Ford - Ranger :: 1999 - Loud Squeal When Shifting Up Sometimes


Aug 14, 2011

My 99 5-speed Ranger sometimes makes a loud squeal when shifting up. Sounds like a belt slipping. It's intermittent and annoying, and has been there forever. The truck has less than 50k on it. Seems like it does this most when upshifting from 2 to 3, and never from 1 to 2 or 4 to 5.

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: 2003 1.8T - Loud Squeal While Accelerating / Down Shifting

Car was running fine, on the way home from work I noticed it having a loud squeal while accelerating, down shifting.

The car squealed all the way home fine, no power loss really no smoke no anything, I let the car sit for a little, warmed it up and decided to go to drive it around so I could diagnose the problem better.. While doing so now let me describe the sound.. it's like the sound when you go in reverse and back up, that winding sound.. that's what it sounded like.

Back to the story while driving to diagnose the problem more within 5 minutes it made a loud sound like an axle falling out almost on the passenger side of the engine, once I got out I could hear it more and more and looked under the car it looked wet and it looked like oil running down but also could of been something else I'm not sure.. I took a video [URL] .....

The car made it home safe and sound and parked but I don't know if my engine is done. To note I only saw one drip of oil come down while I was underneath of the car but shown in the video you can see where it looks wet was not there before I drove it.

Ford Ranger / B-Series :: 1999 - T/O Bearing Making High Pitch Squeal Noise

The T/O bearing makes a high pitch squeal until you put light pressure on clutch then it will go away. Does this thing have a preload on bearing at all times or should there be free play like in the old days??

Another thing that has me wondering is when I push clutch all the way in it actually puts a load on the engine. Having T/O bearing so bad it puts a load on the engine?

Passat (B5) :: 1999 - Loud Backfire While Down Shifting

OK about 3 months ago I bought my first vw, a 99 Passat 1.8t. Car was great. Only problem at the time was a loud backfire while down shifting no clue on y either. Let me say this is my first turboed car too. Anyway after about 2-3 days my cel came on. I threw my scanner on it and got evap leak. I filled her up right after that and smelled real bad gas. Found a screw hole in the trunk patched it cleared the code an she ran great again. Well for a few days now after every fill up I have to keep my foot on the throttle or it stalls out. Keep getting same code. Also when I go to jump on it it'll like studdar an hesitate before going. No more gas smell either. The kid I bought her from did some work an I'm getting 15lbs of boost but at times will jump to 17-18 lbs. I have no problem doing the work to get just need some guidance on what to do. I've been told change charcoal canister, fuel filter charcoal canister purge valve, I guess there's 2 cause I was told to change both. I love this car, this is the best and my favorite car I've ever had. J wanna get her all nice and healthy.

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: Clutch Slipping - Harsh Shifting - Loud Clunk Noise Into Gear 2 Then 1

New truck 11000kms ago thats done medium amount of work but nothing heavy or sustained for long periods of time. I get the feeling of clutches slipping especially when truck is cold but also when normal temps. Doesnt make any weird noises or anything. I can really notice the difference in torque if in manual mode being much better, but still not perfect if i stomp on the gas pedal and go through the gears in manual mode will still slip. Also is really harsh shift if i come to a halt in 3rd manual mode with the brake pedal depressed push minus button the truck makes very loud clunk noise into gear 2 then 1. Took it to ford they couldnt find anything ? Thinking of trying another dealer.

Ford - F150 :: 1997 - Loud Squeal When Wheels Are Turned

1997 Ford F150, 6cyl, 138K miles. The truck has a loud squeal when the wheels are turned. This occurs when it's stopped or at low speeds (can't really tell if it's happening at other speeds ?). A friend who's a mechanic, upon hearing the noise, said he thought it was either tie rods or ball joints. I replaced the tie rods (original ones) and the squeal remains. Is there any definitive way to determine if indeed the ball joints are causing this noise ? When I posted before, someone suggested I may have a bad serpentine belt pulley, but the noise seems to be coming from the front end, and not under the hood.

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: Brief Squeal Only When Shifting Into First

I bought a 2004 2.0 Golf a few months ago and I've been noticing a strange squealing sound.

1. It happens when sitting in neutral or with clutch in for a while (red lights, etc) and when letting the clutch out and giving it some gas in first gear or reverse
2. Lasts only about a second, between 1000-1400 rpm maybe?
3. Never happens between any other shifts, and doesn't seem to happen if I really hit the gas/let clutch out very fast or shift quickly
4. Electrical load, engine hot or cold, A/C on or off, turning wheel all seem to be independent of the noise. Sometimes it happens, sometimes it doesn't regardless of these.
5. I've put a few thousand miles on it since I bought it, doesn't seem to be getting any better or worse.
6. Sounds kind of like a pulley/belt squeal, but I'm afraid it could be a throw out bearing or pilot bearing?

I found a lot of references to the clutch pulley on the alternator seizing on mkivs so on a whim I bought a new belt and clutch pulley, but when I went to change them I noticed that my alternator doesn't have a clutch pulley on it. It's the OEM 90A Bosch alternator.

The car has about 135k miles on it but unfortunately I just bought it so I don't have much of a history.

1. Any thoughts on the noise?
2. Should my alternator even have a clutch pulley?
3. I put on a new Goodyear serpentine belt because I thought maybe the old belt was slipping or something (it was in rough shape) but the noise doesn't seem to have changed.

Just as a troubleshooting method, I'm thinking of taking the serpentine belt off completely and trying to replicate the noise in a parking lot, just for a few minutes when the engine is cold.

Ford - Explorer :: 1997 - Brakes Fine But Loud Squeal Except When Braking

I have a 1997 Explorer, AWD. On Sunday, the right front side started making a really loud, high-pitched squeal, which stops when I step on the brake. I had my mechanic check it, and my brakes are in fine shape (replaced by the same mechanic less than a year ago), so why is this happening?

Ford 6.0L Power Stroke Diesel :: Loud High Pitch Squeal At Idle

Yesterday my truck started making a loud high pitch squeal at idle. Messing with it this morning I found when I turn the a/c on it quits. Then it will do it for a second at startup and quit. If the a/c system is turned off it comes back. I thought exhaust leak until I found the a/c link.

Ford Ranger / B-Series :: 2002 3.0L Sounds Like Fan Belt Squeal

After about 1 minute after starting the truck it sounds like the fan belt is squealing..(below 30 deg outside) Only its not the fan belt as I replaced it. Does not do it when it is engine is operating temperature. Have checked all of the Pulleys which seem to be all right. The frequency of the squealing sound is about 1/3 the engine RPM and will go away above 2k when it does do it. Stopping at a stop light after about 45 seconds it really starts to get loud. Can a Fan Clutch do this.. I beleive that this engine has a timing chain right?

Ford - Ranger :: 2008 - Intermittent High-pitched Squeal After Warmed Up / Idling?

I have an '08 Ranger, automatic. For the last several months, the truck has been making an intermittent high-pitched squeal/whine, but only after it has been warmed up (10--15 minutes driving) and only while it is idling. As soon as I'm driving, the whine stops; whine will occur both in drive (but stopped) and in park. The whine will not happen every day I drove, nor will it happen at every stop. When it does squeal, the squeal will fade in and out in volume.

An interesting kicker I've found recently: it seems to be dependent on electrical draw. For example, if I'm sitting idle with the lights on, and the truck is squealing, and then I turn the lights off, it suddenly squeals less. Still squeals, but less than with the lights on.

I have had mechanics check all the usual suspects, belts, etc, but have not found anything amiss. Nor can I actually get the squeal to occur when I visit the mechanics.

Lexus GS 2006-11 :: New Brake Pads Click And Squeal When Shifting Car Forward Or Backward

I bought Akebono cermaic pads for my GS 350 AWD which I thought were high quality good fitment pads as they even advertise them on tirerack. Now I am not really impressed. After about a month every time I pull out of my garage in the morning they click and squeal (squeak).

The scenario: After I come home from work at night I pull into my driveway and park in the garage. The pads are already seated in the forward position from driveing forward and parking. Then in the morning I go and back up in reverse to pull out, I tap the brakes to stop and shift into drive to pull forward; at the moment I depress the break pedal the two front rotors simultaneously click and sometimes squeal. Sometimes when I get in my car at the transit center in front of everyone this happens.

Is there a shim kit or something I can add to the brake pads to sit in between the pads and rotors to get them to stop moving. I know that there not moving a lot but whatever play they have is causing me brake pad buyers remorse.

I went with these Akebono ceramic because they dust much less then stock semi-metallic pads. Becuase I had them on my Audi and they didnt dust nearly as much as the stock set. But once and while they too would click in this situation but nearly as much as now in my Lex.

Golf V R32 :: Loud High Pitched Squeal

While driving home tonight in the snow, about half away home I noticed the most god awful high pitched squeal sound coming from what sounded like the back passenger side of the car. The squeal was so loud it made me cringe. I couldn't really get any near 40 mph because I could hear it start and instantly it would become really loud and would only stop when I slow down almost completely and then maintain a speed around 30 mph. It's pitch black out so I couldn't conduct a real thorough inspection however a quick look over and I didn't see anything wrong.

Prius (Gen 3) :: Rear Brake Squeal Loud When Backing

The scene: 22k miles on a 2010 Prius II. Loud rear brake squeal, worse when backing, but still present going forward at low speeds. Does not seem to go away even when warmed up. I put it off having it checked at first because a little rust on the pads is very common in my climate.

At the dealer, the tech tells me I've worn completely through the pads and scored the rotor! At 22k! On a Prius, for crying out loud! It's not my driving, either, because that's the first I've ever had anything done to rear brakes on any car before 75k. The front brakes needed no attention at all. I challenged the service tech with these points; he even took me back into the shop to show me. The caliper pistons were moving freely, for what it's worth. Ultimately he just shrugged me off.
