Ceramic coatings don't do anything for scratch prevention, so I wouldn't focus on that aspect as the reason for scratches. They are literally just a few atoms thick, not going to make any difference when it comes to that kind of protection.

Mine is definitely coming from the engine compartment, and with almost 9k miles on the ORP now it's only getting slightly louder.

Some people on the 4G tacoma forum think it's a solenoid in the purge valve: https://www.tacoma4g.com/forum/threads/weird-chirping-sound.6264/ I'm tempted to order one and try it since it looks like it's probably a cheap and easy part to replace. Need to find part number....

Just a follow up in case anyone reads this in the future, the issue was not related to the brake TSB. That has been completed and I still have this chirping noise.

We are all stuck trying to get this noise fixed. 😔

If it's a bearing or other suspension issue I'm guessing it can affect either of the front wheels.

No luck, been trying to find a way for months so I can keep my bike rack on the back without at beeps or warnings every time I start the vehicle.

I've been dealing with this since day 1 on my ORP, definitely frustrating. For me it happens once I get above 20MPH or so, and is more pronounce the warmer out it is. Dealer said they couldn't hear it the two times I took it in, which is frustrating as once you hear it it's hard to NOT hear...

Having the front skid plate definitely makes this a lot easier, only two jack points to do all 4 tires each winter which is nice.

Now if we could just get some tail lights….

Yeah, it’s the main reason I didn’t get the Pro or TH as well. Would have loved the added torque of the hybrid, but I need that storage space more.

FWIW I ended up getting the Orvis one and I’m completely happy with it. Holding up very well to some decent abuse, and my dog loved the front vent material when the AC is needed.

Mine eventually went away on its own, but it took weeks.

I did the same, doh! Luckily only a couple bolts to remove.

I made a ramp for my dog to get into the back seat, none of the pre-made ones I found really fit well or the dog shied away from. This works perfect, and I can just slide it behind the front seats when not in use. Like others here, I prefer my dog harnessed in the back seat with his dog...

On some builds they pipe fake engine noise over the speakers in Sport Mode. You can disable it with Carista though. Personally I always drive in sport mode, not because it’s faster but because it gives you better throttle response. I actually get better gas mileage in Sport mode over normal...

I use those vents to store extra mud and snow in case I ever run out.

After waiting almost 6 months for parts for this issue, I finally got a call from my service department they were in last week. Took it in, and so far at least the noise is now gone. My service rep said they that so many vehicles at their dealership are waiting for these parts that Toyota is...
