So I've had this front end banging noise for about the last couple years on my X. A few other threads have described the problem, but none offer a concrete solution. its a banging noise that sounds like the 4wd is trying to engage when it shouldn't be. on acceleration, and light throttle, even de-acceleration sometimes. So i guess, my question is.. Is this most likely a transfer case, transfer case shift motor, or front axle disconnect issue. Lets remember the banging stops once 4wd auto is selected and 4x4 auto and low both seem to work very well and engage properly when selected, so why does 2wd mode clunk?? Thanks
