    There appears to be a grinding sound on the front left side of my Tundra, sounds like it’s from the front left wheel almost, that appears typically when I’m between about 1500-2000 RPM. Anyone else have this issue? Could it be a missing washer or something? Been happening for probably 15,000 miles and after numerous inspections I see no damage or any wear and tear.
    I just love strange noises from my TRD !

    Anyone have a similar problemo?
