Ford - Ranger :: 2002 - Making Clunking Sound


Nov 14, 2015

My 2002 Ranger XLT Supercab Edge makes a clunking sound, but not every time, when I start going from a stopped position. It's coming from underneath right behind the cab. The Ford dealership could find nothing wrong. What this could be?

Passat (B7) :: 2013 - Making Clunking Sound?

I purchased back in January my 2013 Passat and today for the first time, I noticed that when I turn my steering when the car is not moving, I hear a clunking sound and I can actually feel the clunk too.

When I'm driving I don't feel or hear anything. It's really when the car is on but not moving.

This is getting annoying because this is the 3rd time something is going wrong with my car.

Going back to the clunking, I was reading that it's a common problem with most VW vehicles.

What it could be. I don't wanna look like an idiot that's been going to the dealer so often for these types of issues.

Golf IV R32 :: FSB Making Clunking Sound At Low Speeds

My FSB is making some clunking noises. Literally sounds like metal on metal banging. Im thinking its the FSB bushings. I just put the bar in about 4-5 months ago, not sure how the bushings could be shot already. The car only makes these noises at low speeds. On the highway i dont hear a thing. I installed the bar myself, so i know there is very little room for play.

Saab - 9-3 :: Right Front Suspension That Has Been Making A Clunking Sound

Today, I took my 2007 Saab 9-3 2.0T with 67,000 miles on it to a local mechanic to check the right front suspension that has been making a clunking sound when hitting potholes, etc. I was told that the right front coil spring is broken. This afternoon, I looked on line on some of the Saab discussion boards and saw that for cars up 2006 that there was an extended warranty offered for 10 years and 120,000 miles due to multiple cars with this problem caused by an, allegedly, faulty design that allowed the springs to corrode and fail prematurely in snow belt states that salt the roads.

Ford - Ranger :: 1998 - Heavy Clunking Sound While Starting And Stopping

I have a 1998 Ford Ranger, 3.0 4X4. Purchased in early 2002 with a clunking problem which has not gotten worse or better. When I take off it is a heavy double 'clunking' like something shifting and the settling. I have had 4 mechanics look at it, have changed the front u joint and have had the motor and transmission mounts checked but the mounts are OK. Can't figure this out. I talked to a person at a local car parts store and he mentioned that it could involve the 'yoke' and that it just might need to be greased but he was just guessing.

Elantra XD (2001-06) :: 2002 GLS Making Clunking And Whining Noises At Certain Speeds

I recently had my manual transmission go out on my 2002 Elantra GLS. It has 208k miles and the tranny had been giving me shifting issues for years. It finally made some clunking and whining noises at certain speeds. I picked up a replacement tranny, but the car has sat in my garage for the last two months. I slowly worked on it over that time and have finally completed it. I went to start it up tonight and it idles normally for 1 second, then it revs up to about 5k. It does this over and over until I turn the car off, and a very hard to see white-ish smoke comes from the air intake tube as I have it only partially on for testing.

The car ran fine before hand. What could this be? I have never experienced this with a vehicle before and searching on the web only gives me links to people having idling and revving issues while at stop lights or on the freeway. The idle did used to stick around 2.5k RPM when I started it up from time to time. Although, a small blip of the throttle would set it back to its normal idle speeds. BTW, the engine runs well with no knocks and has great compression across all 4 cylinders.

Ford Ranger / B-Series :: 2007 FX4 - Clunking Sound From Front End In 4 Wheel Drive

There is a clunking sound and feel from the front end of my 2007 Ranger FX4 when in 4 wheel drive. This happens sometimes but not always on engaging or disengaging 4 wheel drive, as well as sporadically while driving along. I took it back to Ford on warranty with this problem last year, and after a few attempts I had them admit that something was wrong and they finally diagnosed that it was the front drive shaft that was binding where it leaves the transfer case, this was replaced. I have now put maybe 50km (max) on in 4 wheel drive and the problem is back, I don't think the problem was ever fixed.

Ford - Ranger :: 1997 - Clunking / Rattling Sound In Manual Transmission At Random Times

I have a '97 Ranger with about 120k, 5 spd manual transmission, 2wd. For the last 2-3 months I'm hearing and feeling a clunking or rattling noise (I can't decide which it is) coming from the rear of the vehicle at random times.

I can't really predict or find a pattern of when the noise will happen, but it seems like it is most likely to happen when I'm either accelerating up a hill or when I'm braking relatively hard. It happens whether the clutch is in or out. Doesn't seem to matter. It does NOT happen when idling, only when traveling. I don't ever remember it happening at highway speed (65mph).

If I have my hand on the stick shift I can feel the shaking / rattling as it happens. There seems to be no impact on the performance of the vehicle - no additional trouble shifting into or out of gear, accelerating, or anything else.

On a recent trip I towed a 1,000 lb trailer and I did not feel or hear the noise at all during that trip (about an hour each way). Any guess as to whats going on?

Ford - Mountaineer :: 2002 - Clunking / Clanging Sound When Going In Forward And Reverse

I have an 02 mercury mountaineer awd. It's making a clunking/clanging sound when going in forward and reverse and it gets louder when turning. Just replaced driver cv axle, changed fluids on front and rear differential also put the stiction modifier in rear. It only does it on the ground assuming it's putting a load on it. Won't do it on a lift. What might be causing it. Tires are same size also.

Ford Ranger / B-Series :: 1999 V6 - Engine Making Sucking Sound Occasionally

My 1999 Ranger with 4.0 EFI V6 engine makes a "sucking sound" occasionally. At first I thought it was a belt slipping, but now I believe it is some kind of intake air leak. If I stop the truck while the sound is on, I can open my driver's door and get to about the front of the hood before the sound stops. I have never been able to observe the engine with the "sucking sound" on. Sometimes the engine will kill when the "sucking sound" stops, if the engine is idling and in gear. If I just keep driving normally, there does not seem to be any permanent problem. What the problem is?

Sierra :: 2002 GMC SLE Have Low Mileage - Thumping Or Clunking Sound

Have been attempting to locate the source of thumping or clunking sound similar to that of bad shock, but too date haven't been able to pinpoint the source....

Have low mileage 2002 Sierra SLE that has a body noise that haven't been able to locate. The sound is similar to a bad shock....Replaced the front shock.....which wasn't 2 years old...and then the noise reappeared again....Have checked the wheels and motor mount...but so far no luck....

It seems to be worse in cooler weather and is reproduced when driving over an uneven surface or hitting a bump....The clunk is intermittent...Sometimes you will get the noise driving over a bump....sometimes not......The noise seems to be originating on the driver front quadrant....but i maybe wrong....

Have had mechanic check the truck on a hoist, but can't find anything out of order...no tire wear...wheels are solid with no play...nothing out of the ordinary that we can see....Tried moving the body by hand..but can't reproduce the "clunk".....

Even after 14 years the truck is solid ...and no rattles or noises until now......Guess i'm just a nit picker...but would like to locate the source......

Toyota - Camry :: 2002 - Clunking Sound Near The Front Left Of Car

My 2002 Toyota Camry started making a clunking sound near the front left of the car (and I could barely feel it, too) at low speed over slight bumps. My mechanic, who I trust, said I had two broken engine mounts. He replaced them. Sound continued. He said I needed new struts. He replaced them. Sound continued. Decided to take it to a Toyota dealer. They said I needed new lower control arm bushings but couldn't guarantee that was the source of the sound and they would just have to see. I opted to ask yet another mechanic, who said the control arm bushings are NOT the problem, but he would have to spend some time (could be several hours) exploring to find out what the problem is...at $70+ per hour. The car only has 86,000 miles on it, but I'm getting concerned that I might end up paying for a new car without the new car smell if I keep spending money on "possible" causes.

Civic - Honda :: 2002 - Clunking Sound Heard And Felt On Front Passenger Side Floorboard

My girlfriend's 2002 Honda Civic. Whenever she and I make a turn in it, a clunking sound is heard and felt on the front passenger side in the area of the floorboard, and it seems to come from an area between the seat and the wheel well and seems to be getting slowly but surely/progressively worse/more noticeable as time passes. I checked underneath the car earlier today, and there aren't any observable leaks to report anywhere.

Ford - Ranger :: 2002 - Rattling Sound At Highway Speed In Warm / Windy Days

I have a very large rattling/vibrating sound when I am driving highway speeds. This only happens when the temperature is warm, and when a wind gust hits my truck (or if I am passing a Semi). When I drive to work in the morining, there are no issues. When I drive home in the afternoon, it will start within 5-10 minutes of hitting the highway. I have checked for any loose bits and pieces but I cannot find any. I have attached a sound recording of the issue.

Passat - Volkswagen :: 2002 - Brakes Making Crunching Sound When Press The Pedal Down

I know that VW's are known for funky problems. Sometimes when it has recently rained heavily, the brakes will make a crunching sound when I press the pedal down, and there is also increased pressure, as if there is water stuck somewhere. It will drive fine for a few minutes and then will start shuddering, spewing exhaust, and nearly stalling. The engine light will often flash, and for this reason I brought it into my mechanic who is a VW specialist. It was first diagnosed as a faulty engine coil, and that was replaced. The problem came back repeatedly and he said I would have to wait until it "got worse" for him to figure it out. I've been riding it out since then, and once I get to my destination and the car sits for a little bit (usually 4+ hours), it runs fine again. The rainy season has started so I'm a little worried about this happening on a regular basis. This has never happened in dry weather.
