Pulsing Sound 2016 TRD Offroad

Happy Hump Day All!

So, I have this pulsing sound with vibration in the accelerator pedal between 45-55mph. It almost seems like something is rubbing, but it DOES NOT change tempo with increase or decrease of speeds. I first noticed it a few days after driving off the dealers lot. I thought it was variances in road surface but it is pretty consistent at those speeds.

Thoughts?

 

Lube the drive line??

 

Hi Bob,
Thanks for replying!
I Goggled the driveline and I don't think it is that. Most web pages said there was a shimmy and it could be felt in the seat at low speeds (15-25) with the driveline vibration.
Mine situation is a hum at about the same tempo of a heart beat. I can hear it and feel it in the accelerator.
Guess I'll need to take it to the dealer.

Hey Holly, yes get it documented at the dealer for sure. Welcome to TW

 

Hey Judy!

Yeah I think most who not dealer techs here do not like the dealer lol.

Congrats on your truck

 

Try putting it in 4x4 when it happens. If it goes away then it is a very common issue. Read up on it here : https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/buzzy-vibration-at-certain-rpms-read-before-buying.397620/
