Ford - Explorer :: 2003 - Loud Clunk When Put The Truck In Reverse And Once Hit The Gas
I am trying to track down where exactly a clunk is coming from on a 2003 Explorer 4x4(auto, hi, low). My buddy brought it by my house yesterday and i cannot pin point it. If you put the truck in reverse, once you hit the gas, it clunks pretty loud. If you just put it in reverse, let off the brake, it will not do it until you hit the gas.
I got the explorer up in the air and crawled under it. I had my buddy switch from forward to reverse, and back again. Every time he let off the brake in forward or reverse, it would clunk. The reverse clunk was definitely louder.
It does the clunks in all settings, -auto,hi,low. No flashing dash lights. The dash lights do come on accordingly. One thing he pointed out was the Auto,HI,Low Buttons themselves are not backlit anymore. Not sure if that has anything to do with it?
I cannot narrow it down as the whole transfer case, front driveshaft and front diff, shake with the clunk. U joints don't seem to have play (prying with small prybar). I then went ahead and unplugged the big wire connector at the transfer case and the clunk went away.
Ford - Explorer :: Vehicle Takes A While To Engage In Reverse With A Loud Clunk
I have a Ford Explorer that my mechanic says needs a new trany. The vehicle takes a while to engage in reverse and does so with a loud clunk. Otherwise it runs good. I have 198K mi. It's an "02 4wd. Their asking $2,100 for the rebuilt trans. Wondering if it's worth it? May have reached the end of the line on this vehicle?

My boyfriend bought a 1999 ford explorer, he put about 2,000 miles on it in four months... I believe it now has roughly 110,000... Now the other day, he was pulling out and shifted from reverse to drive, we heard like a loud clunk/thump noise... It shifts into drive, and revs but won't move, it feels like neutral... If you shift to second, first, or reverse it's fine... Tranny fluid is good... O/D is always engaged...

Ive got a 04 f350 that after u shift into 4hi or 4lo when u accelerate it it makes loud clunk noise in fwd or reverse hi or lo. With hubs unlocked it still clunks. Have checked, wheel bearings, axle U-joints, and driveshaft joints all good. So I am thinking I've got issues in t-case. Popped drain plug out and wow that dex merc 4 looks nasty. So thinking I need exploded view of transfer case.

View 8 RepliesGrand Prix :: 2004 - Loud Clunk While Having The Car In Reverse And Power Braking It
In my 2004 Comp G I have an extremely loud clunk when braking. The braking clunk does not happen all the time. There is a clunk while having the car in reverse and power braking it. While holding down the brake and revving hard and fast it make the loud clunk every time. It will not do it all the time in drive though. I can not pin point which side it is coming from. It sounds as if it is mostly the right. It almost sounds as if it is coming from inside the trans near the pan area?
I have replaced the lower control arms, sway bar bushings, stab links, struts & mounts, I have solid engine and trans and top mounts, new inner and outer tie rods, all wheel bearings, etc.... (not for this issue, just for performance/wear).
I am torn between thinking it is a cv axle or internal drive train noise.
Toyota - Dolphin :: 1977 - Loud Clunk When Shifting Into Reverse Gear
Sometimes when putting the vehicle into first it's almost impossible to get it to go into gear. Sometimes it's super smooth. Also when putting into reverse we hear a loud clunk. That one is most of the time but sometimes it goes in smooth. I was doing some looking around at the pedals because I think I am going to have to replace my master cylinder and noticed that on the inside of the vehicle where the clutch master cylinder comes into the vehicle it's leaking black fluid. Does that automatically mean my clutch master cylinder needs to be changed? Could this be the cause of it being difficult to shift because the clutch isn't fully disengaging?

I recently acquired an 02 explorer sport. Noticing a loud hum(similar to what knobby tires sound like) at 25-40 mph. Doesn't make noise at any other speeds. I replaced both front hubs, new shocks, new rotors and pads, sway bar links, even tried rotating tires, absolutely no change. Tires are a standard highway pattern , not luggy so I don't think it's those. Kinda lost on what to do next.
View 9 RepliesGolf IV / Jetta IV :: 2002 - Loud Clunk When Going Over Bump
I've had my 2002 Golf GLS for about a year now. It has 127k on it and I absolutely love it! Saves a lot on fuel driving 100 miles a day for work compared to my Ram 2500 diesel!
Anyway, lately ive been hearing what I can best describe as a "clunk" or maybe the sound of metal hitting metal when I go over a bump. From what I can tell it sounds like its coming from the front passenger side. Maybe the rubber grommit on the strut tower is gone? I havent really checked it out becasue I havent had much time on my hands lately.
Also, ever since I have had the car the engine seems to run louder than what I expected for a VW. It has the 2.0 engine in it. Is this normal? It kinda hard to explain how its running loud but when its at idle and I have the hood up it just doesnt seem as quiet as I thought a VW motor would sound.
Ford - Explorer :: 2002 XLT - Loud Squeak At Higher RPM
I have an 02 Explorer XLT with 164K miles. I am the original owner. Recently the passenger side of the engine compartment has developed an annoying squeak. The pitch is associated to the RPM of the engine. The higher the RPM the higher the pitch of the squeak. It seems to be louder near the underside of the front then near the top. I replace the serpentine Belt Tensioner and that did not fix it. The belt looks good, no cracks or frays, and I sprayed some belt dressing on it but it made no difference. What do you recommend I try next ?

I have a 2002 Honda Accord, manual transmission, 135k miles.When I reverse, turn the wheel all the way to the left or right, then accelerate (in reverse), I get a loud clunk from the front.

View 1 RepliesFord Excursion :: 2005 - Loud Clunk Or Pop Noise From Under Driver And Passenger Floorboards
I have a '05 4X 6.0 PSD... that has a loud clunk or pop noise from under the drivers and passengers floorboards. I've done A LOT to try and fix this noise... and know, it's definitely due to frame twist. As I can drive straight, on flat ground and it'll never happen. On a dirt road, with stutter bumps... still, nothing. When the road is off-camber, or I have an S-Turn the CLUNK will be there, and sometimes more than once (seemingly if the load change is enough).
If I'm off-road, and the road is off-camber or has my X articulating 1-2' in either direction side to side or diagonally, the CLUNK is so annoying, so bad, I think the X is going to fall apart.
So this past weekend, I had my fiance' roll back and forth (about 20') over a small dirt embankment, while I was on my hands on knees outside next to the running board. And boy... it's a LOUD clunk, and I can feel it on my feet in the X... or if I put my hand on the frame. But, for the life of me... can't find the culprit.
Ford - Explorer :: 1999 - Clunk Noise Then Steering Kind Of Locked Up / Tires Dragging
I have a friend who called me today, she has a 1999 Explorer Sport with over 200,000 miles on it. She said she was coming home the other day and as she was pulling into her driveway she heard a clunk then the steering kind of locked up, and it felt like a tire was dragging. She moved the truck later and said that it goes forward and backwards fine but grabs and skids while trying to turn.
She called her local mech, and he thought the diff could have given out on her and is basically acting like a locked diff rather than open.. I think the front axle must have somehow engaged, and is stuck.. So my question is this, how does the front axle on a explorer engage.. I know on Jeeps and Chevys there is an actuator that moves an arm that moves a sleeve that engages both sides of the axle. Does ford work the same way?? It would seem to me that if the truck is going front and back fine the diff itself should be ok?? The xfer case was replaced about 3 years ago.
Ford - Explorer :: 2007 XLT - Clunk Noise While Making Left Hand Turns At Slow Speed
My wife informed me about a noise coming from the chassis of her truck.
2007 Explorer XLT 4x4, 4.0 OHV, AT, 89,000 miles on the odometer.
We took the truck to dinner last night so I could investigate the problem. This occurs while only making left hand turns at slow speed.
There is a definite clunk sound AND feel. It actually sounds and feels like we are driving over a loose manhole cover, and IT DOES feel like metal to metal contact on the driverʻs sids of the truck.

View 1 RepliesFord Super Duty (1999-2016) :: Steering Wheel Jerk And Loud Clunk Noise
I took my truck to an alignment shop to have him look over my truck to find a steering wheel jerk and a loud clunk noise. He believes it's in the transfer case driveline. Said to remove the driveline then drive it around and see if it goes away, if it does then that's the problem. So to the question, how to properly take this out? Do I need to make marks with a paint pen anywhere to line things back up or does it matter?
View 14 RepliesFord F-150 - 1997-2003 :: Loud Popping Noise Almost A Clunk When Making A Slow Sharp Turn
Lariat stepside, 5.4L with 150k miles. Loud popping noise, almost a clunk, when making a slow sharp turn. Put it on jackstands and did the normal tire grab and shake and found no issues there. Tie rods, ball joints and sway bar links all seem tight. Looked for signs of unusual rubber to metal and metal to metal wear and found nothing. The only thing I did see was the rubber boots on the upper control arm ball joints were split. What I have checked or if I am missing something?
