Shades those that think an alternator swap is a 5 minute job and swaps it in 90 seconds 😂😂😂 kidding. If only the process truly went that quickly 😂

These Tacos aren't too bad I've unfortunately dealt with much worse but I agree it's frustrating when you have a lot of ford chevy and dodge trucks that take 5 minutes to change out

2018 Tacoma, at idle rpms go from 500 to 1k when turning steering wheel stft goes from about 2% down to -20% no obvious vacuum leaks when the rpm fluctuation occurs I hear a puffing sound around intake area, p0171 has set in the past but no active codes right now, and obviously when there’s another load on the engine like a/c it does it more often, do you think 500 to 1K is excessive? Also maf and tbody has been cleaned and relearned
