    newbie from ID. 2012 Taco TRD Dblcab; 33K JUST started experiencing the vibration I have Now read so much about. About 7 wks ago needed to get new tires. The day I got them I started to feel vibration on backside of driver's seat and on console arm rest, at varying speeds (slow, to Hwy speeds). Turned out 1 tire was out around. Tire dealer replaced it & rebalanced all tires; vibration continued. Long story short: tire dealer rebalance & rotated tires several times and then switched me to another set of tires which has now been rebalanced a couple times. Went to my Toyota dealer a couple days ago,and had front differential bearing replaced (needle roll bearing, IMG_0889.jpg cotter pin, drive shaft ring & type T seal). Mild vibration in steering wheel disappeared but still vibration at roughly 27, 37, 45-37, 57-62. Dealer has been working well with me and referenced the TSB related to vibration. Waiting for snow packed roads to clear then we're going to start the re-do process in the rear end. Very much appreciated seeing others' comments about vibration, including some of the solutions (or partial solutions). Disappointed in this new issue, as the truck has worked flawlessly since May, 2012, including pulling our 18' camper. Will post any solutions that arise for others who are experiencing the vibration.

    Welcome to TW. Good looking truck. Sucks about the vibes. Don't forget to check the u-joints. Only time I got an unusual vibe was when my ujoint was ready to go. Non-greasable ujoint (Prerunner) and all the factory grease was shot and rollers were dust.

    Thx so much for the suggestion!! Will absolutely mention this first when I get it back to the dealer. Nice to hear of hopefully a 'single solution' rather than a whole list of trial and error things. Merry Christmas.
