    Same with my 2020. 5w30 helped a bit but it won’t go away completely.

    If a Toyota truck engine isn't ticking, then it isn't running. Every Toyota pickup I've ever owned has had a ticking of some kind. Nature of the beast.

    Wish I hadn't opened this thread. Tick never bothered me because I never noticed it. Now I'll be listening for it.

    An all Aluminum engine with two huge chains spinning furiously around up front makes lots of Ticky noises and its completely normal. That's how I explain it to myself and sleep well at night. :)
