Ford Excursion :: Irritating Squeaky Noise When Driving Around
Mar 14, 2012
I am getting an irritating squeaky sound when driving around and I have targeted the sound to be coming from the rear side interior panels on the passenger side. I discovered the sound while sitting in the far back 3rd row bench while someone drove me and ran over reflectors on the road (this is one way I could find to recreate the sound) and if you push a lil bit against the "pillar" area on those side interior panels at the rear you can easily hear it but when driving it becomes quite a bit annoying. I have thought about taking out both the lower and upper portions of the panels and maybe trying to dampen it a little by putting some electric tape in certain areas and areas that come to contact with the other panel.

So I heard some low-pitch but still the squeaky-type noise under the wheel when I turn it while driving/parking. In addition, once in a while, while driving the car, it will automatically honk on the street. I sense the car may need some check-up for its electric system. But what shall I do at this moment?

So I have a 2015 SE DSG. I'm getting the irritating popping noise, at no particular speed, coming from what sounds to be the middle/rear. It is lowered on H&R coilover, which I have checked over and over again to make sure everything is tight. It started about 500 miles ago, and the Coilovers have been on for about 6000 miles, the car just hit 7000 miles.

I recently replaced the wipers on my 2007 Toyota Avalon Limited. The new wipers are a rather expensive one-piece design that tends to bounce along the windshield producing an irritating noise. Never had this problem with the original equipment wipers. I have cleaned the wipers with alcohol, which temporarily improves the situation but the problem quickly returns. Only relief comes during major downpours.

The front end on the ex started humming really bad today after driving 350 miles to Memphis Tennessee. When I noticed the humming I pulled over and unlocked the hubs thinking the front axle is low on gear oil. No change when back on the interstate. If I turn right at highway speeds the noise completely goes away. While driving straight its pretty loud. The more I turn left the louder it gets. Just had the front end apart to do all ball joints tie rod ends etc. the hubs looked great and didnt have any play at all. The noise happens between 40-65 mph. After 70 mph the noise goes away. Doesn't go away when I let of the pedal, hit the brakes, put in neutral while driving, or accelerate. Could it be the hubs?

I have a 2000 4x4 Lim Excursion V10 and have started noticing a whining noise when acceleration from a stopped position. I cannot hear it at higher speeds maybe because of my exhaust . I also tried revving the engine in park and could not seem to hear the noise which leads me to believe it's not the engine per say. It is clearly from the front. I have heard the noise also coming from when I am turning from a dead stop so I think the steering pump is going out. But when I am driving straight it also makes a whining noise without turning too I have no clue what it could be I just change my belt about a month ago to a 45.00 Gates Belt from O'Reilly, so it can't be that. sounds like a old foreign car backing up its like urururururur but not that loud LOL... from a stop light then goes away around 25mph or so!!

I have a 2003 excursion... it is a v 10and just yesterday there was a whistling noise. I parked the vehicle and idle it slowly but no noise. I drove it again n the noise was there again. So the noise is there at 2000-2500 rpm. I'm wondering if its my exhaust manifold?? Also I'm starting to loose power. When running and in parked it shut off.

So, coming home tonight, I had a new error pop up that I haven't seen before - TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR FAULT - combined with an extremely irritating flashing TPMS light.
I had new tires put on last week... have right at 102K on the truck now. It's an 09 XLT Screw 6.5' bed 4x2.
What will be the possible cause? Is it at all likely that the sensor was damaged during the tire install? I don't want to give the tire shop a hard time if it wasn't their fault, but the timing seems a bit of a coincidence.

I've got an issue with my 2008 (gen1) Mazda 6 (6 cylinder). The car makes a high pitched (as opposed to a low pitched rumble) "airy/raspy" squeaking noise while moving. It doesn't make any odd noises in park. It sounds like it's coming from the front of the vehicle and maybe louder from the front passenger side.
When I start the car up in the morning it doesn't make noise. After about a mile or so it starts. It seems to get more pronounced the more it's warmed up. The noise doesn't change pitch although it seems to oscillate a little bit.I've had the brakes checked at the shop and they say it's not them. I had 'em change out the front pads ( and resurface the rotors ) just in case. I took it back to the shop and they couldn't locate it.Do you think it could be belt / pulley related?
It doesn't increase/decrease when the A/C is turned on and off so I don't think it's the A/C compressor.

I have a 2011 Honda Civic EX-L sedan with 10,000miles on it. I've noticed that the brakes often make a squeaking noise when I am driving slowly and come to a stop at a stop sign. It seems to happen most often after a cold start (e.g. I notice it in the morning when I start my drive to work and otherwise when I have not been driving around in my car). I took it to the dealership today and they said everything was fine with the brakes; they are in great shape and starting to wear normally. They found nothing wrong and they did not hear the squeaking although I heard it this morning and last night.

The sunroof seems to squeak a lot while driving on bumpy/ uneven roads.
Before I didn't know where the squeaking sound was coming from, I assumed it was from the doors. But when I opened up the sunroof the squeaks went away and when I closed it the squeaks came back. The sound is so irritating sometimes that I am forced to drive with the sunroof open.

So I'm experiencing a very irritating rattle at about 2000rpm under acceleration. I've only noticed it in sport mode. Seems to be coming from the front of the center console.

I bought a luxury truck from a GMC dealer. This truck had a $35k sticker price and came with leather, buttons, dual climate etc. Loved the truck for 1 day. The first morning in my driveway, I opened the driver door and this low irritating sound was coming out of the dashboard. Drove round trip Phoenix to Tulsa cringing.
First dealer visit- total mystery, not everyone can hear the sound, service bulletin appears and diagnosed as a transmission solenoid; normal noise; not covered. Second dealer visit- I'm hearing things, another service bulletin claims the sound is from the cd motor; normal sound; not covered. The last visit I had them pull the radio- sound went away; reattached the radio and the sound comes back.
Did an internet search "irritating sound radio GMC." A lot of people have found this sound and the cause is said to be the radio cooling fan.

I have a 1990 Mitsubishi Mighty Max that squeaks like you're opening a screen door whenever it goes over bumps. Is this just because the old or do I need to get it to a shop to fix something?

I changed both idler pulleys (AC and Alternator) and still I hear metal-to-metal noise. If a bearing is bad on one of the other pulleys, how do I find that out and can I replace it myself?

My '12 Tig SEL is approximately 6 months old and I've started to notice some squeaky brake noises this week. Just under 10k miles at this point, the vast majority of those just regular commuting to/from work. No rally racing antics on my end, I swear. We have been in the midst of a killer heatwave on the East Coast though...I wonder if the heat could be a partial culprit?

I have 2011 SE (2.4L) that has a VERY noisy squeak that increases with the climate control's blower speed. The noise stops completely if the fan speed is set to OFF. It has been rectified twice by the dealer, who said they just vacuumed it out or something, that there was leaves/trash somewhere causing this. I don't even park near trees or anything! Anyway, my car is now out of warranty, how can i do this myself?

I have a 2005 Honda Civic and it has a pronounced squeakiness. I have had my steering, suspension repaired and nothing has seemed to work. It's really annoying and frustrating, especially because mechanics have "fixed it", but the noise always seems to continue.

It's fine when it's dry...is it usually just the serpentine belt? Is this a common issue? Just want to make sure before i replace it.

This is about a 2000 gmc sierrra 2500 truck I purchased with 194k a few years ago. It now has 232k. Whenever I go from a complete stop, the noise sounds as if it comes from the rear area. It sort of has a sliding umph noise, as if a slide hammer is going from front to back with a resounding stop as I move forward. I have checked the driveline, the rearend, the bed attaching bolts, and most everything in the rear section for tightness.
I had the bed loaded heavily once and it seemed to not make the noise. When I tow a boat or tow nothing it makes this noise with a sort of bang or stopping sensation at the end like the slide of something that then stops. Who wants to ride under my truck for a diagnosis? Could it be in the transmission? ha, it could be anything we all know that !
