Roaring in the left front area.

I can feel in my steering wheel and I can hear it. I feel it at speeds up to 50mhp. I feel it in the wheel left front area. I was like this when I drove it home from the dealership with the stock wheels. I have over size wheels with a 3" lift and it's continuing to do this. I can feel what I would say is a rub as the tires rotating while driving. It's not rubbing at all. It done this brand new. A mechanic at the dealership said Toyota knows about this issue, but hasn't done anything about it. He said it's a bearing. I can't remember if he said transfer case or transmission, maybe the axle itself. The truck has 9200 miles. What could it be. I guess it will have to go to the dealer and have them say we can't find anything.

 

video, recording, pic, something please?

 

Sounds like the needle bearing front axel, drivers side. Put it in 4WD, and if it goes away it's the needle bearing.

 

It's not a loud enough noise to hear it. It's mostly the feel in the wheel as the tires rotate while driving. I am more sensitive to it since I drive it. Just on the left side. My son -n- law said he could feel it as we drove down the road. It's there just can't figure what.

 

Yeah it seems to go away in 4 wheel drive.

 

Bingo... needle bearing. There is TSB for it, or you can go with ECGS clam shell bearing.

 

Should have replaced it when you did the lift. Pretty common.

 

Yeah. Your right. I was hoping it would go away. We will get it fixed. Would I ask the dealer about the TSB

 

with a 3" lift kit u installed they have the option not to warranty the fix, only aftermarket parts that they will recognize are the Toyota TRD parts all others are up to their discretion

 

Where would I get the TSB so I'll have it when I take in for it's first oil change on Friday the 8th of November. Thanks

 

Warranty denied. Lifted lol
