After going over a small bump in the road today , a rattle began to resonate from underneath the car (seemingly below the front seats). It could be easily heard and a noticeable vibration could be felt through the passenger floor mat. It almost sounded like something rubbing on the road, after...
I have been told that it is the belt tensioner (serpentine) but the sound does not appear to be coming from the tensioner. I can definitively feel some vibration when I place a screwdriver to the pulley bolt but then again I am not sure if this is normal. If the belt is removed can I start the...
When I go to put the old truck in first or reverse, the truck shakes and rattles pretty hard, but once it is in gear it performs perfectly, and shifting into second or third doesnt do it at all(maybe because I am moving?). The clutch doesnt slip and the gears all work fine so I dont know what...
I have a 93 Thunderbird with a 5.0L ford engine. It has around 140k miles on it, and runs great besides a rattling sound that comes from the engine when I accelerate hard. Usually when the car gets to around 3k or 4k RPM. I resolved this before by using high octane gas, and put in some...
When I'm at 750 - 1000 rpm i get a terrible rattle from under my truck. Is this just my Cat Converter heat shield or is it the Cat itself? Is it something completely different. I have no exhuast hangers loose or hanging and the pipes from the Cat back are only 4 years old and in great shape.

The noise comes and goes, it could sit there for 10 min and have no rattling and then all of a sudden it starts to rattle for a little bit, then it goes away again.
I just have no...
I have a 2004 Toyota Tacoma Prerunner. When I first start it on a cold morning, it makes a rattling noise. It generally goes away after 2-3 minutes when the engine warms up. I suspect my problem maybe a belt.....Does anyone else have any theories?
Thanks!
I have a 2000 Nissan Maxima 5spd, I live in New England so it is very cold. My car will start fine but when I put it into 1st gear I can hear a rattle when I accelerate, also a little but of a rattle going into 2nd gear. It is not a very loud rattle but I also hear it once in while going over...
I am car shopping, (know very little about cars and stuff), I want something small with good to avg. mpg., a 2001-2006, low mileage or at least not super high, that is all under $8000.
Went car shopping and fell in love with this 2004 Rally Yellow (fav color) Automatic Sunfire. They are...
