunately they were out of warranty so I got stuck with a 2700 bill.. other than that the only issue is a bit of vibration when take off …the mileage I’d 181000 so I guess is not bad so far

I have an 07 SR5 4x4 5.7 It's had very little maintenance other than oil changes etc I have 213k on mine. it had u-joints changed on the front drive shaft at some point according to records. I'm the 3rd owner the guy I purchased from needed a bigger truck owned it a year or so. The radio was shot when I got it had volume issues so replaced it with aftermarket. Previous owner replaced starter and a hub its still on original alternator and water pump. Things on my list are spark plugs, replacing breather hoses as they are starting to crack and radiator hoses. I've installed slotted rotors on the front which really help the truck stop I have them for the back just have not installed yet. I did have a knock sensor go out and it looks like my evaporator coil will need to be replaced not looking forward to that as the entire dash has to come out. Exterior wise clearcoat is coming off and could use a new rear bumper truck could use a new paint job. Overall not a bad truck I paid 10.5k for it and its only driven about 5k a year mainly from work and back and hauling when needed. Old truck that meets my needs.

Nice. I was lucky to have the records when I bought this one. I’d say just do it all in one round and start the clock over. I’m pretty sure they call for trans drain/fill at 120k for standard use. Difs I think are 60k for fluid replacement, 120k spark plugs, and then your normal coolant, steering and brake fluid swaps. Dif fluid is probably easiest of those.

I bought my 08' new. I replaced those window seals, mine split apart. They're really easy to replace. The loose panels below the headlights are called extension panels. They push in and pull out of rubber grommets. The plastic gets brittle and breaks off. I replaced them as well, they're $46 bucks on Sparks Toyota. Keep an eye on your bed mount bolts where they mount to the frame. Toyota didn't seal that area properly and the bed floor rusts out on all four corners. There was a TSB for it. I had the rust removed and sprayed over those areas. My timing chain is noisy on cold starts and also need my tensioner and pulleys replaced but I really don't want to get into that

Nice! Thanks for the tips! The tensioner and idler pulley are relatively easy - could be a fix to belt squeals if you have some time on your hands. I’ll look into those seals though and thanks for the info on the extension panels
