low range gear whine

Is it normal to have a whine in low range, I have 2016 SR5 and was just checking how low range on the beach and I could hear gear noise whine.

Yep totally normal. Whines like a biatch, normal. I actually love it, coupled with a 3inch exhaust note on the V6 :)

I resolved the issue with mine by using the process of elimination

Now the misses sits in the canopy or she stays at home

Problem solved
