My 2004 Toyota v8 4wd sr5 4runner was bought brand new in Feb/2004. At speed 71-73 mph, it generates annoying harmonic humming noise from transmission and/or driveline. The noise is more noticeable in cold weather than in hot one. It become less noticeable at speed above 78 mph. A Toyota dealer mechanic test drove the car and confirmed the noise, but offered no help to fix the problem because they do not know how to.
