    Please help guys!

    New Tacoma owner! just purchased my dream truck, a 21 trd off road 4X4 with 60K Miles. Driven it about 500 miles and noticed a bouncing/vibration at around 40+. It’s mostly in passenger side I gather, I feel the vibration through the gas pedal as well. Additionally, at high speeds while accelerating I hear a high pitch noise coming from the rear of the truck. (Link to YouTube video below volume UP) when I let go of the gas, noise goes away.

    does anyone have any idea what could this be? I am thinking a bering or the differential.

    Get used to all kinds of noises and quirks buddy. I’m still having a hard time getting used to all this stuff after 7 years of owning 3rd gen tacomas

    It’s so strange, a few years ago my job gave me a 2017 tacoma to drive for work and it made none of those noises or vibrations. My 21 Trd is still under warranty and I intend to be a pain in the ass until they find/fix something. I understand it’s a truck and it will ride much different than my previous car but I think both the noise and the vibrations are extreme enough that constitutes further investigation.

    I appreciate the feed back!

    Rotate tires F-R and see if vibration moves.

    If yes, suspect tire balance.
