2016 Engine Knocking Noise

Hello tacoma world. I just purchased a 2016 SR5 with 53k miles on it about 3 weeks ago. Noticed this knocking noise coming from the passenger side of the engine. I’ve changed the oil and brought it to the dealership concerning the noise and they said it was the fuel injectors (like every other thread i’ve read on here). The knocking seems to get much louder after driving it for a while and I can hear it in the cab with all the windows rolled up. I know these 3.5’s are loud but this noise seems pretty concerning. If anyone has any info about this please let me know!

Seems normal to me

 

Sweet! Thanks for the quick response

 

Welcome to the forum

Mine makes the same type of noise on the passenger side, it did it when I got it at 12,000 miles and hasn't changed in the 35,000 miles I put on it so I don't worry about it. Both the dealer and the forum said it was normal.

This is both the noisiest and most expensive engine I have ever had, I have had $100 cars that were quieter.

If anybody asks say you have a prototype Tacoma diesel.

 

Lmaoo This makes me feel so much better. Thanks man!
