    I certainly don't have that noise on startup with my 2015. It's an SR package and I have 1200 miles on it.

    That sucks man, that's the exact noise that my '13 Tacoma had that caused Toyota to buy it back. I lemon lawed it and I now have a '14 in replacement. I was told that there was a run of bad oil pumps that caused that, not sure that I buy it. I had a new oil pump and later a whole new short block and it actually got worse.

    Can't say my '15 SR5 makes that noise. It does make the traditional Toyota clicking sound. But your noise sounds more metallic and louder.

    Just an FYI. The "Gen 3" trucks will be the 2016 models and newer. They won't be out until late 2015.

    Burghier, I dealt with Bob Massey in Irwin. My '14 has that noise very faintly if you knew what to listen for. No one else would notice. Now my '14 has a howling rear differential that Toyota says is normal yet they had a TSB out for it from '08-'13.
