Ford - Explorer :: Tranny Shudder / Whine Coming From Under The Truck When Turning Into Driveway
First off, I just traded another vehicle for a 97 mountaineer, 5.0 v8 AWD with about 171k miles on it. Runs and drives real nice, but on occasion under normal acceleration i get a slight shudder when it shifts into high gear. The tranny fluid does look and smell a bit old, but not burnt. I plan on changing it if you think it would fix the problem and not cause more.
Also, I think the ball joints are shot. The camber is in on the front tires and i get some pretty good clunks when I go over bumps in the road. Steering wheel is tight. I jacked it up and tried wiggling the tires but i couldn't get them to move like that. I'm assuming ball joints still though right? And if so, how hard of a job is that for a DIY'er?
Also i noticed a bit of a whine coming from under the truck when turning into my driveway. Transfer case I'm assuming? What could cause a slight whine and how do i fix it? I plan on changing the fluid in that too.

View 2 RepliesPrius (2004-09) :: Moderate Pitch Whine In Front End Only When Steering Or Turning Right
Have a moderate pitch whine in front end only when steering or turning to right. Gets louder w higher speeds but pitch is about the same. Thought it was a left front wheeling bearing. Also needed new pads and rotor. While doing the job noticed grease all over the lower ball jt. Discovered a tear in the outer axle boot. Net net replaced pads, rotor, axle hub assembly and axle complete. To my chagrin the noise has changed one bit. The noise also doesn't change when I put the car in neutral while traveling downhill. With the hope that I replaced the wrong bearing I have ordered a new one for the right passenger side. When I tried the 6-12 wheel rocking test on the right there did not appear to be any looseness.

About 3-4 months ago, I noticed a low-pitched "roar" or whine coming from the front of my 07, especially at 35mph and above. The pitch of the sound gets higher the faster I go, but its never a high-pitched squeal or anything, just a roaring whine that has gotten somewhat more noticeable as time has gone on. 184,500 miles on the car, Goodyear Assurance tires that will probably need to be replaced fairly soon but are certainly not bald, reasonable tread left. I bought the car with just under 160K, I've put about 25K miles on the tires, but don't know the car mileage when the tires were originally installed.
I had the tires rotated during an oil change about 6 weeks ago, which made little if any difference in the sound. I asked a mechanic I know (and trust) at the non-dealer where the oil change and tire rotation was done, he said to turn slightly left and right while driving to see if the pitch changes, which may indicate a front bearing problem. There was maybe a slight pitch change in the whine when I did that, if any. He said it might be the start of a bearing problem. I also don't notice any change in the pitch or unusual behavior when making turns.
So is this a tire problem or front/rear bearing issue? I'm going to take it to the mechanic for him to test drive, would I be better served going to a dealer? Given the car mileage, it could very well be a bearing problem, it would certainly be due.
Passat (B5) :: Loud Whine Coming From Steering Column After Service?
Sometimes I wonder why I have this car serviced....I have a 2000 Passat V6, just had the timing belt, water pump and infamous ABS control module replaced. Also had problems with the secondary air system (I think that's what it's called??) - another mechanic identified a couple of blocked areas and repaired. So now, all of the flashing lights are gone, but there is a very high pitched whine that is pronounced when I'm turning and sounds like it's coming thru the steering column? Goes away after about 20 minutes driving - should I take the car back??

I have some whine coming from my front wheel bearings so I'm going to replace them both. I'm not sure if this had been done on my truck before, but I'm thinking so since I have Moog greaseable ball joints.
Truck has 250k miles on it. I'm going to check the pads, rotors and slide pins. Anything else that might need work? I'm sure the half shaft could use a once over, but I don't keep my hubs locked so they don't turn much in regular driving.
Ford 6.7L Power Stroke Diesel :: Rattle In Left Front Wheel / Little Whine Coming From The Rear

I gotta a roaring noise coming from my right front while turning. Planning on replacing just the wheel bearings tomorrow & not the whole hub assembly(2008 2wd). Is there a thread that lays out the steps and other parts I may need? I've seen alot different stories on the net on how to do it. Everthing from I can press new bearings to I have to do 4x4 hub conversion. Seems to be some confusion.

I noticed over the last week that there was a pretty loud whine associated with turning the steering wheel. I checked the fluid level and it didn't seem low. I added a touch just to make sure. Took it into the dealership today and they called back and told me there's a bunch of fluid on the bottom splash pan. They haven't said what the culprit is yet. 46k miles on the car.

I have recently started hearing a knocking sound coming from the front of the car when i am turning. It does not happen with every single turn, but i notice it mainly when i am at a standstill and go to make a relatively sharp turn and give it a good amount of gas. Now I am not trying to do a burnout or fly off the line, but its not a grandma start either. slightly more enthusiasm than your normal daily drive start.

I originally own an mk4 r32 but my friend owns a 20th.. He recently lowered his car about an inch or 1.5 of an inch he might have a finger gap.. He is on jam coilovers all the way down in the rear and about 20 threads left up front.. There is a nasty sound coming from the front driver side when he is turning or going straight.. he still didn't do an alignment idk if that matters.. and he also miscounted the threads so his driver side is about two threads higher but he fixed that now.. he also doesn't have camber plates up front does this matter? he has 8mm spacers up front so he cant be hitting the coil.. also he never replaced his front strut mounts/bearings ...

View 6 RepliesElantra MD (2010-15) :: Clicking Sound Coming From Front Right Wheel While Driving Straight Or Turning
I have a clicking sound coming from the front right wheel, happens while driving straight or turning. My guy checked the cv boots, axle bolt, various other connections that seem fine. Then he takes a phrase out of Satan's handbook and says "take it to the dealer". I saw the horns on his head and the red eyes while he was saying it. So I made apt for next week. I don't think it's anything serious , Orr maybe it's something to do with the rotor, caliper, break pads ? Everything else seems tight.
