  1. How do you get the Oil Level Check to work

    ...that someone who works as a tech/mechanic (not sure what they are called now-a-days) doesn't know how to drive a manual. If that was my job I'd make it a point to learn. Hopefully you have no issues and if you have the 2020 and your oil pump starts failing it'll happen while still under warranty.

  2. How do you get the Oil Level Check to work

    Mine was built 9/19, I bought it 7/20. I have 34,200 miles on it now. I only have 2 months left on my power train warranty so I'm glad this came up now instead of 3 months from now. But this is the first issue I've had in 4 years and 10 months of ownership, so I'm happy with that. I tried...

  3. How do you get the Oil Level Check to work

    Thank goodness you got this taken care of through Toyota. My '21 that i purchased in July of '21 brand new has a manufacturer date on the door jam of 5/21. 13,600 miles with no issues so far measuring the oil level. Im just hoping my pump has metal parts. ??

  4. How do you get the Oil Level Check to work

    Another update: The dealer talked with a Toyota engineer today. They agree it's the oil pump and I will get the new metal internals oil pump under warranty. They had to order the part and it'll take about a week to get here and then it's a 10 hour job to complete the swap. (so 2 days) Hopefully...

  5. Updated oil pump?

    I think you mean oil level and it's a good question but no I haven't seen an answer to why some cars don't like reading the level but the pump appears to be fine. It's strange because as we all know electronic components living in an oily 120 deg C+ environment long term never have any issues...

  6. Updated oil pump?

    Have folks actually determined root cause to the inability to read the oil pressure (meant to type oil level)? I have seen other posts on social media, other bmw forums and even youtube videos where folks removed the pump and no plastic is cracked and it appears there was no issue with the pump...

  7. Updated oil pump?

    ...Toyotas makes even a full engine replacement a drop in the bucket for them. For large corporations, it's all about the percentages. Also, the oil pumps fail operation is to higher oil pressure, so unless the cracked or broken plastic is catastrophic, then engine failures *should* be pretty...

  8. The Official AUSTRALIAN Thread

    Thank you my man, really appreciate that. Ye I’ve dedicated the last 4 weeks researching these cars hahaha. The market in Australia is terrible for them, there’s no 21 or 22s for sale at an expected price. There are two 2023s for 85 which I can afford, but it is definitely stretching my budget...

  9. Updated oil pump?

    Watched this a few days ago Im actually subbed to you and watched this the other day. Actually doesnt look like a bad job at all. I have a 2020 and it does fail at 18% but after i let it chill for like 30min and run the test again it always completes . So idk what to think. I may change it out...

  10. Updated oil pump?

    ...also may just blow off the level check stopping at 16% as a software bug, like I did at first. Only when I posted here did I know it was an oil pump issue. We're just waiting for the Toyota engineer to call back and for Toyota to approve the warranty work. I only have 2 months left in my...

  11. The Official AUSTRALIAN Thread

    Early cars can be tuned without sending your ECU to Femto but as Phil pointed out, there are reports of oil pump/consumption issues with some pre-2022 cars. And while I'm not keen on opening yet another auto/manual debate, anything pre-2023 is dead to me. ? With production ending soon - and...

  12. The Official AUSTRALIAN Thread

    Post 2021 would be best to avoid the oil pump concerns and the auto as a DD. Phil

  13. Updated oil pump?

    That's fine. You do whatever you think is best for you. My recommendation was not based on forum posts. I searched through dozens of recorded pump failures in TAS, which is Toyota dealership technical assistance. Not every repair makes it to TAS; that is reserved for technicians who need help...

  14. Updated oil pump?

    ...vast vast majority of us. This isn’t like swapping out an air filter. If a few years down the road us 2020 and 2021 owners start having oil pumps dropping like flies I’m sure there will be legal actions initiated and I’ll start paying attention at that point. Until that happens I’m not...

  15. Updated oil pump?

    This was a very detailed educational video :thumbsup:

  16. Updated oil pump?

    That's a decent assumption, though I'm not 100% sure. While that has been the case in my experience, I searched again and found 2 TAS cases where the pump was bad and threw oil pressure codes, but there was no mention of the oil level measurement in the repair notes. That may have been because...

  17. Official Oil consumption thread: Car excessively burning oil?

    ...all the oil out and do a measurement for whatever reason) so I brought the car back for a follow up consumption test and they were unable to measure the oil again. SO, it looks like they're going to replace the oil pump, pistons, and piston rings to resolve the issues they are seeing under...

  18. Updated oil pump?

    Ah, thank you so much for the detailed explanation. :headbang: Ok, so kinda fair to say that if, as long as my weekly "measure engine oil level" still completes the process up to 100%, I'm still safe?

  19. Updated oil pump?

    2021 with an 07/2020 build date. Pump failed and has been replaced under warranty.

  20. Updated oil pump?

    This is not a recall or TSB on the Toyota side. There is a tech tip on the BMW side that I posted in another thread, but its from Canada (seems to be mostly a cold weather issue?) And no, not just if it fails - if you have issues measuring your oil level (only reads to 18%) the plastic adjusting...
