    Trd cold air intake and oil and radiator caps. 2657516 bfg ko2s. Bak revolver 2 tonneau cover, bed mat and extender. Mud flaps. Husky liner floor mats. Locking tail gate. Led bed lights. Carbon black tailgate Tacoma insert. Red Tacoma dash insert. Winco Infrared reducing window tint. Predator steps.
    Love truck, but anyone found fix for wind whine/howling at 35-40? Worse on windy days. Makes driving truck with window down unbearable. Has gotten worse with time also.

    Only issue with truck as it has been great otherwise.

    I have intermittently had the same issue. I have seen Taco Bella has posted that he has the issue as well. For whatever reason I'm not getting it every time I drive it. Not sure if it's something to do with the grill aerodynamics? I only have 350 miles on mine so far.....so haven't nailed down what causes it.

    I have some slight wind noise coming from the mirror, but its very minor on my truck and not a big deal. My 2010 4Runner was louder. I would make sure it is in fact wind noise, some people have complained of some type of mechanical noise at certain speeds and RPM`s. There was a pretty active thread about this, it should be easy to find.

    There are multiple threads on this. You have to take it to the dealer and open a service ticket. Mny of us have. Toyota will not correct that without a lot of complaints,

    THIS is the sound we are getting

    A few of us have taped up the truck, bagged the mirrors, removed the air dam, Nothing has solved this issue. It is annoying at the least,
