Thread: Rattling/Ticking Noise

Was hoping you guys could help me figure out what this noise is. Video is taken from the passenger side wheel under the car.

Video is private.

Does it work now?

If its the same noise as this... (click pic for vid, it goes to Photobucket) take off the flexplate cover (plastic) with engine off and see if you can easily slide the starter gear back and forth on the shaft with a finger. If so, replace starter. It should snap back. Mine got real loud on turns, its jacked up on one side in the vid so it would make the noise. Sounds like yours.

Thank you! Sounds are almost identical. Glad is nothing too major.
