I bought a toyota saquoia limited 4x4 used in 2003. When I tookit to a friends house her husband siad I should get that ticking noise checked out. I told him that all of the suv's at the dealership made the ticking noise. Well, he was right. When I took it in to be inspected I was told that I had a cracked manifold.

I manifold is not a cheap part to replace.
