Chevrolet :: 1991 - Loud Tapping Noise Under Passenger Dash
My 91 chevy 2500 has a fairly loud tapping sound under the passenger side dash, I used a mechanic's steth-a-scope & think i narrowed it down to left of the blower motor on the inside of the firewall. The clicking/tapping occurs every time the ignition key is turned on for about 10 clicks turn the key off & it repeats the 10 clicks again. Its consistent & very annoying.
View 2 RepliesSonata I45 (LF 2015+) :: Tapping Noise Coming From Dash To The Left Of Steering Wheel
When I shut the car off and just sit in the car, I hear a very odd tapping noise coming from the dash to the left of the steering wheel. It taps 3-4 times, stops for 20 seconds, and taps again 3-4 times. This process repeats a few times and then stops completely. What on earth could it be? I'm thinking its a bad relay or perhaps the car is possessed. I'm not sure I could reproduce for the dealer.

When I am driving under 40mph with my AC on there is a constant knocking noise behind the dash, actually sounds like someone is back there knocking constantly. Every once in a while it will start squeaking. Its loud enough to be heard even with the radio on. Kind of embarrassing when someone else is in the car. My dealer doesn't know what it is and its driving me nuts!

I"m getting a tapping sound coming from the dash. It happens every time I start the car(hot or cold engine) and lasts for about 10 seconds. It also happens when I adjust the fan speed for the heater/AC, NOT when I first turn the blower motor on. The noise was completely gone after I removed the heater fuse.

Any pointers on tapping the rear view mirror to power a dash cam (or a radar detector) in a 2013 LS? I want to avoid running the wires all around to the power plug. As much as a read, prior to 2013 have a little plastic thingy on a mirror that slides out, which makes it easier - the 2013 is all enclosed.

I have an 2005 VW Touareg. I purchased it 1 month ago with 8919 miles on it. I love the thing! However I have a rattle coming from the part that is below the passenger dash. The good thing is it only rattles when i hit a big bump, however when u pay 30k + this is the last thing you want to hear. See Pic. How to remove this black panel so i may fix it? Dealer was no luck the typical "I didn't hear any rattles" ....
View 1 RepliesMercury - Grandmarquis :: 1997 - Interior Lights Staying On / AC Making Tapping Sound Behind The Dash
I've been having a problem with some of the interior lights staying on and killing my battery each night. The lights that stay on are the climate control lights, gear shift light, and the lights on the door for the windows and locks. Every time i have to crank up i have to get it jumped off. If i pull the fuse out for the tail lights i no longer have the problem. I was wondering does it have something to do with the lighting control module or maybe the headlight switch.
I also have been having a problem with the a/c making this tapping sound behind the dash. Even with the a/c off you hear this constant sound as long as the car is on. I have no clue what is going on...
Touareg :: Climatronic System - Tapping / Flapping Sound From Front Passenger Side
I purchased an '07 Touareg within the last 30 days. Right after purchase, I began to hear a tapping/flapping sound from the front passenger side, seeming to be somewhere in the dash.
I currently have it at the dealership and have been getting mixed answers. First they thought it was something they could fix and today I was told that it was a "normal sound on a Touareg".
Camry :: 2AZ-FE - Tapping Noise Under Load
YouTube ....
Not my car in the link but it sounds very similar (can be heard better 4 seconds into the video). Noise only under load, in Drive and in Park, does not go away when warm. Definitely coming from cylinder 4 after removing spark from each cylinder to test. 152k miles. Drives excellent, no loss of power, no vibrations, no codes. Just purchased car. In excellent condition and price was right, so decided not to pass on it. I'm also in the auto repair field, so fixes dont cost me an arm and a leg
Would too much cam lobe clearance cause this loud of a noise? and would valvetrain issues cause a noise only under load? I just read on the complexity of doing a valve adjustment on these engines. Removed the valve cover and saw nothing abnormal or no significant signs of wear
Any other common taps/knocks/noises associated with the 2AZFE?
This is my first ownership of a vehicle with the 2.4, and am surprised to see all the reports of failed engines and at not even very high miles. I thought it was more reliable.

View 1 RepliesCamry :: 2007 Toyota - Loud Tapping Noise While AC Is On
In my 2007 toyota camry, 4 cyl, W/ 120K miles, I have loud tapping noise while the A/C is on. Noise is only heard when the car is idling or when coming to a stop light. No noise when A/C is off.
Its sounds like the tapping noise is coming from top end of the engine. Engine shakes also while noise is present.
To me it sounds like piston slap which I am going to try to isolate it by running high octan gas. Personally I don't think its piston slap.
Maintenance stuff done: ireduim spark plugs, air/ cabin filter, drive belt, water pump @ 60K, oil change every 5K.
Problem 2: Also is there any fix for Radio AUX noise in speakers beside Toyota TSB on it. Getting electrical noise in the speakers through cellphone when its charging through car power outlet.
Camry :: 2.4L 2008 - Tapping Noise While In Gear And Stopped
My car ( 2.4L 2008 Camry ) is making a tapping noise while in gear and stopped. If I rev it slightly, start moving, or move it out of gear the noise will go away.
I was able to trace the noise to the hard pipes attached to the radiator for the transmission cooler. In particular the ~6in one that runs towards the center of the radiator.
A part of the body directly below the hard pipe was slightly bent up and hitting the hard pipe.
A quick way to verify this is the root cause of your noise is by getting a buddy (or chocking) the wheels with parking brake engaged then put the car in gear and manipulate the radiator. Be very careful when doing this I am not responsible for property damage or bodily harm due to this troubleshooting technique.
Pressing down on the top rubber isolators or putting some pressure on the fan shroud should stop the tapping noise.
On my car I persuaded the metal and added some foam strips to prevent to noise. If I press down on the radiator it sometimes will comes back. If this bothers me more I will need to pull the radiator and do a more thorough examination.
Lexus GS 2013+ :: Knocking / Tapping Noise As Car Warmed Up?
Just got my 2013 CPO GS350 and love it. I did notice this morning a tapping or ticking noise, like a diesel engine would make, as the car warmed up. Anything to be concerned about or can that be normal for a GS? Also, are there any recalls or TSBs I should check into for this car?
View 14 RepliesMitsubishi - Lancer :: Knocking (Tapping) Noise When Pushing Gas
I have a Manual 2003 Mitsubishi OZ Rally Lancer. She was sitting for awhile due to the main cylinder causing issues for the clutch, which is now fixed. But I noticed the other day that whenever I press the gas there's a tap noise for a second and goes away, it happens every time I put my foot on the gas. The sound is like someone tapping there foot on tile floor. I can also feel the tap noise.
I'm not sure what it could be. I know the passenger front tire is tinking when I drive around, which I'm getting fixed this afternoon, but what could be causing this noise when I accelerate and how urgent would it need to be fixed?
Elantra MD (2010-15) :: Tapping Noise On Cold Start
Mine is just like this other owner's Elantra. Stealership say's "it normal". Surprise, surprise!
When I asked him how come my car wasn't doing it 50 miles ago and the 2013 loaner doesn't do it, his answer was "it's warrantied to 100k". I call BS. It's the timing chain tensioner or the the guides or both.
I say Hyundai knows about this and does not want to pay for warranty work because it's a costly job labor wise. Just like the Sonata's tensioner problems of the past.
