View 14 RepliesGolf IV / Jetta IV :: Front End Clunking When Side When Accelerating / Decelerating
I am currently having a clunking noise coming from the front driver's side when accelerating from a stop or decelerating to a stop. It seems to happen only at low speeds and only on the driver's side. No strange vibrations or noise when turning or when going over bumps. I am thinking strut mounts or possibly trans mount.
View 24 RepliesGolf IV R32 :: Choppy Whining Noise While Decelerating In 1st Gear To A Stop?
Quick description: every part of any acceleration in any gear is completely normal. My only problem is when I decelerate downhill in 1st gear to a stop I get a whining sound up front that is choppy and sounds like it is coming from the center of the car, like transmission, ???
I am at 85k and replaced my transmission oil and rear diff. w. Amsoil 75w90 at 60k miles.
Some of the old posts question why I would be engine braking in 1st gear. It is because I have to "coast" out of a 6 floor parking garage. I never noticed the trouble at all because I am usually coasting in 2nd gear or neutral, but someone in front of me was extremely slow so I stopped and went to 1st gear then heard the noise. Like I mentioned, it only happens downhill (not under load).
Sound = "rum rum rum rum..." decreasing with speed as the car comes to a stop.
It's not a CV or wheel bearing because it only does it in 1st..
Golf IV / Jetta IV :: 2004 GTI Makes Noise While In Gear And Decelerating
My 2004 Golf GTI VR6 6-speed manual makes a louder than usual decelerating noise while in 2nd, 3rd, and 4th gears. If I give it gas it doesn't make any noise but once I take my foot off the pedal it makes a louder than usual decelerating noise. It sounds almost as if something is maybe grinding but I'm not sure what it is. One mechanic said it may just need to be serviced (new transmission fluid). I've read some forums saying it may be the bearings or maybe need a new transmission. The car runs fine otherwise and there aren't any problems shifting up, it shifts really smooth. '
Its only when I downshift that I hear the noise. The noise is the same no matter if I'm turning or going straight and and it's in neutral, there ISN'T noise. It's only while in 4th, 3rd, or 2nd while decelerating. Even if this is a common problem with VW's how do I fix it?! The previous owner said it's been the same way since he's had it and it has NOT gotten worse and his mechanic said it was nothing detrimental to the car so he left it that way. The GTI has 130K miles on it and runs strong, that's the only problem it really has. I'm not sure when the transmission fluid was last changed so that could be a possibility. Going to possibly try that in a few days and see what happens.
Golf/GTI VI :: 2012 - Loud Deep Bass Thump Sound When Decelerating
On the way to work this morning in stop-and-go traffic, I noticed a new, weird noise from my week-old 2012 GTI with less than 500 miles on it.
The noise happens when letting of the gas in gear. Doesn't matter what gear you're in or what the engine speed is. Around a second after getting of the gas, there is a loud, depp bass thump, almost like a subwoofer hit from a close-by car. That's what I originally thought it was, but later determined it's something from my car.
What it could be? An exhaust noise? Something hitting? Is this a common noise on the new GTIs?
Camry :: Gen 5 XLE Thumping At 10-20 Mph Whether Accelerating Or Decelerating
I drove my wifes car today for the first time in forever, and I noticed that it makes a thumping sound between 10 and 20 mph. It does it whether I'm accelerating or decelerating, and it makes no difference whether I'm turning right or left. The car has 60K on it...
View 7 RepliesPassat (B6) :: Clunk When Accelerating And Decelerating
The vehicle in question is not our 2006 Passat
Car in Question:
2010 CC 2.0T DSG
12,4xx miles
I have noticed that when accelerating and decelerating I feel/hear an annoying clunk. I remember reading about this issue when I was reading this section all the time when our '06 was new, but when I went back and searched there only seemed to be people complaining and no real solutions to the issue. It really is hard to describe, but it seems to happen when slowing down the most, say when approaching a speed bump. I notice that if you apply the brakes longer ahead of time the clunk is less frequent, but its not like I wait until 3ft before the bump and slam on the brakes (also when decelerating into a slow corner/highway on-ramp).
I experience the same clunk when accelerating, usually when using more throttle than less; again not flooring it or anything too aggressive. One more example where I feel/hear this a lot is when coming home; I have a long narrow driveway w/ a garage at the end that I back into everyday. When I stop and put the car in reverse I get the clunk, but not until I press the throttle slightly. One weird thing is that I notice this clunk more when I have been in the car longer, with more stop and go traffic, in and out of stores etc. I have felt this on our '06, but not to this level
Some may say that I my problem could be solved by being more gentle on the throttle, but in all honesty I think I use it normally. There should be no clunk no matter how aggressive I am.
When I was at the dealer for my 10,000 mile service I mentioned the problem to the tech and they said they would take it for a test ride and report back. They told me that it was under normal operation and that the sound I heard was the DSG transmission going into and out of gear. I do know what they mean about the DSG, but this is a different problem, and if that was the case I wouldn't hear the clunk in instances such as reversing into my driveway.
Tiguan :: Subtle Clunk When Accelerating Or Decelerating?
I have a 2011 Tiguan S automatic. If I'm coasting around 20 mph and hit the pedal, I can feel a clunk or catch type feeling. It also happens when decelerating and down shifting around slow speeds. I know this has been discussed before, but no outcomes were stated.
View 1 RepliesCamry :: 1992 V6 Transmission Clunk When Decelerating / Accelerating
I had the front engine mount replaced on my V6 - 3VZ and most of the what I call a clunk has been solved but when traveling at most speeds and taking my foot off the accelerator the transmission seems to clunk and when I reapply acceleration it clunks again. Its like the transmission has to catch up or decrease to the engine speed......my way of describing it!
The mechanic who replaced my front engine mount talked to his friend in the transmission business and they feel it may be a chain in the transmission that is stretched (like a bicycle chain) and the slack causes the clunk. I have never heard of a transmission using a chain, however, I have no clue. Is there a chain? If there is, can it be tightened? If there is not, is there something else that can be tightened? What can I do to eliminate the clunk?
The fluid was changed last year and is red. We are retired and can't afford a transmission rebuild. Everything else is in good shape on this 1992 with 229,000 kms. at this time.

View 2 RepliesLexus LX 2008+ :: Vehicle Vibrates Whether Driving, Accelerating Or Decelerating
I have just purchased a brand new LX570.
I can only explain that the vehicle vibrates. Whether driving, accelerating or decelerating there is a constant vibration just like driving on a poor road surface. We have superbly flat and new Roads in Dubai, and I drive them every day in my 2 other (far less expensive) 4WD's and I do not feel shaken, stirred or positively nauseous. The only time u feel at ease in my new Lexus is when I am stationary. Transmission also occasionally lags and I can feel the gear changes, sometimes a judder and a bit of a jump as it searches for the gear. Take off is sluggish (i know it's a big car!) but I feel it's not good enough for the car that it is supposed to be.
This is my first Lexus. I opted for the full top of the range with s few extra options and a big spend. This is certainly not the car I was expecting and it is definitely not the Lexus experience that I thought that I would get. What is the problem with vibration? The whole body shakes ( not the steering wheel) albeit mildly, it vibrates almost constantly. it is simply not a smooth drive.
The Lexus service centre has changed all the tyres at 100 km claiming flat spots due to transit and storage. The car now has 300 km on the clock. It's not the tyres or the alignment. They claim to have run full diagnostics but found nothing. I can't believe that his issue is on my car only. I have taken 2 other drivers out and they agree with my concerns, something is definitely wrong.
Ford - Electrical-wiring - Focus :: Lights Dim - Pulse Down When Accelerating / Decelerating Always
2004 Ford Focus ZX3. Manual Transmission. Alternator replaced 1-2 years ago for different symptoms/issue.
My problem is that the headlights dim or flash (pulse down to very very dim then back to full) when accelerating or decelerating. Pretty much only when in gear.They will go back to normal when I depress the clutch pedal (usually I think) or am coasting in neutral. The fan in the car and other electrics/indicators seem to suffer from same power fluctuations too.
A little while after seeing this, I noticed a faint then more pronounced clicking coming from left side of dash. (Fuse/relay box?) It seemed to click when the "shift" light would pop on and off about 20% of the time the light did. Otherwise mostly when accel/decel.I started pulling relays and driving around a parking lot to see if it was one. The click seemed to disappear after pulling the horn relay. (And not the "Battery saver" relay next to it. Odd) The clicking issue does not happen all of the time when driving. The power dimming does.
Honda Civic Hybrid :: Squealing Noise When Braking / Accelerating Or Decelerating
We have a 2005 honda civic hybrid; there is a squealing noise coming from front passenger side, when braking, when accelerating, decelerating, but not while driving at speeds of 30 mph, straight. Also when backing up, turning wheels. It's going to the mechanic on monday for regular maintenance, 100K miles, etc.
View 3 RepliesFord F-150 (2004-2008) :: Shuttering / Sputtering At 40 - 60 MPH After Decelerating And Slowly Accelerating
I recently bought an 04 lariat crew cab with 56K miles 5.4 and auto trans. Before i bought it i complained about an exhaust noise and acceleration issue at 40mph and 1100 rpm as well as the ac not being very cold. They replaced the exhaust manifold on the passenger side, coil pack on the #3 cylinder, a transmission flush, a flash drive update and recharged the ac. This seemed to take care of the problem but i mostly drove under 30mph and did not notice it. I took it on a few road trips, and country roads and noticed the problem of sputtering and shuttering between 40-60 mph's after decelerating and slowly accelerating. The problem occurs consistently with ac and over-drive on in the above mentioned conditions and mph range. Problem is less noticeable with ac off and have not noticed it at all with over-drive off. It feels like a limited slip kicking in or driving on dry pavement in 4wd. Tranny shifts fine through all gears in a straight pull of acceleration and even full throttle pulls. Problem only occurs after decelerating and slowly accelerating. I don't know of any codes as I don't have a code reader, but I have not had any check engine lights come on nor has the dealer mentioned any codes.

when i accelerate or let off the peddle I hear and aloud thug or dull bang. I've checked and greased all the u joints. Disconnected the carrier bearing and separated the drive shaft and greased it up. Still get the noise I have very little play in the carrier bearing but I don't think that's the problem. It sounds to me like might be at the transmission. What do y'all think it is?
View 2 RepliesMazda :: 2005 Wants To Stall When In Low Gear / Decelerating
I drive an '05 Mazda 3, manual transmission. About a month ago, I accidentally killed the battery completely by leaving the trunk slightly open for a couple days. After getting a new battery, my car idles very noisily, making rattling noises, and constantly feels like it's almost stalling when driving slowly or decelerating. It only stalled entirely once, in a parking lot. My friend thought this was due to the ECU crashing and trying to figure things out, so we put the car through an ECU reset procedure, but nothing changed.
View 2 RepliesFord Transmission :: 4r70w - 4th Gear Shudder While Decelerating?
I just put a rebuilt 4r70w in my '97 expedition and it shifts good but in 4th gear when I let off of the accelerator it starts to shudder until it shifts to 3rd. It acts like it is freewheeling then catches on and off. My thoughts so far is that I don't have the digital transmission range sensor positioned right or the overdrive servo isn't working properly.
View 1 RepliesGolf/GTI VI :: Throttle Delay When Accelerating From A Stop And Early Shift Into 6th Gear
I recently purchased a 2012 Golf Sportline 2.5 auto. I also currently own a 2006 Jetta and 2008 Rabbit both 2.5 automatics. Both older cars run and drive great with this engine and tranny combination for me. However with the 2012 I really notice a throttle delay when accelerating from a stop and a very early shift into 6th gear when in the gear selector is in drive mode causing engine lugging. Shifts into 6'th at 60 kph doing 1100 RPM.
This I find is very annoying compared to my other two VW's which have better throttle response and shift a little later into 6'th allowing the engine to turn at 1400 RPM allowing for better acceleration without having to kick it down a gear.
I have taken it back to the dealer hoping for a ECM flash update but nothing is available from VW and my vehicle ECM has all other current settings and updates. I ve looked into aftermarket solutions such as the Sprint Booster which allows for a more responsive pedal but based on my other VW's my 2012 should not preform like this.
