Hey guys.

Just brought a ln65 hilux 2.4 diesel.
Here's my problem, When i get to higher revs like 2000-3000 there's a large humm coming from the passanger side.
Iv'e checked the exhaust gaskets and they look fine, Does anyone else have any ideas as to what it could be?

Thanks,
Deneo.

Hmm could be a vibrator, check under the passenger seat i'd say!
Either that or a large humming bird, try replacing it with a smaller bird.


but all jokes aside check to see if you've got a broken engine mount or exhaust mount.

Haha!

Checked under the passanger seat, Nothing but 5 and 10c coins so i'll rule out the vibrator.
Have to check again for said humming bird and a broken engine mount.

Cheers mate,
Deneo.

Good call Rusty.
Do you have a snorkel??

Have you checked all you exhaust mounts?? Engine, gearbox/transfer case mounts??

There really isnt a whole heap under the passenger side.
