Consumer Description

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
