    I've recently noticed a noise in my 2009 SR5 automatic when I'm coasting. I can only describe it as if the engine is winding down or in a hill assist mode (don't have option on truck). My RPM's are fine and I don't feel a lag at any time. I have 58,000 miles and have not serviced the tranny or diffs. Any thoughts?

    Air intake whirl is what I notice when decelerating. Nothing wrong with it.

    Might be feeling this ? did you recently have the battery disconnected ?
    ENGINE BREAKING and harsh downshifting .
    For you guys with higher mileage ....Read this http://www.sonnax.com/parts/1778
    Page 33 and 34 of this PDF explains downshifting
    http://www.toyotatundraforum.com/pdf/A750E.pdf
    Are you effected by the TSB ? http://www.pdf-archive.com/2012/01/0...sb-0373-09.pdf
    beleive it or not , your truck is designed to save fuel when coasting . When you take your foot off the gas , the PCM tells the injectors to turn off . This is why your truck feels like its slowing down in comparison to older vehicles you have owned . Combine this with the converter remaining locked up and the transmission downshifting while going down hills can really be felt in the drivers seat .
