Apparently this is normal thing for Toyota Tacomas? The engine knocking noise? Not sure if I need to take apart the entire engine but here’s a video of the sound. I’ve read so many threads but also listened to some toyotas online that don’t sound like that

The ticking is "normal" but the knocking in the background Ive never heard on mine
 
I'd say so, my truck has the same "ticking" kind of noise but the knocking isn't normal

Thanks for the reply. I’m thinking it’s a lifter issue in the engine valve. Hopefully I can make it to NC which is 600 miles away 😅
 
Do you have a check engine light?
 
i believe the ticking is the high pressure fuel pump, but the knocking doesn't sound great. i'm amazed at how noisy this engine is, and i had an FJ prior to this.
