Nocking Noise at Idle - Video

[EEEliminator]

I have this knocking noise at idle, I was wondering if anyone else has this and if its is just a characteristic of the 4.0L. I don't notice the sound when driving or under load. If I put it in gear stand on the brake and give it throttle it doesn't get any worse. I put a video up on youtube to capture the sound, there isn't much to look at since its dark and I'm moving the phone around the engine bay.

Let me know if you guys think this is normal or what you think it could be. I searched the forum and just found the drumming sound suspected to be the fuel line, I don't think that is what this is.

Can't figure out how to get the embed to work...

Edit: Looks like its working, just not on the preview post.

I have a 2015 Trail with 2,200 miles and sounds like yours. I believe its the sound characteristics of the 4.0l Toyota V6.

Very normal for the 1grfe. It wanted to be a diesel, so it tries to sound like one at idle.

Thanks everyone for the reassurance, I hadn't noticed it until it was pointed out to me recently. I forgot to mention I'm at 65k miles too, so I don't mind the sound now :thumb:

Should hear the 2GR-FKS, thinks it's a diesel too!
