When accelerating on low rpm’s(sometimes) I hear the noise, almost sounds like the car will stall. no mods done to it,completely stock and it’s an automatic transmission. It only has 24k miles. Don’t want to take to the dealer really I hope I can find the solution here.

What year?

This is what I'd use the warranty for. Just take it in. Tough to diagnose anything with your vague description.

What I gathered from your post:

Stock Tacoma
Automatic
24k Miles
It accelerates.
It makes sounds.
It sounds like it's gonna stall.

What kind of sound? What area of the vehicle?

I apologize it was not a well thought-out question but it just sounds like a grinding/rattling noise when I’m accelerating around 1000-2000rpms almost sounds like something is loose but it goes away and sometimes I don’t hear it at all. And it’s all coming from the front. I have a 2021 Tacoma v6

Check for a loose heat shield maybe. It’s probably something stupid like that. If you can’t figure it out easily I would take it to the dealer

Does it only make the sound when accelerating or does it do anything if you rev in Neutral?
