Just got new bearings and seal replaced by Ptuning. This is why my sc is making whining noise: The smaller bearings are in pieces!




I want to thank Kikcaffine for the bearings and seal.
And thanks to Ptuning, they did a great job rebuilt the sc. They even fixed my AC wire. The metal bracket above the SC pulley been rubbing on it. and cause it to blew a fuse.


Edited: added sound clip,

Did TRD gave anyone problem for SC with after market header?
My dealership said TRD have to send someone to look my SC, it is making high pitch whining noise.

I can put back my stock header, but my heat shield is damaged.

 

All, When you first showed them the car did it have the aftermarket header? because if so you might be screwed..If they dont know about the aftermarkert header you should be fine...but the TRD warranty states you can mod the supercharger in anyway....

 

my dc header was already in the car when i took it to install SC.

 

U CAN OR CANT?

 

i am sure he mean CAN"T

 

Sorry you can't

 

You can put the stock one back on. If they do void your warranty then get with me about getting some new bearings.

 

i got screwed on mine. what i dont understand is that they void it for a header yet the warrenty card they give you says fuel, bypass and pully system. it doesnt say exhaust.

the said that my shaft came apart from the impeller... any fix?

 

..

 

i dont get it either. the warranty card states, any modification to the supercharger will void warranty. the manifold ain't part of your s/c? duhnn duhnn duhnnn~

 

TRD might blame the seal leak due to heat from header, (my header have heat wrap)

 

if toyota didnt fix it pm me. I may have a solution to your problem.

 

i already had this talk with toyota. aftermarket header the s/c warranty is voided. they said they wont even put a s/c on a tc with an aftermarket header so if they put yours on with your header on then idk why. u can not modify the s/c in anyway or that will void the warranty on the car. u have a one year unlimited mile warranty with the s/c. that is what they told me.

 

oh my god, i just found out the stock heat shield won't fit under the SC.
and i didn't get the heat shield that come with the SC.

 

You dont need the heat shield...

 

well, i think i will put back the DC header before i take it in. That header was in when i bought it to the shop to get the supercharger install.
And the tech told me i have 1 year warranty.
i hope they honor it.

 

without the heatshield they may still void the warranty

 

had the same thing happen to me they put it on with the header, and didnt say anything

 

they deny my warranty,
i knew i should put back the stock header, even if the stock heat shield didn't fit.
Dynamic Performance will try to ask someone work for TRD about my SC, They don't really work with SC. Turbo is their specialty.

 

Care to describe your high pitch whining noise?
