    We have around 18000 miles on our car and we have been getting a noise from the right rear wheel. It only happens first thing in the morning and last for a minute or so. Sounds like the bearing but every time we take it to the dealership, they haven't been able to diagnose it. Anyone have this similar problem?

    It's a known problem - though mine started around 900 miles in the summer when it was wet/moist outside, but since it's been colder it hasn't been doing it recently. Check out the link below.

    Gabe... look for extensive thread on this under "groaning noise." Lots of us are experiencing this issue, and there has yet to be a resolution. Unless you got it fixed?

    I have the same issue and Toyota people are saying that they are looking in to it but no solution found yet. Sound is really irritating

    In the Netherlands there is a fix for this problem. The rear disk break mounts are replaced. The part nummers are:
    47822-47090 Mounting RR Disc Br Left
    47821-47090 Mounting RR Disc Br Right
