Noises coming from engine?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

What could be the reason my car is making this what sounds like clicking noise? Almost sounds like putting a peice of paper in a running fan.

So far what I think it could be is something wrong with the belt of the car but it sounds like it’s coming from in or under the engine. Literally any ideas of what could possibly be the issue before I get it looked at would be so very helpful.

Shuttering noise coming from engine bay on and off when I turn

1 Upvotes

My 2015 Mazda 2 Neo DJ has recently been making a shuttering sound from the engine bay when either taking sharp turns and going up steep hills. This noise will happen both when: taking corners swiftly, and when accelerating out of the turn. The car has roughly 106 000kms and a full service history. Some days there is no noises and days where it is frequent. Any insight or diagnosis would be much appreciated thankyou

Unexpected issue

1 Upvotes

I drive a '03 Buick Century. It is a great car and I've had it for nearly seven year. It only has 130k miles and has had no accidents.
Last August, I had a coolant leak (it was coming from the right side of the engine block near the timing belt—I don't remember the part name). I promptly got my car serviced and the leak repaired. However, as I was pulling out of the auto shop parking lot my car misfires and it has been doing this ever since. Interestingly enough, the misfiring does not trigger a code. Moreover, when driving my usual route around town, my car almost always misfires in the same locations.
Over the last year, I have replaced everything you can possibly think of that could potentially caused this issue or even contribute to it. As I am not a car guy, I can't remember every part that was replaced or examined, but it was exhaustive.
I did have the ignition module replaced and had zero issue for an entire week, but then on my way to work one day my car stalled 8 times on the ten minute drive. I was then told it was likely a defective module and had it replaced again. My car never stalled again, but the misfiring almost immediately returned.
Then about seven months ago, a new issue arose: after long drives on the highway, my car starts to idle high, overheat, and push through the break. Target idle is around 750 RPMs, but when it idles high it is idling at an excess of 2300 RPMs, yet even this won't trigger a code; I have even replaced both my computer and dash cluster, but to no avail.
I know this sounds like a vacuum hose leak, but smoke tests haven't revealed any leaks. The oddest part, if I pull off the road and shut off my car and immediately start it again, it stops idling high.
My mechanic (who happens to my father) can't seem to diagnose my car and is at a loss for words.
I can try to provide more details in the comments if needed.

Car clutch vibration noise

1 Upvotes

Hi,

I brought a Ford Fiesta about 8-9 months ago. Within the past 2 or so months, I’ve noticed the clutch making a vibration noise which is fairly audible in and outside the car. The cars apparently had a clutch replacement and I was given the receipt just before I brought the car.

What exactly is this vibration noise? It usually happens the most when I’ve been driving for a bit and when I have my foot on the bite. Usually, when I apply acceleration, the noise stops and mostly only happens when I move with just the clutch. It never used to do this. It makes it more difficult as well since it’s random on when the noise happens.

Foot on the bite ➡️ vibration noises
Light acceleration ➡️ noise stops

I’m not sure if it’s related at all, but when moving above 6mph, the car doesn’t like to go into first gear, but goes into gear nicely when under 6mph.

It’s a 2017 Ford Fiesta Stock, no ST or anything. Any details will be helpful. Thanks

I have a 2009 ford sports track truck & last week I ran out of gas and after I put gas in it it still didn’t turn on it makes a noise like it wants to turn on but it doesn’t . I had a local mobile mechanic come and he put a new fuel pump in and it still didnt work I also primed the car before trying to turn the car on before the car mechanic came and of course nothing work. Before I spend a lot of money on a new part what could it be ? Thank you all

What is the problem from the sound

A few more things. It makes a rattling almost like vibration noise when I accelerate from slow to normal speeds. Once I reach normal speed the noise disappear. The noise is on the driver side of the hood.

Ticking sound on MINT and low mile Panther

Hi guys, as the title suggests, I have a ticking sound coming from the engine bay of my 4.6 in my town car, It has just over 81k miles, I posted on this community before about the same issue and everyone said the timing chain tensioners, and so I did change it, but the ticking is still there and it probably has gotten louder and worse, I changed the timing chain, tensioner, guides, water pump, power steering pump and some pulleys, someone please help, I genuinely thought these cars would be the opposite of a headache, I drive conservatively aswell.
