67k miles, whine only when accelerating

She's at the dealership to have it replaced, still under warranty so I didn't put any wrenches to it.

on the bright side, they gave me a brand new tacoma trd offroad to play around in till my trucks done

 

My trucks at the dealership for the seal leak posted in the pictures above. They are aware of the whine via video I have and they will drive it obviously to hear it first hand. Sales manger said, no that's not normal he'll get service to look into that also. Trucks still under warranty.

to address your bullet points,

1st- I believe that's where its coming from, never tried the neutral part but my whine continues through 70+, start to hear it around the 30 mark under acceleration. Anything under 30 you just hear the mesh screen whistle and exhaust mostly. Which is normal so it doesn't bother me so bad to remove it.

2nd- My metal skid is missing a bolt in the front but I would be amazed on that being the issue. I don't put nothing pass noises though.

3rd- I tried a/c off and on, sound is still present.
