Do all FJR's sound like jets?

My 05 has had a "howl" in it since new. The dealer says it's normal. It is sometimes a bit irritating. Sounds like the scream of a jet engine. (maybe it is)
Is it normal? If so, is there any specific type of oil that helps tone it down?
No...They only sound that way when operating. Very quiet all other times.

 
Once again I must give a big "THANKS DUDES" to all who responded to this thread.

It was the type of well thought out, highly intellectual information, that I needed. After all "laughter is the best medicine," and you guys have once again provided me with my daily medication. :lol: :lol:
