    No I am just telling you that it is getting a little as I drive it.

    The 2018 TRD Sport I bought was terrible and kept it 4 weeks and got the PRO

    Yea I'm trying to figure out if mine is getting better or am I just noticing it less? I think it's a little better now, I'm up over 8k miles.

    I bought a half a yard of dirt, 5 times and with the load the vibration was zero. So to me that pushed the bed down and the driveshaft more level. I think the shims I bought might fix the vibration by pushing down the driveshaft

    Good news for you! What caused you to trade out of the TRD Sport?

    The TRD Sport 4x4 suspension was so bouncy that it felt out of control on the same highway section as compared to the 2013 TRD Sport 2x4 that I had. The vibration in the driveline was severe. I took it to the dealer, Grapevine, Tx and they would not touch it because they said they all do that. I said BS. I drove the PRO and much less vibration and traded it in while it was still in the Service Dept.

    Are you still getting vibration in the gas pedal under load in the PRO?

    Yes. It is not really in the gas pedal, maybe a little, it is in the whole body, steering wheel, like a driveshaft feel. But I know what you are saying. If I was not driving, I would not feel it as bad.

    Under a heavy load, I don't feel anything.

    So the engine already had carbon buildup since I drove my Tacoma off the lot with 50 miles on the odometer?

    I have a 2019 trd off road 2wd and just had 2.5 spacers installed in the front and 1.5 in the rear and at slow speed or braking has a bad vibration that wasn’t there before , do you guys think it is the needle bearing that needs to be replaced with a bushing or what? It is driving me crazy!

    So after buying my truck I was having the vibration problem. Took it to Toyota and they said my front rotors where out of spec, and they replaced them under warranty.

    Now I'm having the same problem again and even sometimes when breaking I get a lunging thump every so often.

    Took it back to Toyota today for another inspection and their answer again was my front rotors and they said they will replace them again pro bono. I told the guy I never had this problem on my wife's car, my old 4Runner, or my 2nd gen Tacoma. He said it was luck of the draw and my driving pattern.

    I'm getting pretty annoyed, and I'm upset I spent money on a brand new truck and am having this problem that Toyota is pretty much telling me its happening because how I drive.

    Sorry for any grammatical errors, I'm angry typing on mobile.

    Also, just to note, I just hit 30k

    I worked on cars and for twenty + years. I believe the problems is in the transmission. It shudder and vibrates slightly. page 631 of my owner manual 2018 warns of the tranny could vibrate. Toyota already know the deal. they said it happen only with unapproved tranny fliud apparently not the case.

    A buddies 2019 trd or has minor oscillating vibrations since new. It became way worse when he did a 3'' lift and larger tires. Ended up putting it back to stock early this spring. Those minor vibrations are still present but far less noticeable. Toyota told him his truck is perfectly normal, just the nature of what it is. Imo, once you have a vibration, best that can be hoped for is it doesn't get worse. Never had a vibration as such get better on its own.

    your vibration must of have been pretty bad.. Mines vibration is not enough to be buying it back. Maybe a lawyer might needed if it gets worse right know it's tolerable. I 'm glad it worked out for you.
