Thanks for the thoughts, I'm leaning toward the idea that it's electrical somewhere as well. I haven't found anything that has stood out unfortunately. The shuddering has yet again subsided, and possibly gone all together but I'm not ready to say that for sure until I go a week or so without...

Thanks the thoughts. I will check out the drive train seals and see if I can spot something. I haven't tried putting it in neutral while it's doing it, it doesn't last for long so it'll be tough to try but I will give it a shot. I can say it seems to go away the moment I let off the gas if that...

LOL I will try to find a big enough zip lock! No codes or lights, I appreciate the info though. I will read some of their threads and see if anything seems the same. Also doesn't seem like a misfire, but I admittedly have never felt a misfire so I suppose it could be! I wouldn't think it's...

About 6 months ago I thought I had the transmission shudder problem that has been well documented in this thread . I added the shudder fixx and a few days later everything seemed to be fine, no more shuddering. Problem Solved! Or so I thought.... Yesterday I went through an automatic car wash...

I'm fairly positive this is your problem http://www.toyota-4runner.org/problems-warranty-issues/11936-nasty-sound-right-turn.html Wipe down and grease the two points a couple times a year and everything will be quiet. Scared the crap out of me the first time I heard it but ever since greasing...

Do you have all the air vents completely open? It may seem obvious but wanted to throw it out there. I know my fan is considerably louder when a couple vents are shut off or more closed, which happens often after my wife rides in it. I'd even check the rear vents, especially if you were moving...

Just wanted throw my hat in the "shudder fixx fixed the issue" group. Really glad I came across this thread. Took about 40 miles of driving for it to fully take effect, but can't beat the results for $6. How has everyone's truck held up after using it? Is this something I will continually have...

My problem was the wheel bearing as some others suggested. Replaced it and it's been quiet ever since!

Awesome. At least I can take this to my mechanic with some sort of idea! I appreciate all the input guys!

Your guess is as good as mine, again I'm not familiar enough with these things to know how they would affect things. My best theory is maybe I have a power steering line that was touching something in the engine compartment, I've heard that can cause these things things. Do you notice if your...

I have done quite a bit of searching around this forum and have finally just decided to post. I have an '07 SR5 with 130k that I've had for about a year and it has a slight buzzing in the steering wheel... I wouldn't call it a vibration but more like a "tickle" (the wheel doesn't feel like it is...
