Golf/GTI VI :: Clicking / Ticking Sounds From Steering Wheel / Column Area

My car is 2 months old. About one week ago, I began hearing a subtle clicking sound when turning the steering wheel fatter than 45 degree on either side. At first I thought it came from the turning signal mechanism doing "double clicks" since it sounded merely the same albeit being a bit quieter, but now I think it emanates from just behind the steering wheel.

Since then the problem got worse, not louder but more frequent. Maybe its just me being more aware and looking for it, I don't know. Also this weekend I changed my set of wheels for 18" with low profile tires, coming from the stock 16" vw mags. May not be related since the problem started before I changed the wheels, but since it got worse.

Touareg :: Very Slight Rattle In Center Console Area During First 5 Minutes Of Driving

I have on '06 V6. This slight rattle/vibration only happens during the first 5 minutes of driving, and only starts AS am driving down a slight hill from our development. It doesn't seem mechanical. It just sounds like an interior piece is loose. It seems to be coming from the center console or passenger seat area. It doesn't happen everyday. Once I am on the highway, flat area or after a few minutes it's gone. I have shuffled everything around in the center storage area, glove compartment, seat belt - nothing.

Ford Excursion :: 2000 - Overhead Display Console Not Working

On my 2000 Ex my overhead console screen does not work. I have searched and found a few F series ones but nothing about the removal of the huge console. Is it pretty much the same process?

Ford Wiring/Electrical :: Overhead Console Display Quit Working

I have an 03 F350 Lariat, the overhead console display quit working awhile back (about 18 months ago) and so far my only option is to buy a new one from Ford. I have looked online, on ebay, local wreckers and have come up with nothing. I have come close a few times but the wrecks didn't have a sunroof so the display is different. I searched and found ways to fix the resistors but mine do not seem to have the poor solder problem that some do. Where I can find a replacement display?

Sonata NF (2006-10) :: Center Console Removal (Storage Area)

I have an 09 SE, In the center area under the radio I had a access card slide over the open bottom door into the abyss where I lost a tire gauge and who knows what else lurks in there. It was supposed to go in the top open area but the person just put it on the open door and it slid back and fell.

How to remove the side panels that run from the console in the center to under the dash? I need to access the area under the dash below the 2 storage areas.

I am assuming you take the screws out on the side and possibly pop the shift indicator panel out and lift the console off? Seems a little overkill unless there is an easier way. I really don't want to experiment and break anything.

Jeep - Grandcherokee :: 2014 - Dash Electronic Console Display Turned Off While Driving

I have a 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee with a start button and key fob and all the new electronic controls. While driving recently, the dash electronic console display turned off (I thought the car engine had died). It spontaneously lit up again, but all the warning and check engine lights were on. The car would only move forward very slowly (as if stuck in 1st gear). When I was able to pull over safely to the side of the road out of traffic, I was unable to get the car out of drive into park. Because it wasn't in park, I could not turn off the engine! I was afraid to take my foot off the break, fearing it would begin moving, so I couldn't get out to disconnect the battery. Is there any way in these new technology cars to force the engine to shut down in the event the electrical system is malfunctioning?

Ford F-150 (2004-2008) :: Hum Almost Sounds Like Faint Grinding When Driving Along Flat Road

2005 f150 super cab, 5.4 liter, 4x4 107k miles. I have a 12 bolt rear differential and the tag on the door has an axle code of "B6". No noise under power or braking but if your driving along flat road and not much power is needed to keep the truck moving then there is a hum almost sounds like faint grinding but not quite. The differential housing gets hot to touch after a 30 mile drive down the interstate.

My brother was the previous owner and this has made the noise for years so it's not critical but annoying. I removed the dif. cover to change the oil. All the teeth are smooth, no rough or grinding surfaces. No play at the wheel end so I don't believe its a bad bearing. Oil was used but not burnt up or sludgy and very few metal flakes at bottom of housing. Thought it looked good for the age. Also, both wheels off ground and truck in neutral. There seems to be a lot of resistance while turning the wheel. I don't think the brakes are dragging but will eliminate that possibility this weekend.

What rear axle I have. Why its making the noise? How to repair it? Is this a posi diff?

Lexus ES 2013+ :: Slight Rattling Noise Coming From Console Area

Experienced a rattle coming from the console area... a week or two ago I was driving home from work and I heard a "slight" rattle noise.. it sounded as if it was coming from the dash area... This concerned me because when I first bought my car about 18 months or so ago, there was a very annoying squeak in the dash when the temp dropped below 50 degrees... I took it back to the dealer several times for that squeak, and finally a young tech there figured out the problem and fixed it.. still quiet to this day... so anyway I'm hearing this very faint rattle sound ( on a scale of 1 to 10 with 10 being the loudest, this would be a 2 or a 3 ) and it appears to be from the dash area...

I keep feeling around and putting pressure on different parts of the dash with no luck... then quite by accident I laid my hand across the counsel and as soon as my fingers pressed up against the round that selects eco / normal / or sport, the rattle stopped... removed my hand, rattle started again, just put one finger on the round and the rattle stopped...

So I had the car into the dealership for oil and filter change saturday and I saw that same tech that fixed my squeak last year... told him about the issue and while the car was in the shop he pulled the console.. said he couldn't find anything really wrong except that some of the clips were not lined up.. he didn't know if it would work but he said he insulated all the clips and a few other areas inside the console with some thick felt... charged me nothing... zero.... Don't know if the problem is permanently fixed, but I have not heard it in the two days since...

Sonata I45 (YF - 2011+) :: Sounds (Almost Musical) Coming From Dashboard Area Of Car

My wife has been complaining of sounds that are almost musical in nature coming from the dashboard area of the car. She said the sounds occur periodically and are a Duh-Duh-Duh type of sound that is almost musical. She says she can't tell exactly where the sound is coming from. It is almost like some kind if warning sound and just last occurred as she pulling into our driveway a few minutes ago. She said the MPG box in the center was pulsing in sequence with the sounds.

I have never had this happen to me to me. Taking this too a dealer would, most likely be futile, unless the problem could be replicated while at the dealer. She listens to Satellite Radio and I do not. Could this be of any consideration?

Lexus LS 2007+ :: Check Parking Assist Display On Nav Screen When Driving Down The Road

I can be driving down the road and "blam", the "check parking assist" comes on my nav screen. This message screen comes on and goes off all the time. It comes on when I am not around anything close. I had the parking assist sensors checked and every thing checked out OK. Could this a an electrical problem? If it becomes irritating, I just turn the parking assist off.

Prius (2010-12) :: Road / Wind Noise Coming From The Rear Passenger Area

I've owned a 2012 Prius Two for less than a month now, and today while driving home I noticed what sounds like road/wind noise coming from the rear passenger side area. Googling about this revealed information about the battery fan. However, I'm unsure if what I'm hearing is the battery fan or road/wind noise that I just haven't heard before.

Here's information regarding the conditions I was driving in:

- 84 degrees outside temperature

- car had been sitting in an open-air parking lot for about 2 hours

- no tint, no windows cracked for hot air release

- upon returning to the car I turned on the AC to 68, set at mid range speed

- was driving on the interstate doing some stop-and-go, but mostly 50-plus MPH

- windows rolled up completely, no doors ajar

- it sounded like air rushing by

- could not hear anything coming from the left rear side, but my left ear is partially blocked by the headrest, so...

- sound would decrease in volume if car slowed down

- sound would increase in volume as car got faster, but would eventually level out it seemed

- sound would completely go away at speeds below 20ish mph

- sound would not change based on level of AC, whether on, low, high or off

- checked battery vent for obstructions/debris, saw nothing, and was cool to the touch

- car has about 28k miles on it, replaced rear tires yesterday but all bolts, caps, etc. are securely in place

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: Clicking Sounds Coming From The Engine Bay

The issue I'm having, as stated is a no start issue. Its completely random and has no pattern. Here is the issue.

When the issue occurs, you will go to start the car to only have it click at you. No crank, no nothing. The click sounds like it comes from the engine bay but has not been confirmed. If you turn the key without the clutch in, putting the clutch in will make the click sound.

Thinking it was the ignition switch, I replaced it with a unit from advance auto. The issue occurred again shortly after so I pulled it out and put the old one back in. Then I replaced the starter. That didn't do it either.

It hasn't done it in a while so I kind of forgot about it but its started doing it again. Time to fix it.

Picture of the car for your viewing pleasure of displeasure...

Ford - F100 :: Knocking / Clicking Sounds - No Oil On Dipstick

Ok, down to business. I have a 1981 Ford F-100 with a 351w, offenhauser racing intake, 4bbl holley, c6 stall converter, 540 lunati lift cam and a nice MSD ignition. Last night I was starting my truck to run to the gas station and started to hear a "knocking/clicking" sounds. Immediately shut the truck down. Upon investigating the noise I pulled out my dipstick and noticed that it was tough to pull out as if it was caught up on something and also that there was no oil except for a little trail of it up one side of dipstick.

At this point I assumed that I had blown a head gasket and looked in my radiator. Nice and green with no trace of oil. Looking closer at the engine this afternoon, I notice a pretty decent amount of oil had stained the valve cover on the side with the valve cover breather. Also noticed some junk inside the breather that was a whitish/brownish color with the consistency of yogurt inside. My question is, in that I'm not overly advanced with this sorta thing, what is the general opinion of the problem and what should be done to rectify it?

Lexus GS 2006-11 :: Cruising Range Feature In ODO Display Area Always Wrong

Is it just me or is the cruising range feature in the ODO display area useless?

GS 430 2006 - 6 months old-

Filled up today while on a 200 mile trip and the car, with a full tank, says 240 miles left.

If I have an 18 gallon tank, that would be about 13.3 miles per gallon when I am averaging above 20 on the highway.

Does the GS not recalculate this and update it or does it use a standard MPG? Is there some way to adjust this?

Mercury - Capri :: Rough Engine After Drove Through A Flooded Area Of Road - Gas Smelling Smoke

Yesterday evening I drove through a flooded area of the road, probably about 1.5 feet deep. I did not realize it was quite that deep. The water came through the floor, and probably soaked my ECU.

The engine died, but will idle very rough. I doubt I got water in the cylinders, not much at least, because the engine turned over no problem. I also have an air filter that would be difficult to get too much water into from the way it is situated.

It is putting out white smoke that smells like gas (a lot initially, now not as much), and the engine is smoking a little as well...white, gas odor...I think it is coming out around the exhaust manifold.4

It is running very rough, sounds like from 2 cylinders, and after letting it idle in the hopes of drying everything out, I noticed that the fuel gauge is at empty...it was at 3/4 earlier.

What should I start by doing?
