Mine makes that sound here and there too. I'm fairly sure it's the engine switching back and forth from direct injection and port injection. I've been meaning to hook my scan tool up so I can watch the live data and confirm it.
Makes me feel a little better about it then. I'm hoping the noise on mine is for the same reason!

To me it sounds just like this: https://www.tacoma4g.com/forum/threads/odd-engine-noise-2024-manual-trd.5055/

Which I concluded was normal after investigating. (It was the direct injection kicking in, we have both port side and direct.) Since that post I've driven 6000+ mi and the truck is fine.

I'm no expert. But hopefully that gives you some peace of mind.
It does sound like that but mine is more prolonged. The sound on yours seems to be just for a bit and then goes away?

Update: Dealership states that this is completely "normal" and nothing to be worried about.

Mines can sound a little more prolonged sometimes too. Sometimes less. Depends on a slew of things, how warmed up the engine is, how cold it is outside, playing with the throttle some more, going uphill, etc.
