#5 of 72 (1) This is nice and (2) clicking sound by crudeoasis Apr 09, 2001 (1:34 pm)
Thanks KarenS for the new Sequoia spot.   To quote "buyit22" from the other board: "I have a 4wd limited. ... When I put it in drive then touch the accelerator, there is a distinct click, click coming from the console area toward the front of the vehicle. It only clicks twice then goes away until the next startup. This is in 2wd mode. Any similar experiences?"   I have a 4wd SR5 that I use exclusively in high 4wd mode and it always makes exactly the clicking sound you describe. I assume it's some sort of drive-train subsystem checking on itself, but I have no idea. Anyone know??

Picked up my wife's new (eleven miles) white Limited last Thursday. It's the first vehicle that she's ever had that had a sticker...although they didn't even put our sticker on the car.
#7 of 72 Hello by mcmatt Apr 09, 2001 (4:33 pm)
I have had my Sequoia for about a month now.   Silver LTD 2WD with all options except bug shield, I think.   So far, the only things that I haven't absolutely loved are the (1)GBS on alarm not working right and the dealer not knowing anything about it, (2) the booming bass stereo, and (3) the gas mileage so far is not quite 15mpg even though we have been on the road a few times. But overall, it is an excellent vehicle. I have been sold on Toyotas for a while.   I am new to Town Hall, but I have read many posts and posted a couple. My interests will lie in the technical areas. I do a lot of work on my cars myself. I don't like hassling with service departments and then having to pay out the wazoo for it.   I look forward to sharing stories with everyone. I am glad this forum is available.
#8 of 72 Clicking Sound by slickrock Apr 10, 2001 (11:01 am)
Mine also does it, and from what I have read, I believe that it is part of the ECU (computer) self-checking process.   I think it is normal, and given all the ECU's and relays in the vehicle, it's a wonder there aren't more than two clicks.
#9 of 72 clicking by mcmatt Apr 10, 2001 (11:30 am)
Another confirmation on the two clicks. I think it is normal. It seems to occur when I reach a certain speed/rpm.
#10 of 72 re-clicking sound by oac3 Apr 10, 2001 (12:43 pm)
all:   the two clicks you hear when you put the car in drive mode are the self-checks of the VSC and TRACS... These are described/explained in the manual   Hope this helps
#11 of 72 Re-clicking sound by crudeoasis Apr 11, 2001 (5:30 am)
oac3, thanks for the info that it's in the manual. This is embarrassing, but I've had my Sequoia for over a month and I haven't read the full manual, only the summary manual. Gotta crack the book!
#12 of 72 Thought I'd join in... by fishcar Apr 11, 2001 (6:50 pm)
Finally decided that I would jump in to the discussions. I have 1600 mi on my Silver SR5 (with DR,GY,RL,CC,AH,CQ,AC, and CF), and am loving it (it doesn't tick, and the audio is better than any other car I've had, so no complaints).   Traded in my 88 4rnnr for the SQ... the 4rnnr was my baby... had a close encounter with an elk after 65,000 miles, and wasn't even out of alignment. Cost me (well, allstate) $4,500 for cosmetic repairs. Anyway, drove it another 70,000 before family expansion required moving up to 4 doors and more space (didn't want to leave one of my daughters home when I went camping/fishing). My experiences with the 4rnnr sold me on Toyotas.   Has anyone heard instructions on how to program/train the Homelink for a home security system? I haven't tried calling the dealer yet, but am curious...   Also, there has been a long thread on sequoia solutions regarding using synthetic oils. Will a dealer service dept listen to me when I ask them to use synthetics?   Looking forward to some interesting discussions. D
