About 2013 Toyota Land Cruiser Tires

Other than getting the proper tire size, there are a couple of other factors to consider when buying Toyota Land Cruiser tires like which tire brands you like most and where you drive. 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. Drivers in states that fully experience all four seasons often buy two sets of tires: one for winter and one for summer. 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 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. Talk to a tire technician at Firestone Complete Auto Care for help choosing the best tire for you, or start shopping for Toyota Land Cruiser tires online.

  • Can I check the tread depth on my Toyota tires at home? Stay on top of your tire tread depth to help avoid a dangerous drive. You can check tread depth with a penny.

  • What is the average lifespan of a car battery?  A car battery normally lasts three to five years, but this number can vary based on battery type, your driving habits, and battery maintenance.
  • Why is there white, flaky stuff around my Land Cruiser’s battery post?  The white, flaky stuff that can build up around your Land Cruiser’s battery terminals is known as corrosion. Acid leaking from your vehicle’s battery post can have a chemical reaction with the air, leading to an accumulation of the white, powdery substance over time.

If left unaddressed for long enough, it may even cause your battery to prematurely fail.

2013 Toyota Land Cruiser Oil Change Questions

  • What does it mean if my Toyota Land Cruiser oil light comes on?  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?  First off, changing your own oil isn’t as easy as you’d think. You’ll have to buy special tools and figure out a way to recycle the old oil properly. Getting a professional oil change reduces the risk of something going wrong during the service, but also helps your car perform down the road.

Common Engine Tune-Up Q&A for 2013 Toyota Land Cruiser

  • When should Toyota Land Cruiser spark plugs be replaced?  Replace spark plugs on time or about every 30,000 miles or so. Spark plugs are small but mighty. The spark of electricity that the plug emits across a small gap creates the ignition for the combustion needed to start your car. Without that spark, your car won't start.

During the first few years you had your 2013 Toyota Land Cruiser, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced.

2013 Toyota Land Cruiser Steering & Suspension Questions

  • Why is my Toyota Land Cruiser bouncing 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 Land 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.
  • What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in 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.

  • Can transmission fluid leak from my Toyota Land Cruiser?  Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Toyota Land Cruiser, potentially causing transmission problems.

  • 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.
