Rear brakes are new. I didn’t see any oil bake there when I changes them out.

That’s what I’m thinking as well. Really pisses me off because I pointed it out to the tech but he said it was normal. I should have stuck to my guns and made them redo the work. I’ve rotated rebalanced the tires with no improvement.

Gotcha. Noise is coming from the front. I feel the vibes in the steering wheel and even in my seat. That’s why I replaced the drive shaft. It came with new non-greasable ujoints.

I replaced the rear brake pads about 2-3 months ago but I don’t remember seeing those. Doesn’t mean they aren’t there, just don’t remember them. If they were seized, how would that cause my issue?

What’s a bell crank? Noise is constant at speed. Hard to notice on city roads but on a stretch of road or highway it’s noticeable at 50+

Trans is good. I replaced the filter and replaced all the fluid via the Tim method about 3 months ago. I failed to mention that there is a slight vibration in the steering when at highway speeds. The wheel doesn’t shake, just vibrates. Taking the car out of drive and shifting into neutral...

I spun the wheels when changing the oil last weekend and they spun freely but there did sound like there was a slight drag. Not a grinding noise or anything but just a slight drag. I inspected the pads and they looked like there was 99% of the pad left. I mean those suckers were thick...

Sorry to hijack thread but I’m new and cont post new thread yet...my truck is a 2001 v6 2wd I replaced my drive shaft and I also have a bzzzz/hum but mine starts at 40-50pmh and gets louder more pronounced the faster I go. I replaced upper ball joints and wheel bearings about 20k miles ago...

Changed the oil with my son this weekend. He’s 13 and there’s been talk of him inheriting my 3rd Gen as his first car. I need to get the vibration issue sorted out first.

I had one of these cell phone boosters installed when I lived in West Texas and I honestly couldn’t tell a difference. The signal boost was negligible at best. The company I worked for paid for it so i wasn’t out anything but it was about $400-500 at the time.

I did this job a couple of years ago and I took the knuckles to the local Toyota dealership in Midland, TX for them to press in the bearings. One side was smooth but the other side was very tight and I had to give it some force to move it. The technician said that it wasn’t a big deal and it...

I am having vibration issues and I thought swapping the drive shaft was the answer but nope. Still having issues. I’m new so I can post a new thread yet but I’ll start a new thread when I’ve made it off probation.

I’m having vibration issues. Mine vibrates slightly but with a loud humming noise. Starts at around 40-50 mph
