Driveline click or clunk after moving 10 feet ?

Hi all.

Firstly ... Love my new taco !!
2012 Access cab, 4X4, V6, AT, Nautical Blue - 2 weeks old, 280 km on the clock.

A question to all the taco owners in here, if I may.

I noticed a click or light clunk coming from under my truck when I move approx. 10 feet in drive (in 2HI) :
- There is no vibration with this noise whatsoever
- This noise is only heard after the transmission has been in park
(the noise doesn't happen when I stop, go, stop and select neutral, stop and reverse then move forward in drive - only after selecting park)
- I suspect the noise is from the transmission because of the point above
- The 4 wheel drive and electronic driveline systems work perfectly
- The truck drives and operates like a dream

I haven't checked for the noise in 4HI because the truck will be in 2HI the vast majority of the time.
I will be talking to my dealer service dept. as well.

This is probably normal but I would like some feedback to alleviate my concerns.

Thanks Guys.

Cheers
Ray.

 

my 06 has done that since day one. Mine usually does it after i stop at a red light or when i start rolling. Common thing across the boards.

 

Yep, mine does it too. Always wondered what it was. Have heard similar things from other folks too so I guess it's normal.

 

ABS system check.

 

Hi all.

Thanks for the responses - I figured it was normal.

I talked to my dealer today. They assured me this is a completely normal sound from my truck. I started talking to the service department when the business manager came by and told me it was completely normal.

So although I got no answer as to exactly what it is that makes the noise, I do feel better.

Hi Split.

Can you elaborate ?

Normal aside, my inquiring mind still wants to know what is the source of the noise.

Thanks.

Cheers
