Just to add another datapoint...
My 2010 had an engine whine at 83k miles when I purchased it. Whine occurs both when in park and in drive and is more noticable from 2500 to 4000 RPM's. I replaced the three idler pulleys at 120k miles when I did spark plugs, but not the tensioner/pulley. There has been absolutely no change in the sound since the day I bought it and I just rolled 130k miles.

Still nothing new for me...if anything it may have gotten a bit louder.
I was hoping a fresh oil change and new filter would maybe stop it or quiet it down, but nothing.
I used OEM filters on my first 2 oil changes, after that I've been using the Wix filters from O'riellys . I guess with all the headache this noise is giving me it'd be worth trying an OEM filter again.

@ LaO_T4R
I actually just did this under warranty for a customer at about 55k. It was a cam gear. Toyota had us replace basically everything behind the timing cover. it was something like $4500 all said and done. Customer left pretty happy.
He came in with the same concern about a whine at about 1500rpm and the noise was still there when we took the belt off to eliminate some things.

Interesting, that's the first I heard of it being a cam gear. I may bring this up to the guys at Toyota. Thanks for the feedback.

Mine at 51k sounds exactly like that video. If it's not consuming oil, there is no change in performance, and there is no CEL it doesn't bother me. Best to listen to loud music for a week or so until you forget about the noise. Noise obsession can be the death of you if you're not careful. And this is coming from the guy who it famous with his wife for turning off the music and saying "did you hear that!?"

I get inventory in every month that do this exact sound.
My '13 does it and it annoys the crap out of me. My wife's '10 doesn't do it at all.
I replaced alternator, all tensioners and idlers, and as of this morning did the Nomad valve body (not to eliminate sound, because it's awesome and I wanted it), transmission fluid flush.
ZERO noise change.

I did replace all 3 idlers a little while ago as I found 2 of them to have some play. No change after doing that.
I have no clue what it is but it certainly does seem to be normal from what I read.

Mine's still chugging along at 110k with no changes in the noise or issues. I just did a 700 mile loop in it last week through upstate NY and VT. I have learned to just ignore it at this point.

Yeah, mine makes the same noise. I've read it had something to do with the oil filter, which is crazy to me.

Mine has the same noise, started around 55K and I am currently at 125K. It does not seem to change as the miles keep going on. I tried to chase it down for a year or so and then gave up. Wish I knew for sure what it was!

Needs this recalled
Mine has the same whine, taken to three mechanics all cannot find the whine. They say it’s coming from driver side inside engine. Sounds like Toyota needs do TSB or even better a recall. I’ll wait it out

My 2013 developed the whine at 54k. Initially got the run around from my local dealer who eventually replaced a couple of pulleys but did not resolve the problem. Replaced alternator, still there and then called Toyota. Took it to another dealer and had their "best" mechanic take a look and he was advised that it could be timing chain assembly or oil pump. They ripped it apart and the mechanic said it was the oil pump. No more whine and 3,200$ repair was covered under my extended warranty

I replaced a trans for a similar noise after chasing pulleys just earlier this week.

Wow, vacuum hose? How about a stethescope, Mr. Technician.
Did anything ever come of this, or get resolved for you, OP? I was in service at Lexus for 5 years and quit because dealers are absolutely awful. No one truly cares about your car, and no one seems to truly be intelligent on the matter, either. Still working in Independants these days. Interested in hearing if this got cleared up for you.

FWIW - My wife's Lexus ES350 does exactly the same whine under load. I wrote it off as the nature of this engine series.
