Did I get a Lemon?

So what happened @smta ?

 

He bought a lemon.

 

Hope he made lemonade with that shit, been a while

 

Technically he waited on Toyotacare to make the lemonade on his behalf.

 

Internet priveledge taken away because school started.

 

One of the 50+ year olds he was making fun of last month took him out.

 

Still reading through the thread..tried to PM you but couldn't. I'm in MA as well and curious where you are located, my local dealer has always been good

 

In my saga that was my 2006 Chevy Colorado puking the head, one dealership refused to fix it under warranty claiming they lose money on the hourly rate and markup on parts, but was happy to do it if I paid in full and then take it up with corporate.

 

This actually happened on my 1997 Olds Achieva, Quad 4. The tensioner went and was knocking.

 

My 2021 2.7 makes the same noise. Only makes it after warmed up running for a few minutes.
It seems to be at the same frequency as the engine rpm at 700 rpm.
I changed the motor oil and it got a lot quieter but did not go away. I disagree with smta and think that
the noise increases with engine rpm but does get quieter.
This is my first post and I will try to upload a wav file of the noise.
I will be interested to see what happens with smta.
The wav will have to be zipped. Sorry! I don't know the phone file type.
