Has anyone else noticed a creaking popping sound in steering column when still still and turning steering ?
I have started noticing this when parallel parking extreme turning of steering wheel ?
 
so nobody is experiencing any noise while turning steering wheel sharp to left and backing up ? Its not the brake squeal , but more of something in the steering control arms ?
 
no. But floor creaks a lot. First year woes..... Brakes squeal, there's a squeak somewhere I cant pinpoint..... I have a list going.... not exactly Toyota quality I'm used to....
 
Not experienced this issue. I have recently noticed what sounds like an intermittent hum from the brake booster. This is not the typical brake booster cycling I'm used to hearing. Like a constant humming until brakes are no longer pressed. Does not always repeat on startup.
 
It is almost like a clunking sound , If anyone had an older GM truck that had the noise in the steering column when turning steering wheel it is much like it. The fix is to grease the shaft in steering wheel or replace all the bushing in steering column
 
I have this issue, at low speeds when I turn left or right I hear and feel a clunk in wheel/suspension in the direction I am turning.

There is no tire rub.

It doesn’t occur when I fully turn the wheel either direction when stopped, only when going a slow speed.

Did you figure out what was causing the clunk?
 
recently I have install a set of H&R spacers 25mm on my 2024 LC250. These few days, during slow head in parking I will hear this low creaking sound so I'm not sure my spacers is causing this. Do you have larger tires, lifted, or spacers that might be the cause.
 
I'm experiencing the same issue with my 2024 Land Cruiser 1958. It's a distinct clicking or popping sound from the front end, most noticeable at low speeds when the steering wheel is close to full lock, especially in reverse.

I took it to the dealership, but they said they couldn't replicate the noise. They did lubricate some components, but it didn't solve the problem.

I've seen this issue mentioned on forums for the new Tacoma as well, so it seems to be a common quirk with the new TNGA-F platform.

Do you have a link to that forum?

Sorry I can't seem to find it but upon further investigation I think the noises may be coming from my skid plates not my steering. I do have full set of RCI aluminum skids. This guy explains it

Yes. It’s skid plate noise. Ensure to tighten all the bolts per specs
