  • Noisy fuel pump

    Has anyone noticed the whine from the in-tank fuel pump on the D4D? My son commented on it last night when he got out of the car. I must say that it is quite loud, have a listen over the passenger side rear wheel. I assume this ammount of noise is normal?

    It was late at night BTW so very little background noise.

    Good thanks Roo, the noise is probably normal just very audible for an in-tank fuel pump (I assume it's in the tank) IMO like a fairly high pitched whine. If it was my pool pump making that noise I would suspect a shot bearing.

      Something is wrong here it's getting louder, even my wife commented on it today. I think I'll take it to my dealer tomorrow rather than risk a breakdown with my wife stuck somehere and I'm at work.

      Roo, when they changde the inter-tank filter at the last service a couple of months back, do they remove the pump and if so could they have done something wrong at that point?

        Thanks Roo, I don't need to put my ear on the tank as you can hear it clearly over the engine noise when you get out of the car on the passanger side and walk back near the rear wheel. That's how loud it is!

        Just hope it does not fail completely before they change it out. Maybe best to leave the car with them if it is the pump which I'm almost sure it must be given the location of the noise.

        Hope it's not a big job changing it out.

        I must say that I'm getting more dissapointed with this car as time goes by and I haven't even got 23,000 on the clock yet!

          Hi, Roo. I was shocked to read about your problems above with the 150 series and you have my full sympathies. I understand how you must've felt during the experiences and words probably can't describe. I'm a massive Toyota fan and weren't aware of any known issues with this model even though yours may just have been isolated and like you said... Could just be put down to plain old cruel indiscriminatory bad luck. Do you mind if I ask what ongoing issues you had and the difficulty you experienced with the decision you had to make to sell the car? I'm very interested to find out as this is very un-Toyota like. Reading that information just blew me away, that's all. Once again, I'm very sorry to hear that, mate, and nobody deserves that kind of un-warranted stress in their lives.

            Update - the pump will be replaced under warranty. they don't think it will fail but the noise is not normal. Interesting that it has now become more intermitant. Glad it's getting replaced though.

            Now going to also look at extending the warranty to six years...worth the price if I keep the car IMO.
