    2012 Tacoma DC TRD OffRoad
    Hello,
    Tacoma 2012, DC off-road, auto. When I put the shift on any gear while at stop I hear a slight whining, humming, I don't know how to explain it, it's like a bad bearing or something. It's more noticeable in the garage or in closed area. When put the transmission on park or neutral it goes away. Any of you guys noticed something like that?
    If you have one like mine, role down the window or open the door, put the shifter on D or R and listen carefully.
    I just want to know if it s normal.
    I will take it to be dealer but of course as usual they will say it's normal

    If it weren't for the transmission changes I'd have your answer. Hooker in the truck. bound and duck taped. Seen it time and again. Whine, hum, little kick. Louder (and more awkward) in garages for sure.

    Anything on the serp belt only engage when its in gear?? Nothing I can think of. Truck still under warranty? I'd take it in to be diagnosed and fixed for free, or fit it at home if its not covered.

    I would be inclined to wonder about the alternator.

    I know the Tacoma engine sounds like my dads old Benz 240D for sure lol.
    But this one seems that it's coming from underneath. I put the car on D with the E brake on and went down I can hear it from around the transmission but couldn't pin point it.
    I have 35K on it and it's sitting most of time in the garage I bearly drive it. Never towed anything thing with it or even went off-roading ...... well yet

    I have an extended warranty. I wanted to listen to another Tacoma and see if it wasn't normal before I go to the dealer.

    Yep, and thought I had a problem. Then I listened very very carefully and realized that the whining knoise was just reverb from the 3rd gen forum.
