I have a 2004 DC since March and have been back and forth to dealer. They replaced my rear shocks about 3 weeks ago. Squeak or as we like to call it "chirp" went away for about two days, then returned, less pronounced, but still there. Hope Toyota solves this one some day. I understand from research, problem has been reported back to 2001 models.

I have a 2000 4by4 6 cylinder Tundra bought March 2004 with 114,000 km. I greased all of my grease fittings on all the drive shafts and universal joints, but then I got the same squeaking noise you have. The problem was with the rear universal joints which I replaced. Ta da! No more probs. Luv my Tundra.

Thanks for the update! I think this will help alot of frustrated Tundra owners who are irritated by this stupid little 'chirp.'
I probably won't get to taking my truck in for a few months, but I will update everyone when I do.
I'm glad you fixed your problem.
Also, Luv my Tundra too.

Tundra Rear Suspension Squeak (chirp)

Yesterday, the dealer replaced my rear shocks (my fourth visit). The squeak is gone (for now). I hope it stays that way. The one thing that the dealer kept trying to tell me is that this was a problem that was unique to my particular truck. I told him of others that I had found with similar issues caused by defective shocks. It was only after my fourth visit and a refusal to have any lubing of the parts done that they went along with trying shock replacement

over at tundra solutions, their was a post about the 04 rear squeak. Here's quote attributed to this member: Apparently there is a missing o-ring or gasket between the upper rear shock mounts and the shocks "washer". I removed my rear shocks from the frame and could see where the rubbing was taking place. The upper shock "washer" is in contact with the frame mount. The shock "washer" has a flange that "enters" and opening on the frame mount. It was clearly visible that this is where the rubbing occured. I just wrapped the flange with electrical tape to provide insulation and lubrication between the metal parts. This was his fix.

V8-TUNDRA ROUGH IDLE

I own a 2001 Tundra. The idle is rough and at times the engine will die. The engine will crank right back up but will continue to idle roughly. The toyota dealership has pressure cleaned the injectors, replaced the plugs, and inspected the throttle body. They still can't get the idle adjusted. The truck has 67k miles on it. Has anyone experienced this problem?

04 tundra oil filter change

I just purchased a 04 tundra double cab a few months ago. Is there an aftermarket oil filter relocation kit for this truck? It is sure a pain to drop the lower engine cover everytime you need to change the filter.

I had almost the same thing with my 2000 Tundra with 78000 miles, I had the rear brakes adjusted and the brake problem was gone, as for the bump, take it in as soon as possible and have the dealer take the Transmission pan off, there are four mangets inside if your trany is going, it will have metal pieces all over them. If not you pay only for a transmission inspection and fuild fee, cheep since the transmission cost is $3800.00 good luck! Try backing up hard and see if the trany is slipping if so you will know!
