STARTED CAR AND HEAR A LOUD WHINING NOISE BUT NO LIGHTS CAME ON. WITHIN 2 DAYS THE WHINING NOISE WAS NOT HEARD WHEN STARTING CAR BUT TRAC OFF, VSC LIGHT, AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WERE ALL ON. TOOK THE TRUCK TO MECHANIC AND HE CHANGED THE BATTERY AND FLUSHED THE BRAKE FLUID. LIGHTS WERE OFF FOR ABOUT 2 MORE STARTS OF THE TRUCK AND ALL LIGHTS WERE BACK ON. TOOK IT BACK TO THE MECHANIC THE NEXT DAY AND HE KEPT THE TRUCK FOR 2 DAYS, CALLED TOYOTA AND THEY TOLD HIM TO REPLACE THE AIR INJECTION DRIVER. THIS WAS DONE 12 NOV 10 AND BY 13 NOV 10 ALL LIGHTS ARE BACK ON AGAIN AND THE TRUCK IS HAVING ISSUES PICKING UP SPEED. *TR
