First real problem encountered ugh!!

Its weird out of the blue on highway it started... Never had any issues whatsoever with noises

 

Only happens 40mph and over as well

 

OP...Looks like you are driving in a very cold environment. My '97 speedo cable sounds like that until it warms up from being frozen.

Edit, but your truck is more than likely fly by wire.

 

Check for a plastic bag someplace under the front of the truck. I have picked one up before on another vehicle and it made a noise like that. Could be hard to see if it got blown up in someplace.

 

This is a good suggestion.

It does seem wind related because its tied to speed and not so much what the powertrain is doing.

Are you getting any kind of shake/vibration or is it only the noise?

 

That is kind of strange, hard to pinpoint where that is coming from, very interested in what the Dealer finds.

 

I just crawled under truck, i cant find anything no bags or other debris... no shaking or vibrations.

 

Park it and have the engine on while you go around the car have somebody reeve the engine slowly and see where is coming from.
If no problems then, is drive shaft, tranny or dif.

 

Click it or ticket!

 

Check the exhaust heat shields. If one is loose it might look like it's where it's supposed to be stopped but the wind might cause it to rattling on something.

 

You said it was coming from the front, and no vibration, so have you checked the skidplate? Also 2nd checking the exhaust heat shield suggestion above.

 

Appointment made for today at 11:45 bristol toyota in swansea MA...

 

Sounds like that #turdgenlife. Seriously though it is reminiscent of the kazoo noise from weather stripping though not quite the same.

 

Let us know how it goes. Hopefully its something simple.

 

i wonder if it could be a wheel bearing?

 

just throwing stuff out there

 

Might be your seat belt!

 

What came of the appointment, did they find the problem?

 

It's hard to tell because the sound doesn't translate well but my first thought was it sounded like a bearing too. I was thinking pulley bearing but if it's tied to speed not revs...
