Random knock from engine

[rich1217]

I’ve got a 2024 Tacoma SR5 and it makes a knocking noise at times. I’m going to make an appointment to get it serviced but now I’m just curious. The truck has about 2000 miles and has been doing it since I bought it in November. It doesn’t do it if the truck is idling in park, in fact if I stop and it starts making the noise and I shift to park it stops. It does it while accelerating sometimes and while stopped

Sounds like something is loose and the RPMs are just right to make it rattle. Doesn't sound like engine knocking to me. These engines are noisy and the injectors make a similar noise but I'm not sure that's it.

I'd mention it when you bring it in. Seems fairly consistent and easy to recreate.

Sounds like some kind of interior rattle. Those can be a PITA to track down.
