squealing

Just picked up a 2004 Explorer NBX today with a 4.6. Bought it from a girl who says she changed all the coil packs and when she went to crank it, it now has a squealing sound coming from the driver side valve cover area. Someone checked the codes but cleared them and it has not been run enough...

I have a 1997 Ford Explorer V8 and last night all of a sudden it started making a god awful noise and a strong burning rubber smell as well where the pulley system is. I've read other posts but still not sure if its replace both idler pulleys or just one and to replace alternator or not. And...

Hello Everyone - So I bought a 2003 Explorer XLT. I really do love it. I have a small issue... When coasting and I am off the accelerator, I can hear a wooshing sound coming from the rear end. Brake pads look to be newer motor craft but are making a squealing like the indicators make when...

I have a 1999 Explorer AWD 5.0. Every once in awhile it would make a chirp noise when driving. About two weeks ago a loud squealing started and the CEL came on. Took it to a shop, had water pump, clutch fan and idler pulley replaced. Mechanic said that the noise was still present so he rev'd it...

I have a 4.0L 6 Cylinder 2007 Explorer Eddie Bauer that is about 40k miles. When I drive I hear a high pitched squealing sound. I have had this problem in the past but it had resolved for the most part, now I am starting to notice it on a somewhat regular basis. While driving I am hearing a...

Ok so i bought a replacement ps pump for my 95 explorer ohv. In the box with the pump (it was the one with reservoir all attached) was the pulley installation tool and a bunch of O rings. In the instructions it says nothing about what to do with them. It does have one packet of them though...

A few days ago I started getting a squealing noise coming from under the hood whenever I accelerated on my way to work. Later that day I looked at the belt but it appears fine, no cracks and all of the grooves are still there. I noticed some dry mud on one of the pulleys. I cleaned it off and...
