Anyone have any ideas what this noise might be?
I know it's hard to diagnose over the interwebs. But it sounds like I have huge mud tires. It's annoying. Happens when I put the truck in neutral and coast.
 
At what speed? Bad U-joint?
 
Any speed...
 
Doesn't do it in gear?

Front wheel bearings?
 
It does it in gear and in neutral. It gets quieter when shifting and the comes back... Very annoying
 
general location of where the sound originates? front, middle, rear, diver's side, pass side, etc.
 
Sounds like its front driver side
 
Haha it was my tires! I inflated them too much. [emoji57]
 
Hi guys, I have this noise. it happens when its hot outside and only at higher speeds like 65mph+. Doesn't happen all the time. Seems like only when hot. tires are inflated at 34psi. sound coming from driver side wheel it seems like. it does sound like i have off road tires but I just have standard Michelins standard size. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If you are still having this issue, it maybe the Kazoo noise. it's heard at high speeds especially with high cross wind. There's a leak in the weather stripping causing a noise. It's hard to diagnose since everyone thinks it's coming from tires or something. Simple fix by putting some sort of filler in the weather stripping near the top of the driver side window: Cross Wind front window noise TSB Update. - https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/cross-wind-front-window-noise-tsb-update.530653/
