    Hey everyone I have a 2019 TRD OF 4x4 AT with about 4K miles. I've noticed a slight rattle while accelerating on inclines. It usually happens while the gears shift. Has anyone else had this problem?

    Sounds like engine knock. Try higher octane . Mine doesn’t do that.

    Have the same issue. I did notice when using higher octane gas it goes away. I normally put in regular costco gas and I'll hear it every once in a while.
