so.......
Had to drive about 20 miles in a snowy mess yesterday, was going around 45mph or so. Threw it in 4, (07 tacoma, 5sd. 2.7 reg cab) and the whole time i was in 4wd the engine sounded a bit louder. Should it be louder? It drove fine, only has 10k on it. When 4 was off sounded normal. It wasn't absurdly loud, just a bit more than normal
i really think it may be the engine under more load. it didn't sound "bad" just louder. No radio or talking and i could hear it, the slightest yapping or radio etc and i wouldn't have heard it.
I'm probably just paranoid. i've owned so many beater jeeps and junkers that i freak and investigate all noises and still look under this 10k miles only tacoma for drips.
thx!!
