I notice a difference when using quality fuel from a top tier gas station like Mobil, but on occasion I buy from a non top tier gas station like Racetrack. I use only 87 octane.

Hey guys I’m pretty new around here.
I’ve been noticing what seems like to me is a weird rattling noise at startup when the engine is cold. And even when accelerating. It completely goes away once the engine warms up. To me it sounds like piston slap. But hoping I could get all of your input on it. Hoping to hear where there or not any of you experience this same thing.http://https://youtu.be/QaJfCV0Dtrw

0w-20 is for CAFE. In other parts of the world our engines can use oils up to 20w-50 depending on expected temperatures.

I got hold of the 2015 Australia recommended oils page awhile back. Chart is actually for the FJ.




The Middle East is different still, sorry don't have the chart.
15w-40 down to -12C / 10F
10w-30 down to -18C / 0F
5w-30 for 10C / 50F or LESS

I am currently running 5w-30 with zero issues and will be trying some 5w-40 and 15w-40 down the road a bit.

I have a 2019 4Runner that makes most of the above mentioned sounds, especially when cold.
Years ago, I bought a new 1992 TOYOTA pickup with the inline 4. 22RE?
Started making a noise on startup, eventually threw a timing chain, just out of power train warranty of course. Toyota sprung for half the parts. Soured me on Toyota for awhile.
Bought my brothers 97 4R in 2007 with 100K miles. Daughter drives it now with about 220K on it and has been a good car.
If my 2019 ever has a problem like my 1992 had, I might dump some gas inside, drive it through the dealership front window and throw a match in it. LOL

Thanks for responding man. I really don’t mean to dig deeper into what you’ve already said. But the sounds I’m more so referring to is the rattle that comes around while revving. Which is a more district knock. You bring up a pretty good point about timing chain. So maybe it’ll be something I look into. I’m honestly at the point where I’ll just drive it and not care about the nosies LOOOL

Presumably this is a 'new to you' vehicle, make sure it has the correct grade oil in it, Synthetic 0W20 or 5W30. Maybe it has JiffyLube 10W30 in there? The valvetrain or rocker arms are loud on a cold start but normally not that loud

Normal. THis is my 2nd 1GR engine-equipped vehicle (1st was my 07 Tacoma, which my best friend still owns and has over 250K miles on it). They are just noisy motors, but very reliable.

The clicking noise you hear at low RPM is the fuel injectors. they are solenoid valves that open and close. The clicking to the back seat when closing. If you increase the engine rpm the frequency increases and it is less noticeable. It is also more predominate on cold starts. If this bothers you you can add an upper cylinder lubricant to you Fuel tank. Lucas Amsoil and Redline all make them. Personally I use Marvel Mystery oil in My 2018 Limited. Use 4 ounces per 10 gallons. So 9 ounces per tank. You will notice a difference. You can buy a 1 gallon jug at Walmart for around $18.

I'm running a 30 weight as well and the engine is smooth as butter! Did you ever run a 40 weight?

I've never used Marvel, how does it compare with the Lucas? Running Lucas every fill up, so far so good.

Not yet! 5w-40 is slated for the next change though.
