    I have three issues currently that are driving me a bit bonkers. My truck is a 2016 Tundra SR5 Crew Max 4x4. I have 94000kms and the only thing I had replaced was a pulley/tensioner.

    1. This previous winter someone ran into the side of my truck and the insurance had it fixed, it was fairly minor. The paint the shop used is black, but it does not match one bit. It has a milky hue to it and it's not "clear". Shop is going to repaint it in a few weeks. So we will see how that works out.

    2. When cruising just over 1k rpms around 60kph I hear a "whoa whoa whoa" noise that seems to change with gas input to a minor extent. Above or below that range it doesn't seem to be noticeable. At first I thought it might be a wheel bearing as the truck does slightly pull to the right. I checked the front end and I don't hear anything out of the ordinary when spinning the hub with the wheel off. There is also no play. I can not replicate it in park. So I'm unsure if its something in the exhaust, or wheels/tires.

    3. If I take off more than lightly there seems to be an increase in noise as oppose to a gradual take off. I've been wondering if this was the fuel pump filter screen thingy that people mention. This is my first Tundra and I have no others to compare it too.

    Any suggestions on issues 2 and 3 would be appreciated. I will try to capture videos of it but it is hard to hear, although I do know it is there.
