    Hey guys, I wanted to ask if its normal for my 4runner to make a creaking noise when I move into reverse then drive? I believe its my brakes, but it only does it when I switch from Reverse to Drive or vice versa. It doesnt make any noises when im braking while driving. Sorry if this is a dumb question, I just wanted to hear yall's thoughts. It's a 2023 with 6,000 miles. Changed the oil about a week ago, but it was making this noise before that.

    It could be the self adjuster inside the drum parking brake that is making that noise. It hear it on mine from time to time under the conditions you wrote about.

    My experience is a clicking noise sometimes when backing up and then applying the brake. My 2015 Tacoma does the same thing.
