Wind Noise - Whistle and Rattle

[Jabstep]

Has anyone noticed a slight whistle near the drivers side when you get close to 70 mph? I'm also getting a rattle on the passenger side. Both seem to be around the A pillar.

Wow, 70mpg is amazing - I'm only getting 20.8mgp. LOL - I'm sure you meant 70mph, but just couldn't ignore it.

As for the whistle, I haven't noticed it. Will pay closer attention and am interested if others are experiencing the same.

between 70-75mph while you’re lightly on the throttle? And then it stops as soon as you let off the gas?

if so that’s the differential howl. Mine is currently at the dealer getting a new differential

Its definitely not the turbo whistle.

Bump - just seeing if anyone else has experienced this? I'm bringing it into the dealer today. The rattle is similar to TRD Jon's Tundra videos.

How many miles do you have that you are experiencing this. I just hit close to 2000 miles so I will check to see if the truck has a rattle and sound as well. One thing that irritates me is the build quality is not what it used to be. I had every generation of tacoma and when I take apart all individually you can definitely tell that the build quality goes down with every generation.

Dealership claimed they found it. It’s the trim pieces on the room and they’re replacing them. I’ll update once I get it back.

I’ve had this wind noise twice not sure what it is but it definitely isn’t consistent

I'm having issues uploading a video but I don't believe the dealership has found the issue as they claim. I tapped down the trim pieces they claimed to be the issue with some painters tape and I'm still hearing the wind noise.

The driver's side is a whistle and the passengers side is a rattle. Both seem to be near the bottom corners of the wind shield.

I have the same issue it drives me crazy. Rattle starts for me around 50mph and gets louder. I can’t pinpoint what it is. Here is a video of what mine sounds like

Mine sounds exactly the same but on the passenger side. It did get a little better but oddly enough its gotten better after I've installed the OEM bed cover. Its probably coincidental.
