Ford F-150 - 1997-2003 :: EBrake Grabbing In Reverse When Disengaged

99 f150 supercab LWB 2wd 5 speed with 4wheel disc. I just replaced the rear rotors, pads, ebrake hardware and ebrake shoes. I have the shoes adjusted in as much as possible. With the e brake pedal disengaged and backing up, the e brake shoes grab the rotors and try to stop the truck from backing up.

I have lifted the rear end and pulled off the star wheel cover and turned it back as far as I can. When I rotate the tire forward by hand its fine, but when I reverse the rotation I can see the star wheel move abruptly through the hole in the backing plate as the brakes grab the rotor. What to do next?

I put the star wheel in the way the last one came out, could it be backwards, does it matter? I should tell you that currently I only have 1 side (drivers) ebrake installed because I am missing a piece for the other side that I can't buy. Will be going to a junkyard soon. This should not cause what I'm experiencing though.

Chevrolet - Impala :: 2002 - Transmission Was Loud And Taking Time To Shift - Can't Reverse

Ok so about a week ago I was driving my 02 impala and I heard a loud noise while driving at 30 mph and it lasted till about 50mph. well I had my dad take it down the road while I was at work about 5 days later to hear what the noise was wondering if it might have been a hub. Well I call him an hour later cause he ain't back he says he's at the gas station and it won't reverse. Well apparently the noise was just my transmission being loud cause it was taking a while to shift. I've never had a problem with my tranny but some leakage which I think is just the gasket I just know that theres tranny fluid under my pan on one side. So I went to auto zone and they got a code for p1811. So I'm wondering if it just needs a filter and gasket change or is my tranny gone. It still shifts into gears just takes longer in 2nd and I can't drive in reverse at all?

Problem 1 started in winter of 2010 and happens randomly : can't shift the car from Park, I have to try several times, this occurs more during winter but now I'm having the same issue in summer even with temperatures above 78 degrees F. I took the car to the dealer in 2010 but nothing was wrong they said.Problem 2, my wife threw the original key in the dumpster by mistake ( with the remote keyless), I have had a key made buy the dealer, this key opens the doors and starts the car but each time I look the doors, the front passenger door unlocks itself. Now I'm having this message ALARM SYSTEM SERVICE REQUIRED. The alarm is no longer triggered.

Volvo :: 1981 240 Wagon - Loud Humming At 45-55 Mph On Highway

I have a 1981 240 Wagon with 182K miles on it. When I reach 45-55 MPH on the highway the car starts to hum and roar. It is not horrible by any means but it has gotten louder over time and now the car kind of vibrates. At 60mph it stops and quiets down. Now I am unsure if I have a turbo or not and I feel like that could just be the turbo mechanism kicking in but I am not sure.

Volvo - V70 :: 1999 - Loud Engine Rattle All Of A Sudden

I have a loud engine rattle like there's a golf ball bouncing around in the engine. So far the mechanics have no idea where the knocking is coming from. Here's a video of the sound at idle. If you attempt to drive (or rev above 1500rpm) the sound becomes very loud and is then obviously undrivable.

It's a 1999 Volvo V70, 2.4L, non-turbo, automatic has 260,000km or 162,000mi

[URL] ....

Listen for the fuel injectors and the lifters. Under that there is a low, steady Knock. There is also a louder bang that is irregular. It sounds like I'm hitting the camera or the car but it comes from within the engine! First it's irregular then catches up with the engine speed. What those noises might be?

I was just beginning a road trip and all the fluids were checked. Engine has appeared to be fine for years. I pretty much only use Shell silver grade gas.I had filled up the tank 100 km prior.I had just changed the oil and filter 200km prior.Symptoms appeared as I was pulling on to the highway for the first time that day.

As I accelerated on to the on ramp (with four passengers) the oil pressure light came on.5km after that I thought I heard a low oil ticking so I pulled over to check and as I did, the engine really started knocking and whining. Checked the oil and it was full and later I found out there was pressure. Coolant was okay too. Turned the car on and oil pressure light never came back on. No check engine light.As I tried to get off the highway the knocking was so bad I could barely drive it. Probably should have left it. Got off the highway and called a tow truck.

The mechanic has drained the oil and found metal filings. He checked the timing belt and it is fine and hasn't slipped. No idea yet where the sound is coming from.

Volvo - 240 :: 1992 - Loud Clunk When Flooring The Gas Pedal

When I 'hit the gas' I hear a loud clunk or short scratching noise (definitely metal) before the engine starts revving up. I've researched the issue a bit but found no concrete answers. Motor mounts, timing, transmission issue? No one thing seems to cause it as far as I can tell.

I got my '92 Volvo 240 Non-Turboalmost a year ago and haven't really thought much of the noise, but I'm coming up on a 500mi trip to Northern California. I want to make sure it's in tip-top shape before I leave. [IMG]

Volvo :: 1995 850 - Brakes Heat Up With Loud Grinding Noise

I have a 1995 850. About a year ago, I suddenly had a loud grinding noise coming from my brakes. It only happened in hot weather and when the brakes seemed to be hot. Also, it only happened when I was coming to a final stop, like the last 10-20 feet. I took my car to my "trusted" mechanic. They diagnosed it as being my front pads and rotors, so they replaced them (they also felt the front vibrating.) NOW the brakes seemed okay after I got it back the second time (no loud grinding noise.)

When I got the car back, the weather was starting to cool since it was nearing winter. My winter weather is like 70's during the day, and during this time, there was no grinding. It's now starting to get hot again, and sure enough, that grinding noise is back, but not as bad as the first time a year ago. Again, it is only when the brakes heat up and I come to a final stop (the last 10-20 feet.) If I break lightly, it won't make that noise, and it takes me driving for about 15 minutes for the grinding noise to start (it sounds like metal on metal and loud.) Also, I don't feel the vibration like I did a year ago. I only drive the streets, and have not been on the freeway since I got the new brakes.

Touareg :: Loud Clicking Noise From Shifter When Running While In Park

I noticed today when my Touareg is running but in park, each time I step on the brake I hear a loud clicking noise coming from the shifter. I assume the noise is the safety lock engaging and disengaging that allows you to put the car in gear while the brake pedal is pressed. I never noticed the noise before but usually I have the radio on. Is it normal to be able to hear this noise?

Sonata I45 (YF - 2011+) :: Loud Thunk Noise When Shifting Out Of Park

I've got my 2013 sonata and have noticed over the past couple weeks that after the car has sat for a while and I shift out of park that it makes a thunk/shifting sound that's coming from right below the car. I think it's coming from the gear shaft but I'm not a car expert so I can't be sure, it's more prevalent when I shift into reverse. What it could be? The car is still completely under warranty so I'm fine with making it the dealer's problem.

Sonata I45 (YF - 2011+) :: Loud Popping Sound After Driving With Car In Park

I've noticed that when I've driven, park the car in the garage, turn off the engine, trans in park, a loud popping sound coming from the transmission (?) It sounds as if the car is clicking, popping into gear, although it's in Park. The garage is level and the car is not being moved in any kind of way. I sometimes sit in the car to finish a song or a phone call and I noticed this yesterday.

My GMC Envoy is making a loud reviving sound upon start up and while driving getting louder the faster I go. It also makes this noise while in park. I have Manuel transmission however it almost sounds like the car is in need of shifting to another gear... I'm hoping it's not an expensive problem!! There is no engine light coming on alerting me to a problem. It's a very loud revving almost whining sound.

Volvo - Xc70 :: Started Making A Loud Siren Noise In Rain

We were driving last weekend in a heavy rain storm when our 2004 XC70 started making a loud siren noise. The noise increased with acceleration. We pulled off the road, turned the car off. When restarted the sound was gone, but then returned again when driving in heavy rain. Any clues as to what is causing this noise and if it needs attention?

Volvo - V70 :: 1998 - Loud Whirring And Rattling When Put Car Into Drive And Start To Move

My 1998 Volvo V70R with only 53,000 miles (I'm the original owner) has picked up a problem. It started a year ago and seems to occur only when I do not let the car warm up for a few or several minutes: once I put the car into drive and start to move -- no matter how slowly -- a loud, high speed whirring sound begins. It will last for a minute or two and then stop. The speed of the whirring is constant and is not affected by how fast I drive or even if I come to a stop. It happens in both cold and hot temperatures. The whirring does not occur if I start the car and just let it idle and warm up. The loudness of the sound is such that it can be distracting to pedestrians 40 feet away. Changing the oil hasn't worked. More recently, the noise sometimes reoccurs in the middle of a drive. It always occurs when I start the car after it's been sitting for a few hours or more.

Volvo - Brakes - Lights - S40 :: 2002 - Very Loud Screeching Noise While Driving

I have a 2002 Volvo S40. I have recently noticed a very loud screeching noise while driving. It sounds like metal on metal, and it stops when I push the brakes. Any thoughts on what this might be? It sounds like it is coming from the front right tire. I also have heard rattling up there for a while (sounds like something is loose) but my mechanic was not able to find anything with this. I also have issues with my head lights. They go out about every other month and need to be replaced.

Camry :: 2002 - Loud / Brief Rattle When Shifting From Park To Drive / Reverse

2002 Camry, Automatic Transmission

Have an occasional problem. When shifting from park to drive/reverse, I occasionally get a loud, brief (1 -2 seconds) rattling noise from the engine compartment. It's my daughter's car so not sure yet if this is a cold start only issue or if present after car has been driven, then stopped and re-started. The problem does only occur occasionally. Where to start troubleshooting? I've looked for loose external pasts with nothing found.

Volvo - S60 :: Loud Siren Sound Coming From Engine Area In Heavy Rain

I own a 2004 Volvo S60 2.5T AWD. I have noticed that usually when I am driving and it starts to rain heavily, there is a loud siren sound coming from the engine area. This sound stays till it doesn't stop to rain. Also, if I don't step on the accelerator, the sound goes away. I have taken it to the dealership a couple of times but haven't been able to replicate the sound.
