3urfe noise

[stellz996]

okay so my completely remanufactured 3urfe has been installed and is running but has a sound the old one didnt, like an intermittent light tapping at idle

does this sound normal? have read tjat some of the 5.7 tundras were noisey and some werent

 

[dc916cruiser]

That sounds like my engine, and also like the 5.7 I had in my old tundra. Was the engine warmed up in the video?

 

[Taco2Cruiser]

Sounds pretty good to me. The 5.7 came out on my last days of working at a Toyota, and I remember the mobile training team saying that they knew people would be coming in complaining about the noise and chatter it makes.

It's the same sounds that comes from the 4.0L in Tacoma/FJ/4Runner, but more of it as it's a got more cylinders.

 

[TeCKis300]

Sounds like fuel injector ticking noise. This is a common known sound from the 5.7 at idle.

so the intermittent light tapping is normal, my old one was dead quiet, maybe the tundra and lexus were more different then people think

ye had just driven home,

My 2015 LX570 with less then 20k miles and perfect service records (3) oil changes is noisier then that. When your standing outside but when your in the LX you can't hear a thing

 

[Back 40]

I'm with the rest of the crew, it sounds just like mine.

After I bought mine I was slightly concerned and took it to the Lexus dealer for a general check up. They said everything was in perfect condition and that is just how this engine sounds.

 

[cru1s3r]

Sounds like my 2017.

 

[stellz996]

so that random diesel clattet from the right hand side is normal

 

[SWUtah]

The 470 sounds like a sewing machine compared to the 570

 

[SWUtah]

If you're worried next oil change do a oil analysis.

If you're worried next oil change do a oil analysis.

wat would i be looking for? thinking of doing its first oil change at 1000km and going to 10-40w oil

 

[SWUtah]

The oil in the house is like Blackstone hotel you if there's anything wrong in the report they send you. I would stay with Toyota recommended oil 0W 20 if that's what the engineers that designed the engine think you should use then that's the oil I would use

 

[SWUtah]

Damn that didn't come out right I said use Blackstone labs for oil analysis and they will tell you if there's anything wrong with your engine

 

[stellz996]

the car is an 08 but the factory that built the engine mever specified the year, so not sure what grade it needs

 

[SWUtah]

All years run on 0w20 it's a synthetic Mobil 1 makes it for Toyota

owners manual says differently

My 2011 and 2015 manuals state 0w20 same engine as 2008. Use what ever your owners manual recommends
