Are you currently hearing a rattling sound coming from underneath your car, truck, or SUV? Do you hear a grinding noise every time you make a right-hand turn? Sounds that are coming from your vehicle that you can't explain are not comforting. Your car is making these sounds for a variety of different reasons, from the small and inconsequential to the large and expensive. At Crest Nissan of Frisco, we believe that being informed is a great way to reduce anxiety and make you a happier car owner. Below are a few common sounds and what might be causing them.
If you've heard a squeaking noise when you apply the brakes, there could be a number of causes. One of the more common reasons you may hear squeaking or squealing when you apply the brakes is when you have worn brake pads and rotors. You may also have broken anti-rattle clips. The service technicians at Crest Nissan of Frisco can do a brake inspection and diagnose your issue.
Depending on when the engine is rattling, it can mean a lot of different things. Take note of when your engine is rattling. Does it do it when the car is idle or when it is accelerating? Possible causes of an engine rattle include a cracked flywheel, catalytic converter issue, the need for a new belt tensioner, or a faulty heat shield.
Drivers who hear a clicking sound coming from their engine should make an appointment with our service center to diagnose the issue. There are several reasons you could be hearing a clicking sound, including low oil pressure, a faulty oil pump, bad spark plugs, or an exhaust leak.
Generally speaking, an engine knock can occur when the cylinders in your car don't have the right mixture of air and fuel. There are many reasons you could be hearing this knocking sound like faulty spark plugs, carbon deposits, and low-quality gasoline.
The most common reason that a person might hear their engine squeal is the need for a new serpentine belt. In many cases, this issue will also lead to problems like difficult steering and overheating. Our factory-trained, Nissan-certified service technicians can check the belt to see if it is cracked or loose.
