    I notice this high pitch bird chirping when I close my drivers door. I tried shaking the truck and cant mimic the sound. Doesn’t bother me but if anyone had a solution or similar problems please chime in. Heres the vid

    I find my Tundra is filled with squeaks and things, I've just kind of accepted it.

    Squeaky brake pedal? Yep.
    Squeaky console shifter? Yep.
    Bed creaks over small bumps? Yep.

    I figure a loud ass exhaust after tax season should square all of those away nicely. :thumbsup:

    heard a bird chirp on my '19; turned out to be the spare tire. tighten that puppy up just a hair.

    there is a spring on the cable that acts as a shock mechanism. small bumps, or closing of doors would cause the spring to flex and rub the pin it surrounds just enough to chirp.

    buddy has an '18. he attributed his bird chirp to the 3/1 he had installed. NOPE, same as mine. spare tire was the cause on his too. tightened up, no more chirp.

    good luck in finding that bird.

    I think I may know, mine does it and it’s right behind the grille. There are 2 small silver mounting tabs that hold one of the coolers (don’t know what it is) to the top of the radiator support. That’s going to be your noise. I put a little grease in them and it went away for a while but is back now. I will try to snap a picture when I head out this morning.

    Put your phone on the drivers seat, and record the sound of you opening & closing the door. This will eliminate the seat.

    I'm glad it worked. I had the same sound that was driving me crazy. Once I found the issue online and hit it with PTFE dry lube it went away, and hasn't come back.
