About 2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser Tires

Beyond the correct tire size, there are a couple of other factors to consider when buying Toyota FJ Cruiser tires like how and where you drive, and how much you want to spend. Think about where you live (countryside vs. city vs. mountains) and the kind of unexpected weather you're likely to experience when evaluating your driving conditions. 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 buy one set of all-season tires instead. That way they don't have to return to the tire shop and their vehicle is always ready for sun, rain, and light snow!

Driving style is next on the list to think about when buying tires. If you're a big off-roading fan who forges paths where others can't, you have very different needs than a long-distance commuter who sticks to the highway. Talk to a tire technician at Firestone Complete Auto Care for help choosing the best tire for you, or start shopping for Toyota FJ Cruiser tires online.

  • Is there an easy way to check Toyota tire tread depth? Stay on top of your tire tread depth to help avoid a dangerous drive. You can check tread depth with a penny.

They’ll help you get your Toyota FJ Cruiser to Firestone Complete Auto Care, but don’t count on them to keep you on the road for very long.

2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser Maintenance Questions

  • When should I have Toyota FJ Cruiser alignment checked?  Check your car for pothole damage! If you’ve recently hit a pothole (or even if you don’t remember hitting one… they can be sneaky!) check your tire treads, tire sidewalls, and wheels for damage. Potholes can also knock your car out of alignment, so have your alignment checked if you suspect you’ve driven over a rough patch of road lately.
  • When should I use high mileage oil in my Toyota FJ Cruiser?  Got 75,000+ miles on the odometer? Consider high mileage motor oil. High mileage oil is formulated to address the specific problems encountered by high mileage vehicles, or those with more than 75,000 miles. It can help reduce oil consumption, smoke, and emissions from older Toyota FJ Cruiser engines.
  • Can I ignore dashboard lights on my Toyota?  It's better to get them addressed as soon as possible.

Stop by for a complimentary battery check at your favorite Firestone Complete Auto Care and get a handle on your car battery’s health.
  • How long can I expect my car battery to last?  A car battery normally lasts three to five years, but this number can vary based on battery type, your driving habits, and battery maintenance.
  • What is the white, crusty stuff around my FJ Cruiser’s battery post?  A chemical reaction between battery acid and the air can cause a white, crusty buildup to form on the terminals of your FJ Cruiser car battery. This buildup — known as corrosion — can impede the flow of electricity and cause a range of issues, from poor performance to premature battery failure.

Oil Changes for 2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser

Your 2014 FJ Cruiser’s oil should be changed according to Toyota’s recommended oil change intervals. Outside of Toyota-recommended oil change intervals, your FJ Cruiser may need an oil change if your check engine light is on, you hear engine knocking, smell oil inside the car, or notice excess vehicle exhaust. You might need an oil change more frequently than what’s recommended by Toyota if you regularly haul heavy loads, frequent dusty roads, go off-roading a lot, 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 FJ Cruiser. Consult Toyota's recommendations to select the right  2014 FJ Cruiser oil and talk with a teammate to learn more about our oil options: 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. During your oil change service, one of our techs will change your FJ Cruiser’s oil, replace and recycle the old oil and filter, inspect all of your other filters, refill vital car fluids, and visually inspect the rest of the vehicle. Make an appointment for an oil change service today and let the oil experts take care of your FJ Cruiser's engine.

Oil Change Q&A for Your 2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser

  • What can cause the oil light on my Toyota FJ Cruiser to illuminate?  Your Toyota FJ Cruiser oil change reminder light might illuminate if it’s been too long since your last oil change. On the other hand, the oil pressure light might illuminate due to a clogged oil filter, a faulty oil pressure sensor, low engine oil levels, or a malfunctioning oil pump.
  • How hard is it to change Toyota FJ Cruiser oil at home?  Changing engine oil at home isn’t as simple as it’s made out to be. You’ll have to figure out how to properly dispose of the oil and buy special tools. Having your oil changed professionally can not only reduce the risk of something going wrong during the service, but it’ll also help your car perform smoothly down the road.
  • Why is my Toyota exhaust smoke gray or blue?  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.

2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser Tune-Up & Engine Service

Periodic tune-ups can bring more power back to your FJ Cruiser’s engine. Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care offers a range of engine tune-up services for your 2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser. One option is the standard Firestone Tune-Up. This includes the installation of new spark plugs and a visual inspection of your engine’s components, plus a lifetime warranty on parts*. The second service focuses on your FJ Cruiser's filters, specifically replacing the air filter and fuel filter. Our third service is a thorough cleaning of the fuel system. During this type of tune-up, we use a three-step process to get rid of harmful varnish, dirt, and carbon deposit buildup in your FJ Cruiser’s fuel injectors, throttle body, and throttle plate. The result? Restored fuel system performance. Keep in mind that your FJ Cruiser's mileage and maintenance history can uniquely impact its tune-up needs. Ask one of our technicians what your vehicle needs, based on your driving habits and your car’s current condition.

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

2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser Engine Tune-Up Q&A

  • Will it hurt my Toyota FJ Cruiser to drive with old spark plugs?  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 does a puddle underneath my Toyota FJ Cruiser mean? Puddles could indicate an oil leak, coolant leak, or brake fluid leak– all of which can critically hurt your engine. Have your engine inspected as soon as you spot a pool of liquid in your usual parking spot.
  • How frequently do the fuel injectors in my Toyota FJ Cruiser need to be cleaned? There is no hard and fast rule on how often fuel injectors should be cleaned, and it can vary based on driving habits and fuel type. Some manufacturers may suggest including a fuel system cleaning in your regular maintenance schedule. Or you may need to clean your fuel injectors as needed if you notice signs of a fuel system problem.

2014 FJ Cruiser Toyota Steering & Suspension Services

During the first few years you had your 2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser, you probably enjoyed a smooth and steady ride. Now, however, things are starting to feel a little rough. Maybe your FJ Cruiser bounces, pulls to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. The first sign of problems is a good time to bring your 2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser in for steering and suspension repairs. We'll get to the root of the problem and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we’ll explain what your car needs and how much it’ll cost to get it done. We won't begin any work without your permission.

Questions About 2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser Steering & Suspension

  • Why does my Toyota FJ Cruiser bounce so much? Damaged struts or shocks can't dampen road bumps properly, causing your vehicle to feel like a trampoline after each dip or bump.
  • Why does my FJ Cruiser tilt forward when I hit the brakes?  When you brake, the forward momentum combined with your vehicle's weight sends a lot of force to the vehicle's front end. A bad suspension can cause all that weight and force to push the front end downward.
  • Does tire pressure and tread depth impact my Toyota's suspension?  Proper tire care can reduce strain on the suspension system, and also alert you to the need for new tires. Uneven tire wear is one sign of steering and suspension system problems, but it can also contribute to more.

2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser A/C Service Near You

Our trained technicians will do what they can to solve your 2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser A/C problems. During an A/C performance check, we'll determine the condition of your 2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser A/C system to determine whether repair work is needed. This check will include an examination of system pressure, a visual inspection, and a leak test.

Let's say we repair your 2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser A/C system. We will also perform an A/C evacuation and recharge. To do this, one of our technicians will remove the refrigerant in your A/C system (if there is even any left to remove). Next, they will evacuate the system according to Toyota's recommendations. Finally, we’ll recharge the A/C system with new refrigerant.

Frequently Asked Questions for 2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser A/C Systems

  • Why do I get hot air from my FJ Cruiser A/C? If your car’s air conditioning isn’t blowing cold air at all (or it tries, then turns warm), you could have a clogged expansion valve, a faulty compressor clutch, a leak, or a malfunctioning fuse in the system.
  • How does my A/C system get a leak? 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 FJ Cruiser’s A/C system — and lets outside moisture get in, which can take a toll on internal A/C components.
  • Why won’t my FJ Cruiser’s A/C cool the vehicle when the car is stopped?  Damaged or worn components in your FJ Cruiser’s electrical or air conditioning system can cause the A/C to only work when the car is moving. You may be dealing with low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.

2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser Transmission Service & Repairs

Your transmission carries power from the engine to the wheels so that you can drive at the speed you desire. Because your transmission is responsible for converting the right amount of power into the right amount of speed, a small transmission issue can put a big dent in your FJ Cruiser’s performance. 2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser transmission problems can show up as shifting delays, grinding when accelerating, the car shaking on the road, or a burning smell or whistling sounds coming from under the hood. If you ignore Toyota FJ Cruiser transmission issues you could see your fuel economy decrease or find that you can't drive your FJ Cruiser at all. Our technicians are trained to service 2014  Toyota FJ Cruiser transmission systems according to vehicle manufacturer recommendations. If you think there’s something wrong with your FJ Cruiser’s transmission, schedule an appointment at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care to help keep your engine running at peak performance.

2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser Transmission Q&A

  • When should I have my FJ Cruiser's transmission fluid checked or exchanged?  Caring for your Toyota FJ 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 FJ Cruiser?  Yes. Toyota FJ Cruiser transmission fluid can leak over time and potentially cause transmission issues. Worn or damaged seals, a loose or damaged transmission pan, a cracked transmission housing, faulty transmission cooler lines, or an overfilled transmission could cause transmission fluid leaks.
  • Can I still drive my Toyota FJ Cruiser if it has a transmission fluid leak?  It’s not advisable to drive your FJ Cruiser if it’s leaking transmission fluid. Your transmission system needs transmission fluid to function properly, and a leak can lead to significant problems, such as overheating or reduced performance. You might even experience transmission failure.

FAQs for 2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser Vehicle Inspections

  • When does my Toyota FJ Cruiser need an inspection? It needs a check-up if something feels 'off' to you, the driver. Your Toyota FJ Cruiser could benefit from a Courtesy Check if it has any illuminated dashboard lights, you hear weird noises coming from any part, the engine doesn't start sometimes, or your vehicle pulls to one side.

  • What's the ideal timing for a full vehicle inspection on my Toyota FJ Cruiser?  The best time to get a complete vehicle inspection for your Toyota FJ Cruiser is before going on a road trip for the peace of mind.

You might notice new dashboard lights, hear strange noises from under the hood, or your steering wheel doesn't feel like it once did.

2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser Radiator Repair & Service

Staying on top of routine radiator maintenance for your 2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser is a huge factor in the longevity of your engine.
