    So, a few months back I bought a slightly used '11 trd sport, (45,000Kms)
    Chatting with the service tech at a local dealer, she was very pleasent, I explained I was doing some research on fourum sites and came up with a list of things to check on the truck, starting with the blower motor. I followed it up by suggesting I have been contacting the bump stops with a motorcycle in the back, I also have a rattle from the passanger airbag area (empty glove box) and commented on the shudder on acceleration, and some bubbling on the aluminum rims.
    Curious if they will change anything at all besides the blower motor. With the warranty expiring in the near future curious to see what I can get done.


    Thoughts?
    Did I miss any common fixes?

    rear tsb for the bumpstomps
    the rattle by the glovebox area, if its the same thing i had/ i just punched the dash really hard and it stopped, seriously lol.

    and im not sure what you mean by shudder on acceleration, only thing i can think of is the air compressor when your stopped at a light that makes your truck jerk
