Elantra XD (2001-06) :: Airbag Light On - Gurgling / Crackling Faint Sound Coming From Engine Area
Hyundai Elantra 01 GLS. The main problem is that the airbag light is on and stays on no matter what. This is my girlfriends old car and she tells me that a couple people told her it had something to do with a faulty/corroded connection or something like that... I have been working on this car for about a year and I am finally to the point where I am just ironing out the little kinks. The old engine was bad along with a lot of other stuff, and I swapped it out for a good motor with less miles on it.
I also have recently replaced the alternator and instrument cluster just to name a couple repairs. Now the two things that I want to get settled are the airbag light and the check engine light. The check engine light comes on sometimes and I am almost positive it either needs a new 02 sensor or cat since when it was ran through a code reader those were the two options my mechanic told me it could be. I also hear a gurgling/crackling faint sound coming from the drivers side dashboard/engine area. I am not sure what this is. How can I get the airbag light off ?
Camry 2012+ :: Faint Noise Coming From Dash Tweeters When Key Is Turned On
My 2014 Camry LE has a very faint white noise sound coming from what seems to be the dash tweeters when the key is turned to acc or on. (Car is not started and radio is off) As soon as the key is turned off, the noise goes away. It almost sounds like the noise you used to hear playing a cassette tape back in the day between songs. (But the radio is off).

I finally bought our first Lexus - a slightly used 2007 RX350 (early VIN - manufactured in Feb. 2006). We are hearing some faint crackling/rattling noises from our instrument panel/steering column after applying the brakes with the car idling at a complete stop. It will crackle and rattle for about 15 seconds and then disappear until I apply the brakes again.
We had a 2008 RX350 loaner the other day and I didn't hear this noise.
Sonata NF (2006-10) :: 2009 GLS Dash Rattle / Crackling Noise When Going Over Small Bumps
I bought a 09 Sonata GLS in July, really nice other than dash noise, what has been described as crackle. Briefly, my sonata is makes crackling noise going over small bumps, more pronounced in colder temp. I have taken it in to the dealer 4 times, problem still persist. According to the dealer, Hyundai regional office knows of my problem, and there is no fix for it at this time. I just bought the vehicle and I am suppose to live with it?????

I have an '02 F350 PS. Recently I have been hearing a crackling noise coming from under the dash on the drivers side sometimes at idle but more often when driving. Th strange thing about it is that the noise stops as soon as there is any pressure on the brake pedal. The noise sounds electrical in nature but I can't be sure. I want to crawl under the dash to try and ID the source but it is not consistent and I have not been able to do so when I hear it. What it might be?
View 2 RepliesCamry :: 2008 LE Crackling Noise Coming Mainly When Run Over 80 Kms/hr
I have a 2008 Camry LE, I always hear a sound like the sound that comes from an Engine Pinging when you force it (Call it a metallic key chain noise or little crackling noise).The noise is coming mainly when I run over 80 kms/hr. It is not from the Engine I put the car in N and the noise kept coming My Engine has also been repaired by Toyota from the Oil issue, I thought first it is from the Engine. Turned left or right does not seem to make a difference. I am confused sometimes I hear it from the rear sometimes I hear it from the front depending on where I am sitting in the car when running at this speed, but to me most probably I hear it from the rear, it has been like this for over a year, took it to Toyota and they could not identify the source of the noise, they could hear it though. They asked me to bring it back if the noise got louder, to me it did not get louder but more frequent and almost continuous at this speed and gets really annoying.
View 2 RepliesLexus SC430 :: Faint Rattle Coming From Behind The Dash
I just got home from a 650 mile trip and I have pinpointed something I have been hearing for a while but couldn't figure it out. It's a very very faint rattle (something like the sound a hard drive makes) and it seemed to be coming from behind the dash. I experimented a little today and this is what I noticed.
It is actually coming from somewhere around the gas pedal and it only does it when you are neither accelerating or decelerating. In other words, when the engine is at equilibrium if that makes any sense. It's a tiny sound and I should just turn the radio on and forget it, but it's just one of those little things that bugs ya.
Passat (B7) :: Crackling Noise Coming From The Upper Trim
I have a 2014 VW Passat TSI 1.8, had it for about a year and have a little over 11k on it. Love the car, and have done a few mods to it. I am interested in replacing my standard rear view mirror with the auto dim. Is it even possible? I do not know if I have to plugs that I would correct my auto dim to because of my standard mirror. I do have the SOS as well, so I am not sure if that's all connected.
I also have a strange crackling noise that sounds like its coming from the upper trim of where the steering wheel is at. When I hols it down tight it seems to go away. It only happens when the car is warm.
Tiguan :: 2010 - Faint Rattle Sound Coming From The Center Of Dash - Fuel Line?
Has rattle that sounds like it is coming from the centre of the dash? It sounds like a piece of tin sheet metal is rattling faintly. I wouldn't think a fuel line rattle would sounds like that, but maybe I am incorrect? Putting pressure on the dash with your hand doesn't seem to make it stop.
We also get the creek in the l/h side that I had assumed prior that it was from the door seal when the body flexes.
Yaris/Scion & Vitz :: AC And Heat Blow Out Of Vents Regardless Of Direction Setting
2002 Echo, automatic, 190k miles, no troubles with it. My AC and Heat have always blown out the vents, regardless of the direction that I want them to come from. The dial that should send them through the vents, the dash, and at your feet doesn't really do that much to send the air anywhere except through the vents.

After almost 12,ooo miles, I'm starting to experience some kind of buzzing resonance that come through to the dash, console, and can feel it in the gas pedal. It's weird because it will happen when accelerating and decelerating too, but not it's not a constant occurrence. I wondering if the motor mounts are loose? The ICE runs great and the transmission seems to be operating as smoothly as ever. It's just odd that this started just recently.

I have installed tons of systems over the years and NEVER not once have i had to deal with something like this!
I have not even installed my amp yet!! this is going to be a serious issue if i cannot get this fixed!!
Its not a loud buzz, just loud enough where you can hear it though.
Camry :: 2006 - Faint Noise Like A Pebble Coming From Dashboard
Sitting idle with the break on or in park at times you can hear a faint noise like a pebble or something rolling, or what appears to be the noise of a mouse scratching in the wall.
When applying the slightest amount of pressure on the gas pedal it may or may not do it.
It never does it while driving, only sitting still every now and then or when slightly applying pressure on the gas pedal.
I didn't notice this until the last time my wife had the oil changed. I usually do it, but she went to walmart to have it done.
It's not a knocking or anything like that. Sounds like a mouse in the wall, lol and it only last about 1-2 seconds each time.
Chevrolet - Suburban :: 2002 - Faint Humming Noise Coming From The Rear
I have a 2002 suburban . I have a humming noise coming from the rear . It starts at 45mph and then goes away at 47mph. I hear it again between 60-65 mph then goes away . This is a faint sound . When pulling a trailer the sound is much more noticeable and more constant from 55-64 mph . When I let off the gas the sound is still there and fades as the truck slows. Am I dealing with a bad tire ( I plan to rotate them to see if that is the cause ) or a wheel or axle bearing ? To note I replaced the front wheel hub/bearings just about a year ago .
View 2 RepliesYaris/Scion & Vitz :: 2000 - Fuse Blown While Installing Aftermarket Stereo
I put in an aftermarket stereo. It has been a while since I have done that and somewhere along the wiring process I made a mistake and blew a fuse. I knew the lights around my speedometer weren't working but what I didn't realize is that my running brake lights weren't working, it took me about two days to realize this.
I fixed my wiring mistake and started looking for the blown fuse. I found one (I believe #19 inside the vehicle) and replaced it. This fixed my running brake lights and half of my instrument cluster. The lighting on the right side of my speedometer seems to work but to the left of it seems to be no light.
Also, I have an automatic car starter and before I jacked things up when I use to start it and the blinker lights use to come on and let me know that my car was running. I have checked the majority of the fuses(I believe all of them) and it doesn't seem that I have anymore blown fuses.

Lexus RX 2004-09 :: RX330 - Faint Tap / Knock / Tick Noise Coming From Engine
Lexus 3.3L RX-330 Engine Noise - Part 3 - YouTube
I am concerned with an engine noise.
5 months ago we bought a 2005 Lexus RX-330. It had 109k miles on it (now has 113k). There is a faint but noticeable engine tap/ knock/ tick coming from the engine. I think it has the 3.3l, 3gr-fe engine.
I have listed some observations:
The sound does not occur on startup, when the car is completely cold.
The sound starts after 5-10 minutes of driving or idling.
The sound diminishes and is almost imperceptible after another 10 minutes of driving.
The sound is only noticeable at idle.
The sound/tap seems to occur about 5 times a second at 600 rpm (idle)
The sound increases frequency with rising of rpm.
At approximately 2k rpm the sound cannot be heard.
If the vehicle is stopped after driving, allowed to sit for 5-10 minutes and then restarted, the sound will be loudest even though the engine is still hot.
The engine is quiet overall with exception of this sound. The fuel injector sound is the next loudest sound.
The sound doesn't seem to have gotten louder in the last 5 months but it may have gotten just slightly louder by my estimation.
I can hear the sound inside the vehicle and outside as well.
No other symptoms are present. I had the timing belt, water pump, idler and tensioner replaced as maintenance and as a possible solution to this problem right after buying the vehicle.
The mechanic heard the sound but told me he wasn't sure of the cause. He and I agree that it sounds like an internal engine noise. It is not a pulley, idler or exhaust sound. The mechanic told me not to worry about it and it was a normal sound. He also said to start troubleshooting would get expensive. I am still concerned.
Ford Ranger / B-Series :: Faint Rotating Squeaking Noise Coming From The Front Of Engine
I'm hearing a sort of faint rotating squeaking noise coming from the front of the engine; I can only assume that it's something with the belts. Nothing too pronounce cause I just notice it yesterday, anyway I was hoping I get another take on what this might be before I take it to the mechanic tomorrow.

I am experiencing a buzzing rattle coming from the left corner of the dashboard in the area near the horizontal speaker. It's not loud but it's annoying. It only happens when the car is moving. It doesnt seem to be affected by the audio system being powered on or off. The best thing I can think of to describe it the sound a Geiger counter makes, but not as loud.
