Drivers usually are first made aware of emerging problems by sudden strange noises. These sounds should be addressed right away to avoid long-lasting damage. Our dealership wants to help you identify your vehicle's strange sounds. Here's a quick guide of some common abnormal sounds your car might make and what it could mean.
The brakes on a vehicle experience tremendous amount of wear and tear. Usually, squeaking indicates an underlying condition that needs to be addressed by our technicians to keep your vehicle safe on the road. Generally speaking, the squeaking sounds arise from the thinning of the brake pads and rotors. Over time, this leaves less cushion between the two metal pieces. Our technicians can determine the appropriate repairs for this particular noise.
Any unusual sounds coming from the engine can be worrisome. Rattling sounds are typically the result of pre-detonation or premature ignition. This means that the air and fuel in the engine cylinder are not being mixed properly. It may arise from inappropriate fuel, bad ignition timing, and engine overheating. Our technicians can determine the exact cause and get your car back in top shape. If engine rattling is left unaddressed, it may damage connecting rods and pistons in the engine.
If the engine is emitting more of a clicking sound than a rattle, it could be indicating issues with the oil level. This typically suggests the oil is too low, which can be checked with the dipstick. Alternatively, the upper valvetrain may be damaged.
If your vehicle starts to give a knocking sound under the hood, it is a sign that it needs a technician's attention right away. Generally, only serious and quickly-deteriorating issues will cause this noise.
Squealing from the engine may be the result of many different issues. In general, it means the belts are thin, loose, or worn. Newer vehicles typically see this with the serpentine belt. While the accessory belts are the likely culprits in older vehicles.
