    ok so first of i have a 2001 stock tacoma..now i put at least 250 miles a day on it.. so now noise number 1 when i first bought the truck the front driver side would make a loud "pop" noise when i was turning or going into driveways at certain angles..now what could that be?
    noise number 2...i hear a ticking noise coming from the engine at idle...its not LOUD but i can hear it
    noise 3...its like a whirring noise comming from underneath the truck so im assuimg the transmission

    im sorry if this seems vauge but im not a mechanic and thats the best way i could think of describing them..so my question would be what should it cost to get all of those fixed?

    Got the gas mileage down to 13mpg! Modification complete
    Don't know about sound number 1 but 2 and three are normal. The ticking your hearing is probably a lifter...try a little heavier oil...or just check your oil level. Judging from the miles you put on it, it's gonna make a few noises:)
