    2013 SR5 4 wheel drive -when going over imperfections on pavement and when off road the front end sounds like a 20 year old truck just does not sound right. have had toyota and an independent dealer look at this and nobody can find anything wrong.
    Has anybody had this issue-don't know if it is the shocks or springs or something else.

    it is difficult to explain more or less like rattles -sometimes going over speedbumps in the neighborhood more when going over several small bumps.
    only heard going slowly but it may be there at speed but not as noticeable
    Thank everyone trying to assist.

    Go over a bump with your brakes slightly on. See if it still rattles.
