Choosing 2021 Toyota Land Cruiser Tires

Beyond the correct tire size, you also want to consider a handful of other factors when buying new Toyota Land Cruiser tires like where and how you drive, and what tire brand you trust most. When evaluating your driving conditions, think about where you live (countryside vs. city vs. mountains) and the kind of unexpected weather you're likely to experience. It's not uncommon for drivers in states that experience all four seasons to buy more than one set of tires. one for summer and one for winter. Other drivers prefer to purchase one all-season set to limit trips to the tire shop and make sure their vehicle is prepared in the rain, sleet, snow, or sun!

Next, consider your driving style. If you're an avid off-roader who yearns to pioneer new paths, you have very different tire needs than a highway commuter who doesn't hit the hills very often. Visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for help selecting the tire that's right for you, or get started by browsing tires that fit your Toyota Land Cruiser.

Questions About 2021 Toyota Land Cruiser Tires

  • Can brake fluid leak when my Land Cruiser is off?

  • Why does my Toyota engine sound different?  Strange under-the-hood noises can point to problems within your Toyota Land Cruiser engine. Tapping or knocking could mean you need an oil change. Whistling sounds could mean you have an intake leak or misaligned belt. Squealing may be caused by a loose fan belt, and grinding could be a sign that something is wrong with your brakes — not the engine.

Frequently Asked Toyota Land Cruiser Tire Repair Questions

  • Can I drive my Toyota on a flat tire? Driving on a flat or underinflated tire can put extra stress on your wheels and alignment.

  • Can I use an emergency/temporary sealant to fix my Toyota's flat tire? Fast fixes are a mixed blessing. They’ll help you get your Toyota Land Cruiser to Firestone Complete Auto Care, but don’t count on them to keep you on the road for very long. Using a temporary sealant may also void a Bridgestone or Firestone tire warranty.
  • What can cause Land Cruiser tires to keep losing air?  If your Land Cruiser tires are always losing air, you may have a puncture, damaged wheel, or leaking valve stem.

Answers to Your Toyota Land Cruiser Car Battery Questions

  • Why won't my Toyota Land Cruiser battery stay charged?  A battery that won't hold a charge is almost as good as dead. The battery might be old. Or, you may have a habit of leaving your car doors open and the lights on overnight. Stop by for a free battery test at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care to learn more about the state of your battery.
  • How long do car batteries last? The typical 12-volt car battery may last three to five years, depending on the type of battery, the driving conditions, and how well the battery is maintained.
  • What is the white, crusty substance accumulating on my Land Cruiser’s battery post?  The white, crusty stuff that can accumulate around Land Cruiser car battery terminals is called corrosion. It is caused by a chemical reaction between the battery acid and the air, which creates a white, powdery substance that can build up on the terminals over time. Corrosion can interfere with the flow of electricity between the battery post and the car's electrical system, sometimes leading to poor electrical performance, difficulty starting, and even premature battery failure.

Oil Changes for 2021 Toyota Land Cruiser

Toyota recommends changing your 2021 Land Cruiser’s oil at regular intervals. No matter the mileage, your Land Cruiser may need its oil changed ASAP if your check engine light is on, you hear knock knock knock coming from the engine, smell oil inside the car, or notice an unusual amount of exhaust. You might need an oil change more frequently than what’s recommended by Toyota if you regularly haul heavy loads, drive in dusty areas, enjoy off-roading, or drive at low speeds for long distances.

Whether it’s synthetic, conventional, or a blend of both — your local Firestone Complete Auto Care has the right oil for your Toyota Land Cruiser. Talk with a teammate and consult your owner's manual before picking a motor oil. At Firestone Complete Auto Care, you can choose from the following oils: Quaker State® Advanced Durability™ conventional oil, Pennzoil® High Mileage Vehicle® motor oil, Pennzoil Platinum® Full Synthetic motor oil with PurePlus™ Technology, and Shell Rotella® heavy-duty engine oil. In an oil change service, one of our techs will change your Land Cruiser’s oil, replace and recycle the old oil and filter, inspect all of your other filters, top-off essential fluids, and perform a courtesy inspection on your entire vehicle. Let the experts take care of your Land Cruiser’s engine by making an oil change appointment today.

Oil Change Q&A for Your 2021 Toyota Land Cruiser

  • Why is the oil light on in my Toyota Land Cruiser?  Your Toyota Land Cruiser oil change reminder light may come on if you're overdue for an oil change. The oil pressure light will typically come on if the oil level in the engine is too low, the oil pump is failing, you have a clogged oil filter, or there's a faulty oil pressure sensor.
  • Can I change my Toyota oil on my own?  Changing your own oil isn't as convenient as you might think. It requires special tools and old oil must be disposed of properly. Having your oil professionally changed reduces the chances of something going wrong with the oil change, but also with your vehicle down the road.
  • Why is my Toyota Land Cruiser spewing blue or gray exhaust smoke?  There could be an oil leak and your engine is burning oil. Time to have a qualified technician check things out. The leak could be caused by several issues like leaking valve seals, damaged piston rings, or worn cylinder walls.

Talk to a technician about your driving style, mileage, and service history to learn more about your vehicle's specific needs.

*Check with a teammate at Firestone Complete Auto Care for complete terms and conditions regarding warranties.

Questions About 2021 Toyota Land Cruiser Engine Tune-Ups

  • When should Toyota Land Cruiser spark plugs be replaced?  Replace spark plugs on time or about every 30,000 miles or so. Without the spark of electricity created by spark plugs, your engine doesn’t have the combustion it needs to start — which could leave you stranded on the road. Always replace your spark plugs on time based on Toyota’s recommendations.
  • What should I do if I see leaks under my Land Cruiser? Puddles could indicate that your vehicle is leaking coolant, oil, or brake fluid. Ignoring these leaks can lead to permanent engine damage, so address these symptoms ASAP with a tune-up service.
  • How often do Toyota Land Cruiser fuel injectors need to be cleaned? The cleaning schedule for vehicle fuel injectors varies depending on your driving conditions and the type of fuel you use. Some manufacturers suggest cleaning your fuel system as part of routine maintenance, while others will recommend it on an as-needed basis if you’re experiencing poor performance. Reference your Toyota owner’s manual for exact guidelines.

2021 Land Cruiser Toyota Steering & Suspension Services

During the first few years you had your 2021 Toyota Land Cruiser, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your Land Cruiser bounces, leans to one side, or makes a weird sound when you drive over a speed bump or turn. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2021 Toyota Land Cruiser, bring it in for steering and suspension repairs. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work.

2021 Toyota Land Cruiser Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Why is my Toyota Land Cruiser bouncing so much?  If it feels like you’re on a trampoline every time your Land Cruiser goes over a bump or dip, you may have a problem with your struts or shocks. Faulty shocks and struts can’t properly absorb road bumps, leading to a bouncy ride.
  • Why does my Land Cruiser tilt forward when I hit the brakes?  The forward momentum and weight transfer to the front wheels during braking can cause your Land Cruiser's front end to dip forward. A damaged or faulty suspension system may fail to distribute the weight and force effectively, causing the front end to dip even more.
  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Land Cruiser's steering and suspension?  Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need new tires. A tire that doesn't have an adequate amount of tread can't grip the road or function as well as the manufacturer intended.

2021 Toyota Land Cruiser A/C Service Near You

Technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care are ready to help you address your 2021 Toyota Land Cruiser A/C problems. In this A/C performance inspection, we’ll check out the current condition of your 2021 Toyota Land Cruiser A/C system to evaluate what repairs are necessary (if any). We’ll test overall system performance, check for any leaks, and measure the system pressure.

Let's say we repair your 2021 Toyota Land Cruiser A/C system. We will also perform an A/C evacuation and recharge. To start this process, a technician will flush out the old refrigerant from your vehicle’s A/C system. Next, they will evacuate the system according to Toyota's recommendations. The A/C system is recharged with new refrigerant.

Frequently Asked Questions for 2021 Toyota Land Cruiser A/C Systems

  • Why do I get hot air from my Land Cruiser A/C? Maybe your A/C starts cool but then gets warm. Or maybe it never gets cold in the first place. Either way, your A/C troubles could be traced back to a clogged expansion valve, faulty compressor clutch, blown fuse, or leak.
  • What causes A/C system leaks? To put it simply, age and moisture are some of the main causes of leaks in your A/C. Over time, rubber gaskets and seals can wear out, which pushes much-needed refrigerant out of your Land Cruiser’s A/C system — and lets outside moisture get in, which can take a toll on internal A/C components.
  • Why does my vehicle have to be moving for my Land Cruiser’s A/C to work? There could be issues with one or more components in the air conditioning or electrical system. Your Land Cruiser may have a faulty cooling fan or low refrigerant.

2021 Toyota Land Cruiser Transmission Service & Repairs

Your transmission carries power from the engine to the wheels so that you can drive at the speed you desire. Since the transmission has to translate the precise amount of power for your desired amount of speed, a tiny transmission issue can take a major toll on your car’s performance. 2021 Toyota Land Cruiser transmission issues could include shifting delays, jumping or grinding during acceleration, the car shaking at any speed, or whistling noises and a burning smell coming from under the hood. Let Toyota Land Cruiser transmission problems linger and you might notice your fuel economy decrease or find that your Land Cruiser isn’t working at all. Our technicians know how to service your 2021 Land Cruiser up to Toyota-recommended standards. If you think there’s something wrong with your Land Cruiser’s transmission, schedule an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care to help diagnose, treat, and prevent major transmission issues.

Questions About 2021 Toyota Land Cruiser’s Transmission

  • When should I have my Land Cruiser's transmission fluid checked or exchanged?  Caring for your Toyota Land Cruiser’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it perform. About every 30,000 to 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your transmission fluid inspected and perhaps changed. Service intervals can vary depending on how you use your Toyota, so check with your technician first. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Can transmission fluid leak from my Toyota Land Cruiser?  Yes. Toyota Land Cruiser transmission fluid can leak as time passes, which may lead to transmission problems. Transmission fluid leaks are often caused by worn or damaged transmission components, such as the transmission pan, cooler lines, seals, or housing. An overfilled transmission may also be behind your transmission fluid leak.
  • Should I avoid driving my Toyota Land Cruiser if there is a transmission fluid leak?  You should avoid driving with a transmission fluid leak. Your transmission system relies on transmission fluid to operate properly, and a leak may decrease performance, cause your Land Cruiser to overheat, or even lead to transmission failure.

Vehicle Inspection for 2021 Toyota Land Cruiser

When you bring your vehicle to Firestone Complete Auto Care for any service, we’ll automatically do a multi-point Courtesy Check. The technician will begin by testing your Toyota Land Cruiser's battery to see how much charge it has left – and determine if it may fail in the near future. After we’ve inspected your Toyota Land Cruiser’s battery, we’ll visually inspect your lights, windshield wipers, filters, alignment, tires, hoses, belts and fluid levels.

Every service performed at your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care will include a Courtesy Check, but you can also request a Complete Vehicle Inspection for your 2021 Toyota Land Cruiser if you suspect there may be a bigger problem.

Depending on your location, your local Firestone Complete Auto Care may be able to perform state-mandated inspections or safety tests on your vehicle. Inspections are performed on a state-by-state basis and requirements vary.

Common 2021 Toyota Land Cruiser Vehicle Inspection Questions

  • How do I know if my Toyota Land Cruiser needs a check-up? You drive your car, day in and day out, so you know it best. If you notice unusual engine noises or you can’t shake the feeling that something is 'off,' start with a Courtesy Check to stay ahead of potential issues.

  • When should I get a complete vehicle inspection for my Toyota Land Cruiser?  The best time to have a complete vehicle inspection done on your Toyota Land Cruiser is when you notice something is off but you can’t locate the issue yourself. Schedule an inspection if you experience any unusual symptoms, such as unfamiliar dashboard indicators, strange engine noises, or steering changes. An inspection can be especially beneficial before a road trip for the simple peace of mind. You can feel confident in your adventure!

2021 Toyota Land Cruiser Radiator Service

Regular, proactive service on the radiator in your 2021 Toyota Land Cruiser is crucial to keep your engine in the best possible shape for years to come. Toyota recommends that you replace coolant (also called antifreeze) at certain intervals, but it’s also wise to keep an eye out for signs of a failing radiator. You might be driving around (or about to be stranded) with a failing radiator if you see coolant leaks under your car, high engine temperatures, or a dashboard light that indicates low coolant.

At Firestone Complete Auto Care, we start by performing a thorough inspection of your Toyota Land Cruiser cooling system. Then, we’ll move on to a machine-powered coolant exchange. Finally, we’ll refill the flushed sealants, lubricants and chemicals, then do a pressure check to catch any possible leaks. When it comes to radiator service and repair, we’ll take excellent care of your 2021 Toyota Land Cruiser at Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Common Toyota Land Cruiser Radiator Questions

  • Why is the coolant light on my Toyota dashboard on?  Pay attention to the temperature gauge and lights on your dashboard. If a low coolant warning light comes on or your dashboard temperature gauge keeps rising, it’s likely that your engine is about to overheat (and could leave you stranded on the road). Wait for the engine to cool down, then have your coolant system checked immediately at your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care.
  • What can cause my Land Cruiser to overheat?  If your Toyota Land Cruiser engine overheats, it could be because of a clogged radiator, a damaged thermostat, a faulty cooling fan, a malfunctioning water pump, or low coolant levels.
  • What is making my Land Cruiser radiator sound like it’s boiling or rumbling?  Air pockets in your Land Cruiser’s cooling system may cause a rumbling or boiling noise. You could also have a clogged radiator or simply need to replace the radiator cap.
