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.
Passat (B5) :: Faint Clunk Noise When Accelerating From A Standstill
I've been hearing a slight clunk when accelerating from a stop, a very faint split second clunk between in 1st year.
Last week, I pointed the noise to a technician at my dealer and he diagnosed it as the cam adjuster lurching backward as the car moves forward.
He replaced the cam adjuster and the gasket set (058-109-088-E, 058-198-217, and 058-198-025-A). When I got the car back, it seemed like he had fixed the problem. However a week later, the noise is back.
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...

I just had my stock clutch replaced with a South Bend Stage II, of the most recent generation.
It's making a weird noise, and sounds pretty bad... kinda like a rough TDI. It makes the sound when in gear, either accelerating or decelerating. There isn't any noise to speak of at idle.
The sound it makes is kinda like this: [URL]................................

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.
Golf 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 RepliesFord - 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 RepliesPassat (B6) :: Car Skips For A Split Second When Decelerating?
I drive about 25 miles to work each day usually at highway speeds (~75mph). At the end of my trip as I'm coasting down the exit ramp and starting to apply my brakes, at around 30mph my car 'skips' for a split second.
It's hard to describe...it feels almost as if I've hit a patch of icy road and the ABS kicks in for a split second, but it's a little more severe than the feel of the ABS system activating. I don't know if it's a rough transmission downshift or what...but very annoying and hopefully not a sign of worse things to come.
The car has about 14k miles on it. It's a 3.6L Passat Wagon.
Passat (B5) :: Jolt On Downshift While Decelerating
Every now and then (more often than not) when I am slowing down in my '05 GLX Passat, the transmission seems to throw it's self rather harshly down into first gear.
So, I'll be slowing down from an exit ramp off a highway to a traffic light and right before I come to a complete stop the car will jolt its self into first.
Is that normal? It happens more when I am slowing down at a quick rate, but when I am gradually slowing down, it usually won't happen.

View 1 RepliesElantra XD (2001-06) :: 2005 - Clunk When First Accelerating
I have a 2005 Elantra gt manual that I am having some trouble with. When I first get in the car to drive it after it has sat for any period of time it seems to catch the clutch higher before I start rolling, and once I start moving I get a fairly concerning clunk. I have had this issue for a while, and due to an unrelated issue I have recently swapped out the master and slave cylinder, and the clutch, pressure plate and flywheel all have less then 15k miles on them. After I start driving I do not get a clunk, even if stopped at a light and I have to shift to first and start moving again.
View 1 RepliesFord - Ranger :: Clunk When Shifting Or Accelerating
I own a 1994 Mazda B2300/Ford Ranger. Ever since I have owned it, there has been a slight "thump" when you let off the accelerator. Annoying, but for a cheap truck, I just ignored it. NOW, there is a clunk when I lift off, and when I hit the accelerator after shifting gears. There has been a loud "rumble" sort of sound for about two weeks, and I was told by a mechanic that I needed a "cat back" exhaust. Okay, but when I rev the truck in the driveway, it doesn't sound like the exhaust has issues. I DO get the rumble through the steering wheel and floor of the truck, and up until this morning, when I took the thing out of gear, or stepped on the clutch, the rumble sort of went away. Now, it doesn't.
View 4 RepliesPassat (B6) :: Hard Downshift When Decelerating From Higher Speeds
So I've had my B6 7 months now with no major problems (other than a blown head light bulb, which was repaired under warranty) - until now....
So when I'm decelerating from higher speeds (55mph +)...say for a stop light or to turn....around 30mph....my car occasionally shifts down hard. Not enough to make me stop driving and call a tow truck but definitely enough to make me to notice.
It's only when shifting down and it's just started in the past month or so. Before that the car has performed beautifully...shifting like silk. My car is a 2007, auto 2.0T with almost 20k (had 4k when I bought it). It happens when I decel slow or have to stop real fast. It seems like there's no rhyme or reason to it.
