Golf V R32 :: Metallic Scraping / Rattling Noise Coming From Underneath The Car
My R32 has got about 9,400mi on it, and for the past 3k miles or so, i've been dealing with this metallic scraping/rattling noise coming from underneath the car. When I took it to the dealer, they said it was the exhaust flex pipe, so they replaced it under warranty. Next day after picking the car up, same noise. So i took it in again this morning and they are saying its the flex pipe again, and they don't know if it is fixable.
They are talking to VW tech assistance, and trying to figure something out. I really love this car, but if VW says there is no fix for it, I'm weary about possible future issues without fixes too. Apparently it has something to do with the length of the flex pipes and the material its made out of. He was saying one possible solution is stiffer engine mounts. We'll see where this goes.
Prius (2004-09) :: Metallic Rattling Noise On Acceleration
While driving through a tunnel today I noticed a metallic rattling noise upon acceleration. It goes away immediately when I let me foot off the gas and when I park the car and rev the engine the sound does not occur.
A few days ago, I had to rapidly accelerate and it felt as though I lost power for a split second. I am not sure if these are related, but I am hoping its not some sort of transmission issue (unless that is covered under the hybrid warranty. What was the diagnosis?
Prius (2010-12) :: 2013 - Metallic Rattle Sound Coming From Back Of Interior
On the December day my 2013 Prius Five model (hatchback with all the safety add ons, bigger wheels) turned 18 months old, i was on the way to have one of the freebie services. I heard a metallic rattle, seemingly coming from the back of the interior. It continues and I cannot find a source for it. I just read a thread about rattles in the 2011s. Not particularly comforting given what I spent on the car.
Is this something I could have the dealer chase under the warranty? (this is the first new car i ever bought in my 50 years of driving, so my familiarity with new car warranties is a little thin.)
My dealer has been pretty responsive -- swapping out an interior door panel as a freebie when the armrest portion separated from the lower portion and collapsed into the door.
Prius (Gen 3) :: Metallic Rattle Noise Coming Under The Passenger Seat
Lately I've started having an intermittent metallic noise that has been bugging me. At first it occurred on long runs and sounded like it could have been the brakes or something similar. It is not too loud but is continuous, rather like gently rattling your set of keys.
It got steadily worse and I eventually tracked it down to the passenger seat. When I held the seat the metallic rattle stopped.
Ford F-150 (2009-2014) :: 2010 FX4 - Rattling Sound Coming From The Front Of Transmission Area
So I got this rattling sound like a piece of tin rattling underneath the truck, it is coming from the front of the transmission area. About 6 months ago the same thing was happening so I took the truck in for some other warranty work and had the dealership check out this rattle. When I picked the truck up I asked and they said it was rocks/gravel caught up underneath and they took them out and the rattle was gone. The truck is a 2010 FX4.

Elantra MD (2010-15) :: Light Metallic Rattling Only Occurs About 1 - 3 Minutes After Starting Car?
Tis the first of "Squeaks and Creeks" from me. Not really the best thing to hear, sitting at ~24K miles. Anyways, until (if) i can get a sound clip, I have this metallic rattle that only occurs about 1-3 mins after i start the car. This just started happening yesterday, and nothing out of the ordinary happened.
I start the engine, hear a raspy rattle from what sounds like under the engine, and if i give it some throttle it increases some, but not to the point where it sounds like something is banging around. It goes away after a few minutes so it could be anything. Shifts are still smooth, driving and getting on the gas does not fix nor make it worse, either in neutral or actually rolling. It simply goes away with 3 minutes time or so. It seems to have a limit for how much 'rattle' it gives off, and its something I can accept.
Passat (B5) :: Metallic Chime And Rattling Noise?
I am a brand new VW owner and new member of this site. Just recently I purchased a '02 Passat GLX 4motion (w/97k miles) for fairly good price knowing that it was involved in a rear end accident.
Now I am finding multiple issues with this car. It looks excellent from exterior or interior. I have three different issues (front and rear axle pinion seal leak, broken spring, gas leak only when tank is full) with this car but I would like to discuss the Broken Spring issue here.
When I go through rough road or bumps I hear a metallic noise (noise like key chiming) from the rear driver side along with a rattling noise (like wood or plastic board rattling) at the same time from the rear middle part of the car. I researched online and found few forums talking about the brake pad caliper spring making similar noises. I called a mechanic and I was told that it could be the muffler.
I took the wheel off and kicked and hit the axle area with rubber mallet, kicked the muffler - but no similar noise was produced. However I noticed that the spring coil (rear driver side) was broken right at the bottom. When I did online research I saw one forum talking about broken spring making similar noise. I did more research and found the part (OEM# 4B0 511 115 B).
My question is:
> Does this sound like what causing the noise? Could a broken spring cause metallic chime and a hard board rattling noise?
> Is it necessary to replace the spring along with the shock absorber? Can spring be replaced by itself?
> How hard is it to replace a spring?
> Do you have to have spring compressor to mount and unmount? Can you simply take the whole assembly without compressing it?

View 7 RepliesSubaru - Legacy :: 1999 - Metallic Rattling Noise
My '99 Legacy is far from quiet, but yesterday I heard a new -- and somewhat alarming -- noise.
Roughly two-thirds of the way through a four-hour drive, I started to hear a rattling or grinding sound coming from the front of the car, perhaps closer to the driver's side than the passenger's. It sounded as if a tin soup can or paint can were hitting the road, but when I popped my head under the car, nothing was hanging loose.
I hear the rattling sound as I begin to accelerate, and only when I have my foot on the gas -- when I let off, it's perfectly quiet. What I haven't been able to determine is whether the noise goes away after I reach a higher speed, or whether the sound of the usually loud engine drowns it out. The noise is most acute around 1500-2000 rpm whether it's in gear, or whether it's in neutral and I'm revving the engine.
Prius (2010-12) :: 2015 - Metallic Clank / Noise Occasionally On Random Bumps
So I noticed this when I had my windows down and the music off (or very low) for the past few weeks (at this point). About 3800 miles on the car, and maybe once or twice during a drive It is an occasional clank/ metallic noise that sounds like it is coming from either the left or right side depending on which tire hits the bump. But I can go over any number of bumps before and after with no noise at all, and it's not like I'm hearing it on just large bumps/ potholes. I've never heard it on any speed bumps.
I have a feeling it is when only one tire drops down a bit from a small bump, but that is only a feeling, and it's on small bumps. I tried looking up other threads on here for suspension noise, but mostly only finding things dating back to 2011 or so with brake caliper pins, possibly motor mount but nothing really recent.
Lexus GX 2004-09 :: Metallic Rattling Noise Going Over A Rapid Series Of Bumps
My truck is making a metal on metal rattling noise when going over undulations or the type of vibration when you drive over a rumble strip.
It seems to be coming from underneath the engine area, but not quite sure. The sound is like a kettle lid clanking on the actual kettle when the water's boiling if you can hear what I mean. No noise when just driving.
Prius (Gen 1) :: 2002 Pinging Under Acceleration And Sounds Like Something Metallic Is Rattling
I'm having a problem with my Prius. It pings under acceleration and it sounds like something metallic is rattling. It only happens when I use 87 and 89 oct. I use 91 premium to reduce the ping however, gas prices are rising and I want to go back to 87. There are no warning lights or anything and the ping has been happening for quite some time now.
View 3 RepliesPrius V :: Engine Ping (rattling Metallic Sound) Under Load
When accelerating up a steep grade the engine will ping (rattling metallic sound) when reaching a certain RPM, but stop pinging as I continue to push the accelerator down and increase the RPM. Should I be concerned? Could it be something else, loose exhaust heat shield or something? Or is this normal behavior for a gasoline engine? My old Honda Fit never had engine ping/knock that i can recall in its 200,000km of service running the same 87 octane gas.
View 15 RepliesFord Ranger / B-Series :: Rattling Noise Sometimes Kind Of Metallic Ping From Rear End
1988 Ranger, 2.9, 5 speed, 2wd, 7.5, 3.42:1, 190K or 290K on the odo.
I've been hearing this rattling, sometimes kind of a metallic ping, from the rear the last week. I thought it was probably the universal joints, didn't do it often, only under load between 1500-1900RPM roughly in second, third and fourth. I planned on working on it this weekend.
Today it started really making noise, sounds like valves rattling as though the timing was too high but it was coming from the rear end. It was making it all the way through the gears into fifth, even when cruising. Once it cooled down a bit it nearly went away.
I'm going to get started on it as soon as I can, but I can't get it in the shop to pull the differential cover and take a look right now. Dad's shop is full of crap, I live on top of a hill, not many safe places to get one up in the air properly. What is causing that sound?
Prius (Gen 3) :: 2010 - Grinding And Rattling Sound Coming From Right Passenger Side
Mine is 2010 gen 3 Prius. I bought it brand new and about 6,500 miles. From the beginning, I sometimes hear a grinding and rattling sound coming from the right passenger side. It is not from plastics. It is mechanical sound. But the problem is it does not happen all the time. So we were hesitant to go to dealer because they will never find it. But it got more frequent with cold weather.
Now, it does make rasping buzzing sound like a loose fan usually after I start a car in the morning and the heater is kicked in. I don't think it has something to do with fan because if I just run it itself in high speed, you cannot hear it. It is just some bad combination that makes this sound that makes you go crazy.
We are afraid that something big will happen after the warranty is over but as we expected the dealer said they do not hear the sound. The sound comes out in low accelerating and disappears in high accelerating. Now I really regret having bought Hybrid. It looks like the dealershop has no clue where to look at. I think the sound gets worse with the cold weather.

View 19 RepliesPrius (2004-09) :: 2006 - Rattling Noise Coming From The Engine Under Acceleration Only
i have been hearing a rattling noise coming from the engine under acceleration only. It isn't a super consistent rattle, seems to only happen when accelerating from lower speeds. And sometimes you don't hear and other times you do. It's not a bad rattle or knock it's more of a ticking/light rattling sound that is definitely abnormal.
I know my brake accumulator is barking at me and the 3 way coolant valve is going bad as sometimes I get a constant pumping sound. I don't think these have anything to do with it but thought I'd mention it.
