  1. My 2016 went in today for the same issue. They replaced the vacume pump and it fixed it. I also no longer have a loud ticking noise under the hood.
  2. The stock shocks don't help one bit when it comes to dampening bumps. Sent from my LG-H932 using Tapatalk
  3. Yes, you're right. It's 0W-20. I misspoke. Sent from my LG-H932 using Tapatalk
  4. Being how the 5.3 calls for 5W-20, what would happen if you use a slightly thicker viscosity? I've heard some people say that using a thicker oil made their engine run more quiet. Sent from my LG-H932 using Tapatalk
  5. Yes. This is nothing but a cold weather noise. When it gets cold enough, the suspension components contract and tighten up. If it's not extremely cold, you should stop hearing the creaking noise after driving a couple miles. Same thing happened in my F150 and if you Google this, there are thousands of threads from many vehicle types that cover this same issue. Stop worrying so much guys. These forums have some of you tripping. I should know, they once had me tripping so bad, I was looking for shit to find wrong with my vehicles. Sent from my LG-H932 using Tapatalk
  6. Yes, it is the extreme cold. You will probably notice that after a few minutes of driving, the creaking goes away. I have a '16 Crew Cab and it does the same thing. Driving out of my neighborhood, the front suspension will creak over all of the speed bumps. Once I get to work 15 minutes later, it won't creak over the speed bumps at my work. This happens when temperatures get below freezing. I had a F150 that did the same exact thing. Once the suspension works and loosens up after a few minutes, all of the noises should go away. This is a non-issue. Sent from my LG-H932 using Tapatalk
  7. I don't know if this is the same issue or not but when it's cold, my front suspension will only creak for the first couple minutes (usually on the speed bumps exiting my neighborhood). After I've went over a few bumps and the suspension worked for a few minutes, the creaking goes away. Sent from my LG-H932 using Tapatalk
  8. Left over from a week ago? Damn. Sent from my LG-H932 using Tapatalk
  9. I don't have the vibration issue. Only issue I had with mine is the shocks going bad at 24k miles. Sent from my LG-H932 using Tapatalk
  10. Yea. It's a tradition. Chinese food on Christmas Eve and then the normal boring shit (turkey/ham) on Christmas. Sent from my LG-H932 using Tapatalk
  11. Dealer mechanics are terrible. I don't care what manufacturer it is. These new age dealer mechanics can't fix or diagnose a damn thing without a computer telling them what's wrong. I'd rather go pay a local old school mechanic rather than get my vehicle fixed under warranty from the dealer. Sent from my LG-H932 using Tapatalk
  12. If your truck has around 40k miles on it, it might benefit you to just order one and sit on it. [emoji3] Sent from my LG-H932 using Tapatalk
  13. Do you know anything about the issue I spoke about last night. We were going to get Chinese food for Christmas Eve and the entire truck would shake while in reverse. It would also shake when lighty tapping the gas cruising along in 3rd gear or so. It felt like a torque converter issue. Sent from my LG-H932 using Tapatalk
  14. Just took a ride in my father's Tundra to go get Chinese food for Christmas Eve. The entire truck shakes when reversing and while lightly pressing the gas in 3rd gear. I don't know if it's a torque converter issue or what. It's very bad though. Sent from my LG-H932 using Tapatalk
  15. Yup. My father has a '17 and it's been back to the dealer twice already. Once for a leaking rear and once for hard shifting. He also told me that his truck only has 10k miles on it and it's already burning oil. He's not happy one bit with Toyota considering they bought back his '16 Tacoma because it had so many transmission issues. Sent from my LG-H932 using Tapatalk
