Well, hello all. I'm having an issue and hope someone can help with this. First off absolutely love this truck. I bought it 10yrs ago used with less than 30k on it. Having an issue now, my ABS, Check engine, and 4lo (flashing) lights came on. Just had all plugs and coil packs done. Still getting a Po357 code. This happened about a year ago as well but I found a thread on here that said it could have just been a speed sensor behind the wheel. My mechanic is suggesting that I bring it to the a dealership to have them check it . I just want to see if anyone here has had the same issue b4 I go and end up getting raped by the dealership. Any help will be greatly appreciated!

See the search box just above your thread? Its the one that says Search Community. Type in the code there and hit enter. See if any of the existing threads start to point you to what others may have done to fix their issues. I will give you a heads up though. Sadly there are a lot of dead end threads. People come on with a problem but dont always come back with the cause.
If any do help, or you find the solution, please post back how you make out.

Also check the alternator. My 2013 was doing this, but also going completely dead at random times (about 2 months apart). At autozone, the alternator checked out good. It completely died 4 times over 8 months. While repeatedly checking my alternator over a weeks period of time, I found that at some points it would only put out 11.5 volts instead of the 14 and change. I changed the alternator a year ago and have not had the problem since.

Also check your battery terminals for corrosion and clean them up. I have seen that this is a common issue with any electrical problem. One guy changed his brake switch at the pedal, another guy just had brake pads that were worn way down and it had something to do with the abs switch/sensor. He did not replace the sensor, just his brakes and it went away.

Sounds exactly what I have experience TWICE in the last 18 years on my '07.
And both times it was the wheel speed sensor that controls the anti-brakes. The second time instead of paying about $85 from RockAuto.com I went to Amazon and got the same sensor for $18.99 and it's been working great for 1 year now.

If you have a AutoZone near you have them put their EXECLENT Scanner tool on your truck. It not only read my problem this last time for FREE but also printed out a detailed report for me.

It's really easy do it yourself job if you have any mechanical skills whatsoever. Remove tire where the scanner said is bad. One 10mm bolt holds the sensor in place plus one wire connect to it via a clip.

HOWEVER, depending on your location, I live in the Rustbelt and everything here is a chore because of rust it might be a chore to remove the old sensor. YouTube is your friend on this.

I had all of that minus the four low since I have a two-wheel drive 2013 4.6 l it end up being the secondary exhaust system Left Bank and right Bank the control module for each one which ended up being like 500 and some change for each module and I didn't get charged too much later. It kept putting the truck into limp mode so I thought it was a transmission issue but used Toyotas dial back via the transmission apparently whenever there's other issues going on I guess depending on the issue or part
