Fuel Pump "Chirping"
Took my 2015 FRS to the Toyota dealer is Kona so the service manager could hear the Fuel pump "chirping" . Had him order a new one in advance of the first service. Had been told this issue was fixed for 2015, but I guess not.
It doesn't affect the performance, but I want the engine to purr, not chirp like a bird! |

got them 24/7 crickets after putting in 92 Costco gas, but then I read that people suggested 92 Chevron, been going there even if it's alittle more expensive, it goes off once in awhile but it ain't as crazy as before.

I went in to Servco last month for my first oil change and they didn't seem to notice the crickets. I didn't point it out to them either as it is such a known issue I figured I would just live with it since there seems to be no real fix.
