I get this thumping noise during shifting at times. It doesn't always happen but I hear it somewhat frequently. It's a deep thump coming from the transmission during shift.

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: 2001 - Transmission Shifting At High Revs At Times

My auto transmission is sticky at times. This usually happens after an hour of driving doesn't happen all the time. The gears start to change at high Rpms like 5 to 6k. It's real annoying. Otherwise the tranny is very smooth , like butter . Shifts into all gears.

Ford F-150 (2009-2014) :: 2013 FX4 - Light Thump That Would Fade At Times

I am looking at 2013 FX4 with the 5.0 that has 127,000 miles. Truck is pretty clean cosmetically except for the inside of the bed which is pretty rough. When I went to look at the truck I was curious to hear it on initial start up and it was really quiet. I have never heard in person the dreaded knock of the 5.0, only on youtube. After the truck idled for 10min while we talked I did kinda start to hear a little deep but very light thwump, thwump, thwump but it would fade at times and you wouldn't hear anything. I never heard it while I drove the truck. I know there are prob millions of these motors out there and the internet may make it seem worse than it is but would it scare you to buy a 2013 with 127K? I had thought originally that the 2011-2012 were the years with the problems but the latest 5.0 knock thread has me wondering.

Prius (Gen 2) :: Clunk Or Thump Noise When Shifting From D And R?

I've just bought a 2005 Prius, 142k miles. It's a great car, and frankly with any 'new' car I buy I always worry about new sounds. This time it's 'clunk' or 'thump' noise when shifting from D to R and vice versa. It doesn't happen all the time, but it's a noticeable noise that can be felt as well.

Elantra XD (2001-06) :: Manual Transmission - Thump When Shifting

I've been hearing a quiet 'thump' when shifting. In particular, when first letting up the clutch starting out in 1 but also when shifting between gears when the clutch is fully down such as from 2->3.

I thought perhaps a fluid change was in order since I'm at 110,000 miles. It didn't make any difference. (I used Mobil 1 GL5 which according to independent tests is safe on yellow metals.)

So then I wondered if it's the engine mounts, but I'm not sure what it sounds like when they need to be replaced or if simply shifting between gears while driving as described above would cause a worn one to 'thump'.

Elantra GD (2013+) :: Thump Noise Almost As Transmission Was Shifting When Taking The Turn

Overall, my wife and I like the car. It feels solid, and so far we have about 950 miles on it. Today though, something weird happened.

I was driving, and we were getting on the freeway after crossing an overpass, so it the on-ramp was one of those sweeping, downhill, 270 degree curves to the right. Nothing out of the ordinary.

So I let off the gas, and I'm taking the turn, and there was this "thump!" noise - almost as though the transmission was shifting. The car shuddered. Then it did it again.

It was disconcerting, almost reminiscent of our wacky dual-clutch transmission issues we had with our 2011 Ford Fiesta. Now granted, its a bit of conjecture since I don't know what could have caused it. I wasn't going quickly enough where any stability control mechanism (ESC) should have kicked in... so I'm not sure what else could have caused it. Undoubtedly I'll be testing it again to see if I can reproduce it, but its got me concerned.

Santa FE SM (2001-06) :: 2004 - Hard Thump When Shifting From Reverse Into Drive

Recently my 2004 Santa Fe 2.7 AWD (~86k miles) has started to give a sort of hard thump when shifting from reverse into drive. It's fine going into any other gears and it shifts up and down normally. If I shift from reverse to neutral and then to drive it's fine.

I changed the transmission fluid when we first got the car at 40K miles with Hyundai Liquid Unobtanium SPiii fluid and again at 80k miles with Valvoline's SPiii offering. I just checked the transmission fluid level and it's within the normal range.

I can't tell if this is just drive-line slop or something else inside the tranny.

Dodge - Dakota :: 2002 - Sloppy Shifting / Heavy Thump Changing Gears When Slowing

Last year, July, replaced Trans.modulator..All went well. Now..sloppy shifting, occasion heavy thump changing gears when slowing. Trans. people say All good according to their programs.....but they also feel the same problems. Its an internal problem, they say, too expensive to tear down.Drive it until it dies. ( 161 K on the odometer.....otherwise is perfect. I want to do a flush, then drop the pan, change the screens, tighten the bands and replace Trans. fluid.

Ford F-150 (2004-2008) :: 2005 - Clunk Noises Several Times When In 4 Wheel

My 2005 150 4X4 made a "clunk" noises several times when in 4 wheel this last weekend.

Sounded like the transfer case wasn't fully engaged.

This was after doing numerous 3 point turns on a dead end road to turn around. A real nightmare, cliffs on one side mountain on the other.

when we got back to relativity flat ground it ran fine with no more "clunking" noises.

It has 95K of hard miles on it. We didn't want to get stuck out of cell phone range, so we headed home.

Elantra XD (2001-06) :: Engine Light While Driving And 2nd Gear Taking Time Shifting - Thump On Transmission

O.K. first of all I had an issue with the Odometer pointer being jumpy. Sometimes it wouldn't move. Now I replaced the input sensor at first and did not fix the problem. I replaced the output sensor and fixed it. "BUT", Now, I have a problem with the transmission shifting. I get an engine light while driving and the 2nd gear seems to take its time shifting and when it does it make the left side drive shaft kick in hard and spends my wheel to a screeching effect. Plus a thump on the transmission. I rechecked the sensor for connection and reinstalled. Drove the car still have the same issue?

Bmw - Noises - Clutches - 328 :: Screeching When Shifting (manual Transmission)

I've got a 1996 BMW 328i manual. It has 175k miles. I purchased the car about a year ago. Several weeks ago, I began hearing a screeching noise when shifting when the car is cold. The screeching happens when you let the clutch out when going into gear. It happens much more frequently when very little throttle is used. If you shift it harder, it is less likely to make the noise. If it starts making the noise, you have to shift several times for it to go away. It'll still make the noise while in gear at that point. When the car is driven for about 10 minutes, it never makes the noise afterward, until the car cools down completely overnight. The clutch does not appear to be slipping at all, and once a gear is engaged, it does not have any issues staying in gear. What is my car's issue?

Toyota - Corolla - Noises :: Shifting Sand Noise While Turning?

Saw this topic addressed, but not resolved to my satisfaction, in a post made some years back by the owner of an '03 Corolla. The comments suggested a water leak was the cause. But the sound is definitely DRY (think Etch-A-Sketch vs. waterbed). And the small amount of water that is leaking on the front passenger side floor didn't start until about a month after we started hearing the noise.

My VERY amateur guess is that it is some sort of breach in the air bag system, since that's where the noise sounds like it's originating. I searched the internet and didn't find anything on this topic of a sand noise coming from the vicinity of the glove compartment. Since the local Toyota dealer service department also thinks it's a water leak (not covered by our warranty, apparently) and that it could be potentially very expensive to locate and fix....

Subaru - Outback - Noises - Transmissions :: Noise For 1 Minute And 40 Seconds After Shifting?

Noticing a somewhat regular sort of light tapping noise from Subaru CVT Outback, when slowing to stop or starting out?

Some days it's noticeable only for about a second after the clunk from shifting, often you can hear it a bit longer.

You can hear it best at about 1 min, and last 40 seconds of this short trip audio-clip.

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: Hard Shifting - Slight Bit Of Clinking Noises Every Time Started From A Stop

Well shoot, not even 120k on the odo and I've had my first major problem with the truck, and the one thing I hoped wouldn't be an issue, especially since I don't work my truck hard and 95% is driving unloaded highway as a daily driver.

Last time I drove it coming home from grocery store there was a big racket from down under (transmission area). It instantly didnt feel right - there was a slight drag even when the clutch was in, but rolled fine when I pulled it out of gear entirely. Was VERY difficult to go into first gear. Other gears shifted ok but some of them felt hard too. Would not go into reverse at all!. Slight bit of clinking noises every time I started from a stop, but made it home ok and things seemed to ease up as I went. Today, seems to be shifting fine, reverse works and everything.

Now for several years I've had a noise that I couldn't figure out. I am guessing it's related because it sounded like was coming from tranny area. Often, when starting out from a stop, there was a bit of clinking noise like a couple tin pie pans rattling together just as the clutch started to go. I kept thinking it was loose heat shield or something clanking just under the initial vibration of getting going. Never did find anything loose. I'm guessing it's internal.

I've called a couple local shops and so far no one wants to mess with it. Dam this sucks i hoped the MT would be more reliable, not the first thing to go. I myself have never messed with any aspect of a transmission, though I not opposed to learn however I was hoping to take this on an out of state trip end of May, and I'm not going to have much any free time between now and then.

Ford Transmission :: 1997 F150 4x4 V8 Skidding / Clutch Is Not Holding At Times When Shifting Up Or Down While On Cruise And Slight Hills

This is an Auto/4z4/4.6 V-8. It's Skidding or a Clutch is not holding at times when shifting up or down while on Cruise and slight hills.

someone suggested changing oil and filter about two years ago. I did that and it didn't change a thing. $145 that time.

I'd like to know if its the clutch in the torque converter, or the Transmission? If I have to change something out, should I get both?

Golf/GTI VII :: Faint Thump Noise When Changing Gears From 1st To 2nd And 2nd To 3rd

2015 GTI, 6sp, Coupe, 3000km.

When changing gears from 1st to 2nd and 2nd to 3rd, I get this faint THUMP thump noise coming from what seems to be the driver side foot well area, on the other side of the firewall.

Other ways to replicate is by simply clutching in as if changing gears, but not actually shifting. It can be prevented by shifting/accelerating very slowly (not practical).

Nothing can be felt in the clutch pedal OR the shifter. Can't be replicated in neutral, or by simply letting off the gas under boost. ONLY when the clutch is engaged about 2.5k RPM in 1st, and 2nd.

What it could be. Dogbone bushings? Engine mount? Gerbils? Also, went to dealer and they said it wasn't "enough" for them to start pulling stuff apart. Was told to wait until it gets worse.

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: 2003 - Thump Type Of Vibration Once Hit About 40 Mph

2003 Jetta 1.8t 83,000 miles

Mods - Coilovers and Spacers thats it

Issue - Once I hit about 40 mph I get a thump type of vibration. I originally thought it was bad tire balance, but tire balance usually become more noticeable around 60-65. My issue is mainly present at 40 - 55 and especially noticeable on deceleration. My thoughts are maybe a wheel bearing but most likely a axle on the way out. I heard it is common to blow axles on lowered MK4s. To explain the feeling better once you hit 40 mph there is a vibration that seems like a thumping or like that it matches with the rotation of the tire. The vibration is very noticeable between 40 - 55 then it fades but is still there, but to a lesser extent.

Golf/GTI VI :: 2012 - Thump Sound Only Occurs In First Minute Or So Of Driving

I just bought a new 2012 Golf 2.5L (base model) last weekend and noticed a THUMP THUMP THUMP sound. Only occurs in the first minute or so of driving, and only when the car starts cold (hasn't been driven for 10+ hours).

Continues to occur if I entirely stop the car (haven't tried turning engine off though...) Sounds like it comes from around the rear passenger-side suspension area. Somewhat irregular THUMP sound. Pretty loud, especially if I get out of the car and go to the rear wheel area. It doesn't occur at a constant rate, it's more like: THUMP THUMP THUMPTHUMPTHUMP THUMP THUMP ...

What's going on here?

Golf/GTI VI :: 2012 - Loud Deep Bass Thump Sound When Decelerating

On the way to work this morning in stop-and-go traffic, I noticed a new, weird noise from my week-old 2012 GTI with less than 500 miles on it.

The noise happens when letting of the gas in gear. Doesn't matter what gear you're in or what the engine speed is. Around a second after getting of the gas, there is a loud, depp bass thump, almost like a subwoofer hit from a close-by car. That's what I originally thought it was, but later determined it's something from my car.

What it could be? An exhaust noise? Something hitting? Is this a common noise on the new GTIs?

Golf IV R32 :: Dull Thud Or Thump Even When Driving Over Small Pavement Imperfection

The front suspension of my R has been making a lot of racket lately. Every small pavement imperfection creates a dull thud or thump. Could it be my strut mounts? They are about 3 years old — I replaced them when I installed Koni FSD under stock springs. I have a vague recollection that the distance between the top of the shock tower and the underside of the metal strut "hat" should be no more than 10mm... I have about a 12mm gap. Does that mean anything?

Golf V R32 :: Noises From Front Suspension

Attached is a video of my car going over speed bumps. It sounds like a rusty bed spring :/ I dont know what to do. The dealership told me that everything is fine, but i dont believe that.

On another side note, i am also experiencing misfires a lot, and the car feels a little under powered. I dont know what part to replace but i was hoping to get some info on what to do, and yes i took it to the dealer, nothing showed up on the vag and like the previous issue they said the car is fine!! My ideal situation is to have someone drive it and confirm that there's an issue, and then obviously to fix the issue.
