not so good sound!
ok so recently my car has been making this noise when i accelarate around 2000 - 3000 rpms its like a klunk klunk klunk klunk. and now today i stated the car then and then i hear a nother klunk noise right befor the engine starts:(.
today im going to a shop to have my tie rod replaced and i will have the guy check it out but what do you all think it is.... it cant be denotation cuz i always run 93 octane in it. and the filter is clean and the maf is clean. and i haven't ran it hard for a long time. |
any one have some input
|
does the sound increase in frequency with the engine rpms or just make a clunk clunk clunk?
could be anything from a bad rod bearing to a loose exhaust. Gotta gimme some more info. |
basically when i accelerate it will make the noise but when the engine is at a steady rpm it doesnt make the sound. it only sometimes makes the clunk when i start the engine up. when i have the clutch engaged and rev the engine it doesn't make the clunking noise. its weird like to day it wasn't doing it that much. at first i thought it was the transmission. and my dad thought its a mount for the engine or trans. he thought that cuz of the "clunk clunk" sound it made when the engine turned over and started.
|
exhaust hitting something? Check to make sure you have at least 1/4" clearance on all exhaust piping and mufflers to surrounding parts. LMK if you find anything.
|
well i looked under there and there is one point where the x pipe is taping the place where the trans crossmember meets the body. i fixed that but i still get the sound when the car is in the low rpm ranges.
|
could be a loose cat shield, a broken cat, a motor mount going south (causing other stuff to rattle), or just excessive motor shake at low rpms. Does your car have an aggressive-ish idle or does it idle smooth with no real motor shake?
|
it idles smooth. and at idle it doent make a noise.
|
you got me. i give up.
|
might it be the tranny or clutch? cuz now it sounded like the clunk sound speeds up as the rpms and mph rises
|
had it checked out and they said it's the transmission
