I purchased a Tacoma Prerunner, TRD new in 2001. I am very pleased so far but ....... I have this extremely irritating noise that seems to come from either the rear end or driveshaft. It almost sounds like a bolt clanking around inside of a tin can. I have taken it to the dealer 4 times now and all that they can say is "Sorry sir, we cant duplicate the problem" The dealer has even gone so far as to have his "Master mechanic" drive it back and forth from his home for a week ( round trip travel was about 100 miles!) Sure as heck, I picked it up yesterday and sure enough, clank clank ...... The truck has only 38,000 miles, still under warranty, etc. What are my options now? Anybody out there have a similiar problem. Would bitching to Toyota do me any good??? TIA,
Dan
