Hey there, I'm Cliff. I've got a 2000 Tundra with lotsa stuff done to it and I'm not finished yet. I keep running into little issues with different noises that I've been hearing lately. I've taken it to Toyota and they never seem to figure out what's wrong. I know that I'm not crazy and hearing things so why is it so hard for the guys at my dealership to figure out what's wrong? I would like to meet up with someone in my area that has similar enhancements done. Maybe I can start getting everything fixed that nobody else can without holding on to my truck for a few days.

i hear you loud and clear on this one! I hear a noise when i am at higher speeds 50+ and in some cases at lower speeds and when i accelerate i get a low ticking noise right under my feet! i have it to the dealer, the mechanic, the muffler shop and no one can answer me this one! i was told i have ticking injectors ( which i do have) but there is no way they are as loud as the noise i am hearing!!!!

I have a 2000 Toyota Tundra. Just hit 149,900 miles and started hearing a ticking noise on accelleration. I hear it anytime I accellerate regardless of how long the truck has been running. It is most noticeable between 1400 and 3500 rpm. It seems more severe weh I am doing 70 and accellerate to 75 or 80.

I brought it to Toyota here, they replaced serpentine belt, water pump (both totally unrelated) and of course it still ticks. I brought it back and they can't find the cause. They tested for exhaust leaks and find nothing.

Any suggestions???

Thanks,

Tim

Many have said it's the exhaust manifold. Search a little, there's lots of threads on this subject.

yeah i figured it was an exhaust leak, sounds exactly like that....never did anything about it since i have heard it now for 70k miles, and i have 190k on it now. dont know if its good or bad tho..=)

Exhaust leak:
Used a stethoscope?
Valves adjusted?
Sparkplugs tight?
Have you just...........looked? Could it be something touching under the torque load?
