    I noticed a squeak like that when I was installing the wiring in my 2019. I traced it down to the where the front fender bolts to the headlight assembly. A slight turn of the bolt and the squeak went away. An odd thing, but not a huge item to fix.

    You're welcome. I didn't find that I needed to tighten the bolt very much at all.

    Kings, 275/70/17, a few custom items, lots of Meso mods.
    A lot of work you put in that. It's one of a kind and turned out awesome. Great attention to detail on everything. :hattip:

    Had a PT Cruiser that i got when my grandpa passed. It did a similar thing and it ended up needing a computer and some sort of sensor. The computer was sensing faulty signals ro the MAF sensor i think

    Just a little Downey in some water in a spray bottle. Spray it on the the hairy area and let it sit 5-10 minutes. The hair will wipe up with a rubber glove.

    I even have dog hair in a car my dogs have literally never been in. All the dog hair in the Tacoma drives me nuts. Vacum it for an hour or two and still cannot even come close to getting it all.

    Going to give this a shot.

    Was the AC clutch kicking on and off? Turn off the AC and try that again if so. I did not here a thing.

    The tube has nothing to do with the air filter, it replaced the plastic accordion tube after the MAF sensor. It is my understanding that it improves air flow which cant be a bad thing.

    You said "Would there be any issues eliminating the big black box connected to the OEM intake tube?" What big black box are you talking about?

    The one on the tube you can see between the airbox and the engine cover. Just a sound suppressor, I believe. Not there on the 2.7.

    Okay, got ya. No idea on that one. As is in my signature, you have to know how something works before you can fix it, or in this case modify it. I have no idea why or how it works. I will tell you that those folks say it will not effect MAF/TPS signals to the ECU. I don't think it will help much. Entire cold air intakes don't provide that much benefit for the money. I'd just change the air filter every other oil change.
