Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: 2006 - Clattering / Rattling Sound When Let Off Gas

I have a 2006 Ford F250 super duty kingcab 6.0 with 6 speed manual transmission. It just started making a clattering sound when i let off the gas in 1, 2, 3 gear but not in 4, OD, in Neutral with or without clutch engaged or at idle. U joints and carrier bearing are good. I took it to a mechanic and he said it was the throw out bearing but the sound goes away when clutch is engaged?

Golf/GTI VI :: 2011 - Clattering / Rattling Noise At Low Gear Changes?

Ever since day 1, I noticed my wife's 2011 TDI/DSG make clattering/rattling noise during low gear changes (1st to 2nd and 2nd to 3rd gear), it sounded like a diesel engine's clattering/clicking but a little louder at gear changes. I mentioned it to the dealer at 3month/3k checkup and they test drove and say it's normal. Is it really normal?

Audi - A4 :: Belly Pan Loose Causing Clattering / Rattling Noise

The belly pan on my AUDI A4 is loose and causing a clattering, rattling noise. I looked under the car and it looks like all of the screws are missing..... Can I fix this myself?

I saw that a lot of places online sell the screws but pricing was a bit confusing and I wanted to make sure it's something I can fix myself.

Golf VI R :: No Start Up - Chattering / Clattering Sound On Push To Start

Today I tried starting my car (shortly after I drove it with no problems 2 hours earlier), and when I pushed the start button (holding it down firmly), it made this weird clattering-clicking noise (the dials on the cluster went haywire), but no noises were coming out of the engine, so there was not attempt to even turn the engine (wasn't the grinding noise from engine that you get if you don't hold down the start button firmly long enough). Thought it was the battery so tried to jump the car, but it wouldn't start immediately either. The AC/radio were all on while I was attempting to start the car - shouldn't be the case if the battery was dead???.

After about the 3rd attempt to start the car in the middle of the jump start, the engine started.

Anyways, got home, and then tried starting the car again and no luck. Does this sound like an issue with the battery (lights and AC and radio were all working fine), or perhaps the starter/push button? Has there been any recalls/TSB on anything related for the MKIV R?

Accent LC (2000-05) :: Engine Makes Clattering Sound At Cold Start

My 01 accent's engine makes a clattering sound(sounds a little bit like a diesel engine) when it's first started in the morning. After warming up (in about 20 seconds or so) the sound disappears. My oil level is normal(last oil change about 4k miles ago with full synthetic oil. I normally change oil at 5k intervals with full synthetic), timing belt changed about 1 year(20k miles) ago. Should I be worried?

Mazda - Mazda3 :: 2004 - Clattering Sound Coming From Left Rear Wheel

I have a 2004 Mazda 3 with 90K miles. Brakes, rotors, and rear calipers were replaced about two months ago. About a month after, I started noticing a clattering sound coming from the left rear wheel whenever I drove over rough road. (It sounds like an aluminum pot lid dropping onto the pot.) The shop that did the original brake work took 4 visits to get everything done. Instead of going back, I went to another mechanic who said the left caliper was loose. He showed me how he could shake it. He said the bolts were tight so it wasn't a safety issue.

I went back to the original shop for repair but they could not reproduce the noise and said the brakes/calipers were fine.

The noise remained. I went to a third shop which checked the caliper and said it was fine, but said that I needed new shocks. The mechanic had the car on the lift and was able to reproduce a similar noise on both rear wheels when he hit them with a rubber mallet.

The first mechanic insists the caliper is bad. The second insists it's the shocks.

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: V10 - Clattering Sound Coming From The Rear

My 99 super duty v-10 has 227,000 miles. It was a former UHaul unit but seems in good shape considering the abuse it's probably had! I recently started hearing a clattering sound coming from the rear.

Not just turning but in straight line. Very loud even at 2-3 mph, more pronounced in deceleration. I can best describe it as someone shaking a metal pail with about a half dozen lug nuts in it.

Previous threads point at the limited slip. I called the Uhaul after sales desk and he right away said put some friction modifier in and do figure. Eights in the parking lot. I did and The sound is still there.

One poster said the factory LS is garbage and not worth rebuilding. They mentioned the TruTrac as a good replacement and I guess I'll investigate that further.

Golf V R32 :: Car Developed Rattling And Squeaking Sound

When i first got my MKV R32 it was such a great handling car. I was able to got very fast on curvy roads with not even a slight bit of skid or squeal. Now its developed this rattling and squeaking sound. I feel the bumps in the road more, i notice more body roll, and alot of vibration in the steering wheel, and what pisses me off the most is i hear more squealing on turns that i used to be able to take faster with no squeal. For example i used to b able to take this turn at around 75mph no peel, now i started peeling out at like 63. (my tires have alot of tread) when i got the car it had around 17,000 mi on it now it has 31,000 mi.

Golf IV R32 :: Rattling Sound Like A Heat Shield

I have a major rattling sound from under my car... it sounds exactly like a heat shield. I have been up under my car 5 times and I can not find a loose shield anywhere. the cat insulator mesh is still in perfect condition and it now seems the sounds is coming from somewhere in the back of the car, perhaps the muffler area.

This car does have the flapper mod done... could there be something inside the muffler itself? the car only has 40k on the ODO and I have not hit anything or do not have a dented muffler. As a fellow VW'er I do not want to be the only one running around town rattling...

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: Rattling Sound Under Car When Release Off Gas

Just today i was driving along in my 2.0L golf when I started hearing a rattling coming from under the front end, its a hollow sound that only really is loud when i step off the gas after accelerating, and a faint little rattle when I am idled. I wasn't too bad at first but now its to the pint where i get no exhaust sound coming out of my muffler, currently I have a 2.25" Magnaflow cat-back exhaust system, so I am pretty certain it has to do with probably the resonator or the catalytic converter. Where I can start?

Golf/GTI VI :: Rattling Sound When Idle If Rev Needle Is At 800 Rpm

Car: Golf Mkvi tsi (122hp/90kw) 7DSG Highline/GT
Mileage:8500km

My car started giving a rattling sound when idle 2-3 months ago. If the rev's needle is at 800rpm that woody woodpecker sound comes from the backseats (or maybe not, it's hard to tell). I slightly press the gas pedal and the sound's gone.

I remember the car to be dead silent during the first months, like omg i can hear my heart beating.

Golf V R32 :: Rattling Sound Above 3000 RPM From Underneath Passenger Seat

Having metal-on-metal loud sound coming from underneath the passenger seat (basically) at higher rpms? It sounds like it might be a heat shield or loose piece of the exhaust but I looked underneath and saw nothing out of the ordinary. It seems to be getting worse, so I am assuming its not supposed to sound this way.

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: 2001 2.0L - Loud Rattling Sound When Started / Bad Alternator?

So im trying to diagnose my girlfriends issue with her car. When she starts it, the car will make a very loud rattling sound, not really grinding, but like metal on metal contact. Sometimes the sound goes away, but when the car is cold it is a guarantee. The battery light is also on, which was not the case when the rattle first started. I first thought (and hoped) it was perhaps the serpentine belt tensioner as I researched that when it fails it can make a loud rattle sound.

Once replaced, the same issues occurred. So I went ahead and put the old one back on since it was not the issue. Note that the old one and new one both shared the same tension applied to the belt and the pulley was still smooth without issues.

Using a stethoscope to try to determine the location of the rattle a bit more precisely I found the noise to be coming more from the alternator. Weird because I recently replaced it within the last year. I went ahead and removed the tension from the belt and played with the alternator for a bit. The clutch felt good when i used a screw driver to hold the fan and tried to move the pulley. One direction moved with ease while the other direction refused to budge, perfectly normal as I researched. The thing that I noticed that I thought was unusual was the fact that the shaft of the alternator had some play (Video below).

The belt has plenty of tension on it so i do not believe that it is slipping on the alternator. I push the belt with the tensioner engaged and the tensioner does not budge.

I decided to measure the voltage coming off the alternator with the car running and it was at 10.95 which im pretty sure is very low for these cars.

Golf/GTI VI :: 2012 - Rattling Sound On Driver Side Over Small Bumps

I recently lowered my 2012 Beetle with HR super sport springs/stock struts.. So this annoying tin rattling sound has come out. I just replaced the strut mounts thinking they separated like they are known to do. Sound Still there. Now my thinking either it is the sway bar end links being too long or possibly I have aftermarket wheels and aluminum hub rings it could be rattling over small bumps? Could it be the strut bearings? I've been over everything that I can think of and nothing is loose.

Golf/GTI VI :: Creaking / Rattling Sound When Turning A Corner Or Entering A Parking Lot

So I recently traded in my '09 GTI for a 2012...and noticed that the same door 'creaking/rattling' sound is on the new one as was on the older model. This happens if I am turning a corner, entering a parking lot, etc. Not a huge deal, but annoying nonetheless.
