    I have a 2008 5.7L Tundra. The other day I started the truck and a few seconds later it made a sound like a psst. It sounded like someone let air out of the tire. It was a sharp loud sound that did not last very long. Any guesses? Should I be worried? Thanks

    Air injection pump, it's normal, it reduces emissions on cold startups
