2.7 litre petrol engine noise

Postby Kidgeezer on Fri, 12 Oct 2018 1:53 +0000

Has anyone experienced a noise similar to diesel rattle or big end bearing rattle in a new 2.7?
After taking my Workmate dual cab back three days after purchase and leaving it at the dealership for three days, followed by a three hour drive with a Toyota Australia service rep, I was told (2 weeks later) that it was a “characteristic” of the engine. Of course, I don’t accept the brush off but I’d really like to fix it rather than get my money back. Please, only reply if you have had experience or real knowledge of this fault in 2018 2tr fe engines.

I’ve just been told by Toyota that my complaint has been rejected and they refuse to explain the source and reason for the noise.
Seems like Toyota has joined the growing mob of arsehole car makers producing underdone products and blowing their customers off when they complain.
Oh what a failing.
