    Truck is making weird noise when I try to put it in 4Hi. I think I may have a lemon on my hands. Anyone have any ideas on what it might be?

    Can't trust the dealership to figure this one out for you. They might over tighten your oil filter & drain bolt if you took it in, glad you came to Tacoma World first.
    My suggestion is, check the sun visor, sometimes those get a little squeaky.

    This generation of the truck really is just the worse. There's a super loud scream noise whenever I'm driving 40 to 60 MPH with the windows down. The design is just awful and the engineers have no idea what they were doing...


    Anybody have a rear driver's side passenger seatbelt delete kit?
    :D




    Happy Friday.

    I get screams and loud gasps around 70mph, also the "why dont you park there?!?" warning is super annoying, wish I could turn that one off.

    The only good thing about the Element was those "I like to peench" crab commercials.
    No, that things too quirky for Carvana. It needs to go up on Cars and Bids.

    My '17 DCLB has 64k miles and has never has been part of a recall let alone anything other than the door seal rust (fixed by Toyota for $0 :eek:). We have a '16 4Runner with 108k on the clock that runs like a watch, not a smooth watch, but it works every time. 4Runner > Taco fit and finish, but the drivetrains feel the same in 2wd and 4wd. Nothing body on frame with a transfer case will be as smooth as awd/unibody. My '09 Matrix awd was smooth af. I hated my first truck (Tundra 5.7) after the first winter. Now I wish the OR and Pro Tacos came with a manual case like the 4runners. I do have a clunk when I'm coasting on a slight up hill grade and it downshifts into first gear. Never thought anything of it... until now... Feeling cute, might call a lawyer.. might delete, idk.

    Back to your dumpster fire...
