I had it. It would do it right after when letting off the brake pedal after coming from a stop. It did not do it every time. I though it was normal. This truck was bought used with 67K so weeks later after aquiring it, I decided to conduct a trans fluid after the fluid change the shifts were smoother and the "klunk" has been gone since then.

Seems the 07 and 08's had this problem more so than the 2010's on up, but could be wrong since as the tundra ages, the driveline clunk will and can happen more often. However, my former 2007 had it bad right off and dealer greased everything up before 10K and was better.

If that don't fix the problem i know what might. I had the same problem. I took mine in and they say it was low on transmission fluid don't know how it did not leak out. So they fill it and bingo bump gone not been back scene.
The last 12k or so I've started having this problem, however not so much at a stop, but I drive about 1-1/2 miles at 55mph from my house then drop down to 35mph through town, this 55-35mph coast is where mine happens almost every time, doesn't do it each time but getting pretty consistant now as soon as I ease back into the throttle it gives that bump feeling like the transmission is shifting or something. I'm wondering if it has something to do with the torque converter unlocking and locking back up.

I took my 2010 crewmax 2wd for service and asked them to check this same issue about a year ago and they said everything was torqued and was to tolerance in the shaft. I asked what the hell does that matter if there is still a problem. This thread makes me mad.
I know this has been a long time issue. I had this same "bump from behind" issue in my truck. I mentioned it a couple of time to the service advisor but no one could find anything. Finally I noticed that the front driveshaft joint was spraying a thin film of oil under my truck. I took the truck in and they changed the entire driveshaft. What a surprise to find that the "bump" was gone after that. It's been about year and I've never had the bump again.

I printed out the TSB and took it to the dealership, and they ended up ordering a new drive shaft. Went back a week later after the parts arrived and they installed it, zero cost.

I have a 2011 Regular Cab 2wd with a 5.7 litre. The truck has 18000 kms on it and has done this since new. I didn't realize it was problem, as it only happens on the same intersection going downhill. I assumed it was gravity and never thought anything of it...I guess I will get it looked at during the next oil change.

You are not confusing this with the truck downshifting are you? Going down hills, the transmission will down shift to maintain your speed. It reduces wear on the brakes. You can check by watching the tach. If the tach rpm increases when it occurs, then it is the transmission. Your truck is supposed to do this.
