07 2.0 odd noise on changing up - lol@theknoll
When changeing up, from 1st to 2nd and 3rd to 4th there is a strange and noticeable oo! sound. This can only be heard when traveling on a reasonably quiet surface. Although this is mildely amusing, as we are coming to the end of the 3 yr. warranty it would be nice to know if this is a precurser to a future problem, ie, gearbox, clutch, flywheel !!!
This phenominan only started recently at about 20K miles.

Clutch release bearing? I suggest you get it to your nearest Toyota dealer before the warranty expires and take someone from the service department out in it to demonstrate the noise.
If you can "play a tune" by depressing the clutch pedal whilst you hear the noise then there is a strong probability it is the release bearing on its way out.
