Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I'm the owner of a 2003 toyota tundra (limited slip differential) sr5 4x4. in apr i brought my truck into the universal toyota dealer here in san antonio tx to replace a missing clamp and for a rumbling noise coming from underneath the truck. the first mechanic said he couldn't hear the noise, and again i brought the truck back in jun as the noise was getting worse. the lead mechanic then heard it and said that the noise is coming from the differential and that he has another tundra doing the same thing. i asked that he call the toyota tech line to inquire/report this. he notified me the next day that the toyota tech person said that this is a normal sound and not to worry about it. however i do have some safety concerns as i don't believe this to be a "normal" indication of what a differential should sound like. *jb |
