the noise you hear sounds like an engine rattle and it happens mostly cold, this is due to piston be contracted when cold. When it warms up, the piston expands and the noise goes away
If you say so.

A co worker of mine has a 95 SR5 4x4 with about 127k. Something in the top part of the motor went askew. I don't know what. But He paid the Yota dealer about $2500 to solve the problem. That being about 4 months ago now when the truck is started it makes a "clunking" noise. It does not go away after the truck is run. But it isn't as noticeable at driving speed. The yota dealer said it was rod bearings and would be another $2000 at least. That is what I have been told
