ticking

So I’ve noticed recently that my 2004 Lx470 (250,000 miles) has a ticking noise that is sometimes very noticeable fat operating temperature in the cabin slightly on the passenger side. But I don’t really hear it outside of the car with all the other noises of the engine. I have don’t really have...

Hi all, just picked up my first Toyota, a 2000 Land Cruiser. Test drove it when already warm in a louder area, and couldn’t hear a ticking sound while the car was hot and in park. But now I realize when the car is cold there’s a loud ticking coming from the exhaust manifold, yes I know the...

Hi guys, I have had this ticking noise from the engine since I bought the car a year ago. It is a 2008 LC200 with the diesel V8 and you can hear the ticking from around 3 secs into the video. Car has approx. 191000 km/118600 miles on the clock. Any suggestions? Injectors or the normal...

Hey everyone I just got done deleting the Egr on my 1997 hilux surf with the 3.0td and factory inter cooler. I used the blockoff kit from vanlife northwest and installed an egt temp probe on the exhaust plate. I cleaned a ton of carbon buildup out of the intake manifold and intake ports. I bled...

Hi All, New to the forum, I'm after some help regarding a ticking noise coming from my 200 series. Here is a video of the ticking - I picked up the car from an auction, noticed a slight ticking noise when the car started which gets louder as the revs are increased I went through the...

Hi guys. I been hearing this sound for like half a year now. It didn’t get louder. It didn’t bother that bad. But I wanna fix it. I went through a shop they roughly look at it said it’s lifter. I’ll post the sound under this thread. I really hope is some exhaust manifold which most people had...

OK, short story long. I wanted to replace leaking 2uz VVTI cam seals, they were making a mess. I got the parts, watched the video, and thumbed through the FSM. I DID NOT want to replace the water pump and all the goodies because it had already been done 40k ago (documented). And yes I should...

I have a 200 series with 98,000 miles and for the last eight or nine months I’ve been noticing a ticking noise when the engine first is turned on and is idling. After running the engine for 10 minutes or so and it comes up to temp the ticking noise goes away. I’ve changed the oil every 5000...

I just bought a 2018 Taco, my first, and I want to be jazzed but there is this ticking sound making the engine sound pretty ugly. I got it with 75k miles and this guy I know had his with 95k, but his engine sound like a purring kitten. My friends say get my valves adjusted, but my brother...

UPDATE - truck started fine this morning. Sound goes away when truck is running. Also, definitely seems to be AC related, when I turned off AC before shutting off engine, there is no more ticking/knocking sound. Maybe a solenoid or switch associated with AC? Hoping someone can shed some light...

Hello everyone, I have a 2003 79 Series with the 1HD-FTE and it seems to have developed a ticking noise. It's always had it a tiny bit but always thought it was throw out bearing related as the throw out bearing always made a high pitched noise. Until recently I had been using Penrite HPR...

Afternoon, first post so i apologize if this has been asked before, I've used the search function and read a couple of similar posts but would like to get some more opinions. I have a new to me 2013 lc200 with 156k miles on her and I'm wondering if this is how these motors "normally" sound or if...

Good evening! I’d really appreciate your opinion, thanks in advance… I’ve got an ‘86 FJ60 we named Buttercup, always wanted a cruiser, we love this thing… It’s got 310k miles, couldn’t resist buying the truck about two years ago with the intention to take on a project and do everything...

Hey all, I recently bought a 99 Cruiser with 290k on the clock. The starter went out last week. (no click, no start) I followed exiting threads to learn how to pull the manifold and replace the starter. After buttoning everything up the truck wouldn't start. I had a friend helping me when I...

So I changed my big end bearings last weekend and need some advice. I Replaced the original OEM bearings (marked with "4", BEB Pictures Here) with standard size taiho. The old bearings looked ok and all of the rod journals looked good. I plastigauged only cylinder #4 and it was right in...

I went to run errands the other day and experienced a weird ticking noise before I got out of the neighborhood, so in case it was something important, I came home. It starts at around 30mph, frequency increases with speed and cannot be heard with the truck parked and increasing RPMs. We had a...

Hi all, I have the infamous ticking sound that indicates an exhaust manifold leak. The dealer replaced the left side manifold at 125k (now have 150k), so I am thinking the right side is leaking. That said, the dealer told me last year that both sides are leaking. Three questions. 1. I have...

Hi all, I'm trying to track down a ticking noise that comes from the driver's side after the engine has warmed up a bit. Follows the rev range. I assumed it was a manifold gasket or a cracked manifold. I removed the manifold this weekend and didn't see any cracks. I made a Photobucket album...
