Occasional Engine Rattle 2024 TRD SPORT 4x4

[jahpahneh]

Anyone else have this rattling sound? It’s been happening since I drove off the lot. Toyota Techs say they can’t hear it and all tests come out fine. Others have told me it sounds like something is loose when I’m driving by.

Let me know what you guys think. Thanks

Sounds like direct injectors to me, normal.

Normal.
It's the injectors.
This motor makes all kinds of noises.

Welcome to the future, where all gas turbo engines now sound like they're knocking themselves to death or ate a cam...

But you can potentially get 25MPG on a sunny day at exactly 72F with zero wind and your tires at precisely 30.00 PSI

It’s the D4S injection system. That noise specifically is it switching between port and direct injection.

Are they normally that loud? Can hear it with windows up.

Time for exhaust and drown out the engine noise. Thanks for the info everyone

Absolutely, insanely high DI PSI means you need a mechanical pump running off the cam. They're pretty much always very noisy.

Diesels also sound the same, for the same reason. You just don't notice it because the rest of the engine is so loud.

Yeah look at your high pressure fuel pump. That sounds like the rattle. They are supposed to make some noise but you could get the Toyota techs to look at it
