the 2016 all new hilux revo is really a good damn pick-up. i have no regret in buying this pick-up even there are a lot of choices out there.

the only issue that we encounter with other hilux owners, is the rattling sound underneath which is annoying to a brand new vehicle. the rattle sound is loud coming somewhere from the transmission assembly to the propeller when the vehicle is running in a rough road condition and the gear shift is in neutral position.

we reported the issue to the dealer and they acknowledge the problem. technical reports were made by toyota after road testing and as of now, we are awaiting their technical team to assist the problem. 2 hilux owners already reported the same problem and more of our friends who are also all new hilux owners are waiting for the final findings since they also experience the same problem.

im sharing this issue so prospective buyers may have atleast have an idea of those possible warranty claims with this all new hilux. though it is a simple problem and can be easily fixed by toyota if they can pinpoint the exact cause of the rattle sound. its not something to worry about but as i said, its annoying to hear that loud rattle sound with a brand new vehicle.

and to toyota, i still bought this hilux even if I know beforehand on this possible issue since my friend already filed his complaint to the dealer even before i ordered my unit. i know that this is just a simple issue and we believe that you can fixed this problem. otherwise, i will forget toyota brand for the rest of my life. as you can check in your database, i bought 6 brand new different units from your company for the last 2 years and this is my first time to experience such problem in a brand new vehicle.

to fellow tsikoters, ill keep you posted on the development of this warranty claim.

by the way, units involve in this problem are hilux 4x4 with manual transmission.
