Chevrolet - Cavalier :: 2004 - Rattling Noise When Turned On
Last week my car started making a rattling noise whenever I turned it on and when I went over bumps or potholes in the road. It sounded like it was coming from the trunk latch or something. It also started squeaking- I knew it wasn't my breaks because I wasn't using my brakes when the squeaking happened. I finally realized my muffler is jiggling around, so I crawled under my car to check it out. There's a part on the left of the muffler right by the rear tire that connects the muffler to the under side of the car. It looks like something is missing- rubber or something that holds the pieces of metal there. Is this something I can find and fix myself? Or do I need to go to a mechanic? I was going to zip-tie it up, but there's not really anything to loop it through. Will my car be further damaged if I don't fix it soon? (2004 Chevy Cavalier)

We have a 2004 Excursion limited edition with 6.0 diesel. This is a recent purchase for our family. This is our first ever Ford and our first ever Diesel.
Now that we are transitioning into colder weather, we recently tried to place the air from AC to Heater. When we tried, we noticed a clicking or hitting noise from the passenger side behind the glove box. When we stopped the air, the noise stopped. When we kept it on the AC, it stopped. Last night we tried to replicate the issue to get more info and we saw that now its stuck on heater and we lost the AC cold air. The module that is making noise is behind the glove box. It is not coming from the actuator that moves air from the feet to the vents, but it is to the right of the actuator and has a plug with about 4 cables plugged into it.
Questions:
What is this module so that I can order a new one?
Does this sound like a bad HVAC blend door actuator? (not trying to steer it that way if its not.)
Any videos on how to replace it? I only see one bolt that mounts it and it appears to be about 8 mm. Is that the only thing holding it?
Cavalier - Chevrolet :: Screeching When Turning / Loud Rhythmic Clunking Noise When Car Is Turned On

View 4 RepliesChevrolet - Cavalier :: 2005 - Clicking Noise Under Glove Box / Now The Engine Light Is On?
I just purchased an 05 cavalier and today a loud clicking noise started right down by the glove box. I have full a/c and heat. If I turn the climate control to recirculate the clicking stops. But now the orange engine light is on. I've heard it could be the blend door actuator from what I've read online. Would this cause the engine light to come on? The code reading from autozone was coolant leak/coolant low/thermostat something along those lines. But the engine light came on 3 hrs after the clicking started so I am thinking it's related.
Oh also (the clicking stops after the car warms up a bit)? I would love to just buy the part online and have a small place replace part. I cannot afford hundreds of dollars in labor. If that is the right part does the dash need to come out in an 05 Cavalier or can it be gotten to under the glove box?

2009 corolla bought in early 08's so car just about 5 years old. This morning when I turned the heat on I heard a ticking noise. I'm assuming it is the from the heater blower motor? I think the part is behind the glove box. Where is the best place to get the part and where is the best place to find how to do the install?
View 4 RepliesForester - Subaru :: 2004 - Smells Electrical When Turned On The Heater Fan?
I have a 2004 Subaru Forester, today when I turned on the heater fan I noticed that electrical (melting) smell, and the fan thus only ran very slowly on setting three and mostly okay on setting four, but not really at all on setting one or two. I found where the fan is located, but was wondering if it is the blower motor or the blower motor resister. I think on high, the blower motor by-passes the resister, and it seemed as though the smell really only occurred when I had the blower set on a lower setting. The resister is about $45 and the blower is about $145. If I can get by with only replacing the resister, that would be cool because I am assuming a new blower motor does not come with a new resister attached and I would have to buy that separately.

View 9 RepliesFord - Explorer :: 2004 - RPM Related Squeal Which Gets Louder If Heater / AC Fan Is Turned On
Have a 2004 Sport Trac with approx 78,000 miles. My daughter drives the vehicle around town. Approx. 2 weeks ago when she started it a loud squeal came from under the hood. I raised the hood and determined it was coming from the serpentine belt. I sprayed some lubricant on the belt and the sound went away, temporarily. I took the vehicle to a local mechanic. He thought the belt needed to be replace and did so. He showed me the old belt and commented that the old belt was in great shape and he could not determine where the sound came from. He also was able to spray lubricant on the belt and make the sound stop for a while. The squeal is definitely rpm related and also gets louder if the heater/ac fan is turned on. I have been reading alot on the internet about such problems with this vehicle and am getting really concerned. If it were the harmonic balancer would the vehicle still be operating this length of time since it started making the noise? What does replacing the harmonic balancer involve.
View 8 RepliesPassat (B5) :: 2002 GLX Won't Start - Clicking Noise When Key Turned
Just got back from the supermarket. Unloaded groceries and my Passat wouldn't start when I went to park it. Turned the key and it just makes a clicking noise - clock and trip odometer reset themselves also. If I turn the key the car just makes a clicking noise and the lights on the dash all flash on and off.
I am going to see if it starts after being jumped in a few minutes.
Other potentially useful info - I was testing a radar detector for work the other day and it has a battery voltage meter. It was reading in the 11.0 - 11.6 volt range. Is this too low - just wondering if the alternator was not supplying a sufficient charge. Not sure how accurate these are. The battery was changed around a year ago so I'm sure it's not the battery. I am assuming starter or alternator.
Golf IV R32 :: Clicking Noise After Turn Signal Turned Off
So the other day driving to work i was driving my car to work, i put my turn signal on and after i turn it off it still kept doing the clicking noise. At first i thought i was just hearing stuff cause it was early and i was tired, so after work i checked it out again i sure enough it was doing it. It even does it sometimes without even first putting the turn signal on. My buddy and i thought it was a relay or a fuse. Is that right?

View 4 RepliesCamry :: 2008 - Clicking Noise When Turned Left / Need Replacement Of Hub And Bearing
I have an '08 Camry LE 4cyl with 80,000 miles.
I was hearing a clicking noise when I turned left. Which I thought was the CV joint, but turned out to be worn struts. Then I began hearing a roaring sound from the front end. I replaced the struts & that fixed the clicking sound but not the roaring. So I thought maybe it just needed an alignment. I took it to dealer After fixing that one they call & say right one was so loud they couldn't hear that left one was roaring too. So they say I need to replace that hub & bearing also.
Are these issues happening very prematurely? What could have caused these problems?
Lexus GS 2006-11 :: GS300 Rapid Loud Clicking Noise When Car Turned On And Engine Won't Start
I own a 2006 GS300 for 4 years and I have about 90k miles on it. Just suddenly today when I went to go turn the car on, I hear a rapid loud clicking noise and the engine will not start. I've done some googling and one possible solution is to disconnect the battery to let the car reset and then connect it back. What the cause is? I've replaced the spark plugs a few months ago, but I didn't replace the battery.
View 13 RepliesCavalier - Chevrolet :: Decreasing Output From AC Or Heater During Long Drive
My 2000 Chevy Cavalier LS has approximately 216,000 miles on it. I've recently noticed on long drives that the air conditioner will run fine for the first few hours, but then the amount of air begins to decrease, until the output from the "high" setting acts like I have it set on "low", and then almost quits altogether. What little air is coming out is still cool, so it's not a problem with the freon. If I shut off the a/c for awhile, everything works fine again upon restart, but then the same problem occurs. I have the same problem when using the heater, so I think it's related to the blower motor, resistor, fuse, etc., but don't know where to start troubleshooting first.
