Yup, it's the thread yall being waiting for

120k
Gen3 tundra
Oil sample taken
About to send to black stone
Yes, I'm in the recall group
With factory motor that has metal in it, supposedly

Will update soon
So in the meantime
Kick back, relax, drive the snot outta your gen3, & stay tuned
hehehe

Toyoda should be compensating me for my loyalty

Haters & lovers rejoice
It's about to get spicy

 

That’s good

 

Love it! Wear it out, then get a new engine for free & start over again!

 

Here's the sample oil for black stone....
About to transfer into their bottle & send to them tomorrow

This small sample is overwhelming powerful for gen3 knowledge, right?

I can't wait to get the results back
Will post results immediately for yall

Keep driving peeps
Toyota is not perfect, but there is nothing better atm,
toyoda love for life...
This sub continental Asian loves his Japanese products endlessly

 

I wonder if the million tundra guy is out driving the snot outta a gen 3?
Wonder how many miles he has, if so?

 

What’s a few metal shavings between friends?

 

What’s the turn around time coming back from blackstone?

 

That's never going to work. It's contaminated with nasty Dasani water residue now. That report's coming back red

 

Probably because you’re running 5w30. If only
Toyota was smart enough to recommend it…..

 

I specifically dried out all the water vapor in this bottle prior to filling it....hehehe

 

Me run 0w20 every 10k like the manufacturer & manual states
So far so good
Blackstone report will verify this, huh?
I can't wait, & I suspect the same for my fellow tundras.com members

 

My samples have usually taken about 2-3 weeks from me sending it to getting the report.

Super interested to see what they say. Every time I send them oil they say to go on a longer interval. First sample I sent was a 4500 mi OCI, then 6400 - on the last one they said to try 8-9k. I’m gonna give that a shot since I have to get the engine swap done by next February bc CA won’t let me re-register it with the recall open next year.

 

I have to admit, I haven't been waiting for this thread......

 

Turn around times should be less now that Blackstone increased their prices to 40 bucks a bottle. Yeah, don't drain a sample in to any container than the one they provide. It's said to cause premature engine failure from machining debris.

 

The oil was to hot when you put it in the plastic bottle as evidence by the bottle deforming. It’s good enough for metals content, but other possible contaminants might be suspect. Make sure to post that as a disclaimer with your results.

 

Sure is nasty looking at 10K miles. I can’t stand it at 5K. Thanks for holding true to the design spec to see how it performs. Anxious to see the BStone report along with your prev history.

 

The one time I did 10k it was the foulest smelling oil I have ever encountered. I resolved to never do that again, until now but my new engine is on its way so I am not sinking any value or maintenance into it at this point.

 

And I thought this was going to be update on the '26 models.

 

Awesome. Would love to see it. Interested to hear if Blackstone thinks hot oil into a Dasani bottle will contaminate the sample with microplastics. I would assume it’s not going to mess with the metals content, but who knows?

Would you mind kindly dropping your high mileage oil report in this thread of oil reports for ALL generations of Tundras?

According to Grok, Americans consume 74k-121k particles of microplastics each year.

 

It's $35

 

I've performed 12 total oil changes in 3 years
& 120k+ miles, every 10k like manual states

Never did any early oil changes either
(On all my previous new toyotas I did the oil at 500 & 1000 miles, then went to the standard every 5k)

Never noticed a foul smell btw
Maybe next time I'll take a better smell sampling....hehehe

 

I just called them & asked about the Dasani water bottle....not an issue

I can't wait to know what the fudge is going on inside my motor....excited & anxious
Fun stuff

Will add my report to that thread

 

Not according to blackstone....they stated it's no biggie & folks do it all the time with no compromise in results

 

Did you get the email recently? The one about the price increase?

 

I received the email of the price increase as well.

 

Price increase
As of 2/1/25, sample cost is $40. Bulk prices are not changing!
