Hissing noises at low speed and rpm

I can also confirm a constant subtle hissing/whistling leaky air noise whether I’m on the throttle or not. It’s most noticeable when the music is off and I’m coasting 20+ mph foot off the gas. But once I hear it I can’t stop hearing it and it drives me nuts.

Also, I actually don’t hear it until I’ve driven the car for a couple of miles and it’s warmed up. The sound goes away when I drop to under 10mph and come to a stop.

Air dam is still on so it’s not the whistling from the holes in the control arm that some Tacoma owners have noticed

Yes, noticed for first time yesterday. Light throttle, low speeds. Goes away as soon as I cost or speed up. Sounds a bit like crickets.

It’s not uncommon to hear crickets when you are driving by woods

I drove mine yesterday and failed to hear anything. I said something to Julie and she hasn't heard anything in hers. Keep in mind I'm the guy who's had a smoke detector chirping going on a year and am constantly reminded when someone drops by. I doubt I would ever notice something like the hissing noise. If something goes boom with an associated trail of smoke, I'm definitely your guy. Good luck
