gday mate,
maybe a badly made wheel bearing or some minor rotor problem. should be a warranty job so take it back to a toyota dealer.
all the best,
lauschie
I have no idea on this one, but on this topic of weird noises, has anyone else had problems with excessive wind noise, to the point where the car actually whistles. The dealer recognises the issue, but has no idea! Though maybe the brakes but appranetly the brakes can't be adjusted.
Finally I am not alone, I've this problem since my 1200km (now close to 5000km), around 1200km I went to Nauwanding Toyota - Service & Repair center and metion the problem to the Manager Geroge, as I cannot identify where doesn the noise came from, all I know is somewhere at the back, and the way it happen is exactuly as u guys experienced, left it over night, cold, very obvious noise as the car is slow, goes away as it run faster, I mention that all to him, even I got the sound record on my phone, but that old guy told me he coundn't heard anything.
When I came back for my 5k service, I mention that to other staff, they did the run test first day in the morning(i left it overnight), as what normally drama does, they can't heard anything, but this time this guy had a better ear than the manager(manager never hear what other said, ignore staff request and customer complain), he can hear the wired noise from my record, however as they can hear it in the road test, they can do nothing. :)
He ask to if that happen again, book a time with him, they will perform the road test again and try to identify what it is.
BUT, if they find out what is it and if that doesn't make any demage to the car, they will do nothing. (Maybe the wired noise comes a package, I cannot agree with him). As I can present any soild evidence, nothing i can do.
Maybe we can gather together and go to Toyota service center.
