    Toyota already replaced diff, same noise, they it's a known problem, I drove several other new 2014 and they had the same whine when you let off the gas around 90 km/hr, go 120 km/hr and let off the gas no whine till 90km,apparently pinion gear meshing noise, no solutions from Toyota, that sucks! just venting.

    Mine does this as well. 2012 with 80k miles, let off and it whines. I am starting to think its a u joint but I am still not sure if it's the diff. I will know for sure when I swap diffs.
