Rattling & Chugging Noise
You may hear low-pitched chugging & rattling noise as you drive. It is caused by damage & blockage in the exhaust system. Numerous components in your suspension system, such as coil springs and stabilizer links, can be broken down over time.
Brake Squeal
Another common car noise is the squealing noise from the brakes. Worn-out brake pads can cause this noise. If you didn’t replace them for a long while, then get them replaced as soon as possible.
Squealing under the Hood
This is one of the trouble-causing signals that your vehicle can give you. This could come from shabby accessory belts that drive your power steering pump. Related to this, another common problem is low power steering fluids. This can also make your car squeal while turning.
Grinding in the Gear
You can experience this while shifting gears. This could come from a clutch with lousy tuning. In the mechanic’s language, it is often used to describe gear clash with an improper shifting of transmission.
Knocking & Popping Noise in the Engine
Both of these sounds can be alarming for your engine’s health. Knocking occurs due to the lack of fuel efficiency that your vehicle needs to be fit. Multiple factors, such as clogged fuel filters or bad spark plugs, can cause a popping sound in the engine.
