02 Santa Fe 2.7L AWD
I noticed the other day while out on the property that the rear wheels were not pulling and after a little investigation found that my AWD has now become a FWD. I checked the transmission fluid (not sure if the trans fluid even goes to the transfer case or not) and it was about a quart low but clean and not burnt. Topped the fluids off and still only have the front wheels pulling.
I was going to pull the rear diff plug and see what it looked like in there but I have a feeling it's probably froze in there and the bolt may break taking it off. I may have to wait till I can dedicate a weekend to working on it before I start tearing anything apart. The drive train is flawless and has been minimal effort since we purchased the vehicle new and all the sudden without warning this is happening.
Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: 2007 F250 Auto 4x4 Not Engaging - Rear Wheels Spinning / Front Did Not Turn
Yesterday I was parked on an incline with my front wheels on gravel and the rear wheels on wet grass/mud. When I tried to go, the rear wheels started spinning. I then switched on the low 4x4, and tried to go. The rear wheels continued to spin, but the front did not turn. I had new wheels installed, that has a cap that covers the manual locking hub, so I couldn't turn it to lock the hub. What should I look for to fix the problem?

I got stuck on ice. FrontWD. Wheels spinning off and on 10 minutes. Got towed. Front end was vibrating btwn 40 and 60 afterwards. Mechanic rebalanced tires and wheels, told me I had damaged wheels from potholes, burnt out the ABS sensors in front, overheated all the brake components, and needed new everything, pads, rotors etc. Brakes are 3 months old. I decided to wait. He put everything back on. No more vibration. Brakes seem fine. What to do?

I have a 2001 Volkswagen Beetle that has a rattle in the rear of the car over both wheels. It sounds like plastic on plastic. At first I thought it was the struts which I replaced yesterday, but the rattle still continues. It sounds like it's in the suspension system, because it only rattles when I drive over bumps. I checked the plastic boots that fit over the struts, but they feel firmly in place. Should I have replaced them as well? What should I be looking for?
View 1 RepliesBrakes :: 2001 Toyota Solara SLE (V6) Emitting Scraping Noise From One Of Rear Wheels
Recently my 2001 Solara started emitting a scraping noise from one of the rear wheels. Mechanic says its a frozen caliper, and suggested a complete brake job (rotar, pads, etc). My question is, I've got reasonable skills, by buddy has major skills when it comes to working on cars, is that something that a shade-tree mechanic can safely do ? Also, as its a frozen caliper, does that imply I need to replace the caliper, or could it have frozen due to the pads ?

So far I've been through 1 set of tires (after 12,000 miles), stepper motor, new cd changer, trouble with TPMS system and more Now that my stepper motor is replaced (dealer said he wasn't aware of any widespread trouble with this part, what a joke) I hear a humming noise, constant from rear axle area, drowned out by engine while driving. Noise sounds like a fan spinning or electronic interference you might get if your cell phone is close to a computer or tv with volume off. I don't recall this noise previously although I rarely drive this car it's my wife's.

View 5 RepliesGolf IV / Jetta IV :: Rear Passenger Side Wheel Wasn't Spinning
Upon putting on my winter wheel i was checking if the bolts were too long and my rear passenger side wheel wasn't spinning. I took the wheel off and checked the rotor and it took a lot of force to spin because the caliper didn't go back. I took the brake fluid line out hoping it would decompress the caliper and it did not, and brake fluid leaked out a tiny bit. This leads me to believe that my caliper is bad. Just want to make sure before I order another one
View 4 RepliesElantra XD (2001-06) :: Lower Control Arm Bolt Spinning
I just might be out of luck but wanted to check here first. My driver side lower control arm is dangerously rusted. I bought a replacement and was able to get everything undone except 1 of the 2 bolts that go into the sub-frame. The one towards the rear of the vehicle came out ok. The one towards the front of the vehicle just spins. I have read that it is probably a welded nut to the frame that has broken free and is just spinning inside the frame.
I have seen pictures and another thread on here (but for a santa-fe) where the owner had just drilled a 1 3/4" hole through the bottom of the subframe to grab that nut. Well mine is in a location that a 1 3/4" hole would almost be more than the width of the frame itself. So I thought maybe just a "slit" in the frame so I can get a open end wrench up there to grab the nut. I drilled just a test drill to see where I would land, sure that I would be past the end of the bolt. But I wasn't. I can see the threads of the bolt.

So it's dark out and very cold so I have done nothing yet to see if it is easy. However my '03 3.5 acts as if the rear brakes are stuck or the "E" brake is stuck. Put the car in in drive or reverse and you can feel the grab. Same thing in Neutral. Not sure what is really going on. Will get it jacked up in the morning.

My rear brakes keep wearing out extremely prematurely (2,000-7,000 mile intervals) and have been for 60,000+ miles. (No joke my mechanic has warrantied the rotors and pads over and over literally like 10 times) its the insides pads of the back that wear down while the outsides and front are fine...is the proportioning valve causing this problem or is it something else? We've changed the calipers and brake hosed

View 4 RepliesSanta FE SM (2001-06) :: Rear Seat Latch Release
I have an '01 Santa Fe and love it, except for the fact that I can no longer fold the passenger side of my rear seat. We recently moved and I guess one of the kids put the rear seats back up and didn't think to make sure that the strap that goes to the latch release was where it belonged, because now it's stuck under the seat. Actually, I think it may be stuck in the latch itself. My sis (a proud '05 SF owner) and I have tried everything we can think of to free it - it was actually quite comical to watch - but no luck. We can feel the strap but we can't get a good grip on it and can't really move it. It folds under the seat right where the latch is, that's why I think it's stuck in the latch.
View 4 RepliesSanta FE SM (2001-06) :: 2004 - Rear Suspension Squeaks
2004 Santa Fe, 2.4L auto, 133k miles that I just purchased. I've just been getting all of the maintenance up to par before driving it, I noticed the suspension makes a decent amount of noise when going over any kind of bump. The rear end makes a squeaking noise, which I think is from the trailing arm bushings. The trailing arms look like this:
When looking at the bracket where the big bushings goes, it looks like the arm is almost touching the one side instead of being centered like it should be. I'm thinking the bushing is just shot and allowed the arm to be pulled rearward. I know 01-03 had a recall for rusting trailing arms, but that doesn't work with my 04.
Other various creaking noises I'm thinking are coming from the sway bar bushings and links. Control arm bushings still look solid. Might replace the rear shocks if I have to with some KYB's.
Santa FE SM (2001-06) :: Rear Wiper Stopped Working
The rear wiper on one of my two 2004 Santa Fe has stopped working. Checked that the fuses are OK.
Then I swapped the wiper motor and then the control unit to the other Santa Fe & both work in it so are OK.
What else could be causing the problem?
