At 2600 rpm i get an intermittent ( aprox. 1 sec. duration, 1 sec. interval )harsh "grating" noise from the motor. The noise ONLY occurrs when the engine is at running temp.(30-50 km.) is not load specific,will occur in any gear and always at 2600 rpm. The vehicle ( hzj 75 tray ) was bought new, well maintained with the noise commencing at about 75k.(now 105k.)
Toyota can't offer any explanation, drive belts ok (no A/C) my thoughts incline toward thermo. fan centre, or air intake system (factory snorkel fitted. Any help or comments appreciated.
