Spent nearly 12 hours in the drivers seat today and a new rattle nearly drove me insane. It’s coming from the overhead panel where the sunglasses holder, lights, and moonroof controls is located and mainly presents itself at highway speeds. I wedged an old gift card in there to make it stop...
I've got a 92 HZJ73 with the 1HZ ---- I've noticed some rattle / buzzing noise when I reach around 1.9-2k rpms and higher. Best I can tell it seems to be coming from near the engine.
It happens whether I'm driving or sitting in neutral and rev the engine. Its much easier to hear in the low...
I've been trying to figure out the source of a clack/clunk/rattle that is getting worse and occurs when I drive over rough road at low speeds. I've scoured Mud for leads and gotten some good feedback on one of my prior posts on this issue. I took it to a new garage to get a fresh perspective...
I'm chasing a rattle/rumble in my truck, but am I chasing my tail? I have a virtually all new suspension. EMU with U-bolt flip kit. New Orion TC, balanced original drive lines with new bearings. Knuckles rebuilt. Rebuilt diffs (ARB lockers and new ring and pinion gears), rebuilt brakes and...
I put a can of r134a in after getting a reading that it was a little low and hearing compressing noises coming from the evap area. I still hear these noises but the readings are normal and the vents are blowing cold. However, when I look at my sight glass, it’s empty. Do these just fail over...
When I accelerate I am hearing a tinny metallic rattle coming from underneath the LX on the PS. I have read a few other threads and I've checked all the heat shields on the exhaust upstream from the cats, and the shields bolted to the bottom of the body. Everything is secure without any...
I'm trolling for ideas.
I've narrowed down my exhaust rattle to the baffles in the muffler coming loose. It's about 18 months old and non-OEM.
So far I have used percussive maintenance and crimped them in place by crushing the outer skin around them with a ball-peen hammer. But that's not...
Hi All
Just noticed that there is a hell of a rattle coming from this area on my high mileage lx470.
What it sounds like is a thrust bearing but this being an auto ....
Anyone have any experience with this as a common point of failure?
So, over the last two weeks I’ve been trying to diagnose a problem… the rattle you hear in the video.
I’ve replaced the tensioner pulley and assembly, fan clutch, fan clutch bracket, alternator, and idler pulley. None of which seems to actually have been the issue once I got it all buttoned...
I’m inviting any and all wild speculation about the metallic rattle/clank that occurs when I drive over rutted roads or healthy potholes. Basically, if the bump is big enough, I’ll get the noise. And, unfortunately, the bump does not need to be too big.
I was confident that it was the sway bar...
Hey y’all- new to the Landcruiser life.
Picked up a triple locked 80 Series yesterday (‘94) anticipating a project.
After driving for about 10 minutes, I noticed a whining sound when hitting around 25mph.
It took no time for this to turn into a horrible grinding/ rattling sound.
Sounds...
Hey everyone.
Appreciate all the help on here.
As I'm on here today getting ready to assemble almost a complete new coolant system, I'm reminded of a noise that came only for a few seconds then gone for the rest of the day.
It sounds like somebody dropped a couple pebbles down a plastic pipe...
Hello! I've been viewing this site regularly since I picked up my 02 LX earlier this year, but the time has come that I need to reach out and get some help from the people that know these best.
Over the past month the motor has been getting a bit louder at idle, the noise was a bit like a...
I have a 2009 200 series with about 95K Kms on it.
I'm running Kings 3.0 all around with Dobinsons 50mm coils in the rear.
I have a rattle in the rear somewhere I can seem to isolate.
It almost sounds like there's a play in the rear pads but the sound doesn't change with the foot on the brake...
Hey all,
Was recently driving out on the highway and broke down about 100 miles from home.
The LC suddenly lost gears and developed this rattling sounds, see video.
Does anyone have any idea what the noise is?
Take care
It had been driving me crazy since I bought the vehicle six months ago - a metallic rattle right above my head somewhere in the sunroof.
I scoured the forum threads and it seemed their could be several causes. None of the suggested ‘simple solutions’ worked, so finally I braced myself and...
Hello all! First post here. Thank you for your help.
My 100 Series makes a very rattly sound when going over bumps. Almost sounds like a chain clinking together. I can't figure out what it is and need help diagnosing it. I have posted a video where you can hear it clearly. Thank you!
I bought a 2001 100 series a couple of months ago and noticed that the heat shield on my driver side cat is missing while I was looking for the famous " heat shield rattle".
The noise is probably from the passenger side heat shield which is barely holding on. I'll probably just buy a hose clamp...
