Ford Excursion :: Clicking From Front Wheel


Feb 13, 2015

I have a drag/click coming from my front wheel. I had thecaliper off so it was definitely in the hub assembly. I went ahead and greasedthe hub through the ABS sensor but the drag/click was still there. I amthinking it is either the wheel bearing or the axle bearing. My question is ifI lock the hub and the drag/click goes away does that mean it is the axlebearing? Also, is it possible the auto locking hub could be part of the problem?

By the way, my Ex has 130K on it and the 4x4 auto selectworks fine. There is no play in the hub and no noise that I can hear. The onlyreason I am digging into this is a drop in gas mileage that led me to find outthat both front wheels are very tough to rotate (with the front drive disengaged).

Ford Excursion :: Hub / Wheel Bearing Noise - Clicking Sound

Not my video, but I have the same exact sound coming from my passenger side wheel on my 03 V10 4X4, 130K. Passenger side only, no noise from the other side.

YouTube .....

Before I spring for the Timkin, does this sound like a bad bearing? No play in the wheel, but it's a clicking sound.

Ford Excursion :: Steering Wheel Clicking While Turning With Turn Signal On

My wife asked me yesterday what was that "clicking" sound when I turned. I never noticed it before, now I notice it constantly.

With the wheels straight - activate either side turn signal. Now turn the whee IN the direction your signal is activated, notice a clic-clic-clic??

Then when you turn back towards straight the signal will de-activate and the clicking is gone. This an indication the multi-function switch is going?

Ford - F150 :: 2003 2WD - Metallic Clicking From The Front Left Wheel

My truck has recently developed a metallic clicking from the front left wheel (as best as I can tell). I only hear it at slow speeds and it seems to start during turns. I originally thought it was a rock in the tire because I could only hear it with the windows down. The sound has progressed to something more metallic and I have checked for rocks in tire several times. What it could be?

Ford Excursion :: Clicking Noise Coming From Front Right Side Tire - Excessive Play In Axle

I have had a Clicking noise on my 2000 x 4x4 since 6 months coming from the front right side tire noticeable over rough roads or over bumps and I went on a journey starting with ford dealer to almost all well recognized service centers and every body says your front suspension is ok and no one seems to know where it is coming from. I thought it was my hub bearing since it fails almost every year but when I was changing the bearing, I noticed a big Excessive play in axle.

See video : My AXLE Shaft - YouTube

Also I noticed oil mixed with grease the grease is prawny with a reddish sort of color or that is some thing else.

See photos ....

Any way after replacing the hub Bearing with a used one and butting every thing together I went on a test drive. Noticed that the vehicle drive line is not right the car seems to wonder and the noise still there so i didn't get far i came right back and park my x then a funny burned oil smell was present.

Ford Excursion :: Brakes Dust On Front Wheel?

Here's what I am running into. I have factory setup and it doesn't feel adequate. I get vibrations, lots of brake dust on front wheels, and just don't feel I have the stopping power if needed in emergency or towing. Especially with how heavy my 6.0 is already.

Ford Excursion :: Front End Pop / Clunk Through Steering Wheel

On my way home from work I was turning a corner and felt a pop / clunk from the front end through the steering wheel, and the steering wheel was no longer centered going in a straight line.

With the truck not moving, when I turn the wheel left and right, I can hear and feel a pop / clunk through the steering wheel. I'm assuming this is a ball joint failure?

Ford Excursion :: 2000 4x4 V10 - Front Wheel Not Spinning Freely

Well its been almost 2 weeks since I've had the Ex (has 103K miles). Planning on new V code springs, Bilsteins front and rear , and rear Hellwig bar going in this weekend. Once I see how that that works I may also upgrade the rear springs to B code.

When I had it up yesterday I noticed the front right wheel does not spin freely. I can hear what appears to be the brake pad dragging.

Right not everything wrong with mine seems very common:

- very poor ride, 3/4" clearance between the front bump stop and suspension
- 4 door locks don't work (that's after the suspension fix)
- drivers heated seat not working

Ford Excursion :: Growl Sound Like Front Left Wheel Bearing

I have been having towing with the X. I have been getting a growl lately sounds like the front left wheel bearing. Today I jacked it up and did the wiggle text. I have a very slight wiggle in both wheels. Is a slight wiggle normal? I know the bearing on the left is more than likely gone as the growl goes away when I jerk the steering wheel. But I haven't heard any noise from the right side yet.

Passat (B5) :: Clicking Noise From Front Driver Wheel

Over the last few days I've noticed a clicking noise coming from the front driver wheel. This clicking has been getting louder, everything seems in check, no crazy vibrations, or vering side to side and all lugs are tight. The clicking stops when the break is applied, could this be break pad warning chippers? I have yet had time to take wheel off and look.

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: Front Right Wheel Started Clicking?

My front right wheel began clicking a few weeks ago. It clicks under these circumstances...

- Usually when the car first starts rolling from a long stop. Usually stops after driving for a bit but does come back sometimes

- from 5-50mph (stops at high speeds)

- cornering does not seem to change the clicking. If anything it stops it rather than makes it worse

- clicking is in rhythm with wheel speed

- noise stops when brakes are applied

I'm thinking it's either a cv joint or I just replaced my brakes maybe it's the brake clip came out and is hitting the inside of the rotor?

Ford Excursion :: Right Front Wheel Bearing Started To Squeal Around Left Turns

My Excursion has proved to be a reliable winter vehicle, as was the intention. A few weeks back, at 116,000 miles, the right front wheel bearing started to squeal around left turns. Not very loud, so I didn't think it was all that bad, just an indication it was going. I jacked up the front of the truck anyway for good measure, and found a tremendous amount of slop in the bearing. Yeah, the bearing had disintegrated. Time for a replacement.

I bought a new replacement hub off of eBay, and proceeded to start tearing into the thing. Should be an easy repair... Right.

The repair itself is actually straightforward, but I had a few little snags get in my way. The one I'm facing now is that the new hub did not come with replacement studs, and the old hub's studs will not come out. Yes, I tried using a torch (and failed). I got one removed, only to find it's a fine thread and possibly Metric. Either way, it's not something that they have at Lowes.

Where to get more of these, or what the size is so I can order some from McMaster?

Ford Excursion :: 2000 - Left Front Wheel Is Making A Rubbing Sound?

I have a 2000 Excursion 2wd. The left front wheel or something up front is making a rubbing sound when I turn to the right. Checked the brakes, they looked fine. Pulled front rotor off and replaced the wheel bearing just incase. Still making that same noise? I can't see any sign of something rubbing either on the frame, brakes lines, or control bars?
