Hi
My 2013 vx prado diesel continues to make a metal cracking noise from the exhaust system since the final capped price service from local toyota dealer, symtoms are increased fuel consumption criusing and towing.
It mainly makes the noise soon after turning the engine off (even after short trips) and sometimes when stuck in traffic, sounds like an overhot axhaust to me and its loud and never made this noise since owning the vehicle with 3k on the clock(it has 45k now).Took it back to the dealer in frustration and they did a "health check" on the car but said alll was o.k, I am sorry but its not o.k this issue is driving me nuts, ( unfortunately the car is now out off warranty)
any advice would be appeciated.
I live on the northern beaches in sydney.
Regards, CHRIS
