| Since i've bought my car, at every car start up there is a noise or a rattle that is briefly audible for about 1 second then stops. when the vehicle is started again, the noise is no longer there. this only happens at vehicle start up. it sounds something similar to a winding noise. the engine in my vehicle is the exact same engine in the 2011 toyota camry, 2ar-fe. a tsb has been filed for the camry however a tsb has not been issued for the scion tc. my current mileage is 29800. i recommend a tsb be filed for the scion tc 2.5l 2ar-fe so i and others with this problem could repair our vehicles. tsb for camry: tsb number: tsb-0146-10 nhtsa number: 10034924 tsb date: june 9, 2010 date added to file: february 1, 2011. *tr | |||
