    Brought my 2013 that I just purchase in to the dealership for wheel bearings now they are saying that there is still a noise. And want to replace my front diff. All is covered under warranty no cost to me. Should I let them do it?

    :eek: Not sure if serious question.

    But if it is, be sure to get under at home and mark the existing unit. Marks with a center punch in a few places is a good way, rather than paint or something removable.

    This will let you check post work to see if it really happened.

    They put one in my 2011 at about 20K for a noise. I can tell you this, it will be a Toyota factory reman it will be painted black with red RTV sealant but don't panic the new one has been in mine for a good 90K.

    Don’t stress it dude. I’ve had a few warranty things done, truck will be good as new.
