    Brake light blinks on and off during Accelleration

    My brake light blinks on and off real quick one time during acceleration when the truck has just been started?? I do have a sound coming from my drivers side. Sounds like a wheel bearing but I replaced that a yr. and a half ago?

    This Rattle is Really Irritating!

    I have a noise in the passenger compartment which sounds like an old-style baby rattle. It occurs when the vehicle is in motion at about 40 mph and faster. It sounds like it is coming from directly behind the instrument cluster. I have spent a lot of effort trying to locate it without...

    2002 Ford Explorer making grinding noise when coasting

    I'm having a problem with my Explorer thats a little hard to describe. It started about 2 months ago (after it sat for about a year in my driveway, with startups just to keep it going and that battery charged) I've been using it daily now, and there is a grinding noise that happens only when...

    Loud noises!

    After a 10 hour drive, my explorer is now emitting a deep, sinister sounding roar which reverberates around the cabin. It is loud from 0 to 55 mph, and then it gets quieter at 60 mph. Louder at 65 mph. Louder at higher RPMS. What is it? Before/ after pics: WHY NOT TO USE MUFFLER REPAIR...

    Engine wouldn't start, then a servo noise, then it starts.

    Hello all. This would be my first post, I've learned quite a bit so far and thank you for that. My issue was/is I tried to start my 00 explorer sport and it just cranked and cranked. The battery is new, the starter should be fine along with the alternator. I stopped cranking and looked into the...

    On a 1999 Merc Mountaineer, 5.0, 4R70W trans. I am getting a short chirp sound when shifting into Reverse or Drive. Also hearing it a bit when going into Neutral. I am suspecting it's a worn band as it tightens and releases. Can anyone confirm this or provide other possibilities to check...

    4R70W Reverse Gear Noise

    I have a 1998 Explorer with a 5.0L engine and 4R70W transmission. When I put it into reverse, it makes a whining noise similar to the noise a locked transfer case makes in 4 low. When it started doing it, it would only make the noise until I gave it gas. Lately it hasn't been stopping when I rev...

    Whistle Sound

    I have a weird noise coming from my 04 Explorer. It just started about a week or two ago. It seems to be getting more common. I just put a bug deflector on my hood. Not sure if that has anything to do with it. It sounds like a high pitched whistle. At first when I noticed it, I would...

    2002 AWD Mountaineer Question

    I have noticed an odd noise, perhaps described as a clunk, when driving fairly fast on partially snowpacked highways. It doesn't do it on totally snowpacked lanes, or on clear lanes, just when its patchy. It feels like the AWD sensors are confused and trying to make all the wheels get...

    Torque converter rattle?

    I have a 97 Explorer Sport that has developed a rattle that appears to be comming from the Torque Converter area. There is no noise when the truck is running in park but is very noticable when placed into gear. My first guess is the torque converter itself. I'm not a transmission guy so I...

    '97 Explorer XL ,Loud Sound and Lurches When Heat or Air is On

    :us:I hope I'm describing this well because it's a strange(to me) problem. When I turn on the air conditioner or heater, there is a loud noise and the vehicle "lurches" as though something is stuck or locking up. It happens if the fan is on by itself too, but not as fast, and not with the...

    Squeaky Brake Pedal

    Well our old Mountaineer did this at around 100k miles but now our 06 EB is doing with about 30k.:mad: Sometimes when you press the brake pedal it spueaks or makes a rubber rubbing sound and you can feel it in the pedal. Sounds like maybe the bushing that the pedal pivots on. Does anybody else...
