I currently own a 4Litre Prado GXL 2004 model -Auto 4 speed and have noise sounding like a diff noise at 100 to 110K.
It is quite noticable driving at 110 km on expressway-concrete road and slightly less on bitumen over concrete.
I can slide the box into neutral and noise disappers but comes back when slide back into gear and under load.
I have had the service manager on a test run and he can also hear the noise but we could not exceed 100kph at the time.More noticable at 110 and less at 115.
His suggestion is that if I want they can pull the rear diff pinion out and replace it but the noise may still be there.
Does anyone have similar noise prob or am I too pedantic with my unit.
Would like to hear from other Prado owners with similar miles .
Regards
Wayne
