    Growling noise that sounds like a wheel bearing coming from somewhere but taking hard turns to right or left doesnt change sound.

    Does the differential change sound up and over hills or in my case today noticed it changing sound on a smooth uneven road where the car was shifting its weight from side to side rapidly. Noise would come and go in and out as I am driving straight down this road.

    Growling noise that sounds like a wheel bearing coming from somewhere but taking hard turns to right or left doesnt change sound.

    Thanks everyone.... I have tried that and there isnt any difference in sound its consistant going straight or turning in a bend in the road. The sound is really pronouced at speeds of 40-45 plus, under that it is barely audible. The only sound difference I hear is going up and over hills. It...

    I have already replace the front left wheel bearing and it did not make a difference although it seems like it maybe a tad quieter. Turning left or right at higher speeds does not make the sound go away like they tell you when test for front wheel bearings but it does make a sound change when...

    Clicking coming from drivers side dash at the top. HVAC Actuator?

    2007 Tahoe ...From the research I have done it seems that it is the actuator / blend door. It sounds like it is right underneath the top of the drivers dash. But all the research I am doing on how to get to it mostly mentions passenger side. So am a bit confused as to the locations of this...

    Trying to find source of metal grind on first acceleration after replacing motor mount.

    Thank you for the all suggestions, it helps a lot. I did get under there and shook it around the best I could. I do have a 4x4. The sound was pretty close to what I hear with how much I could move it but couldn't tell excactly if it would be something I would hear from inside the truck. It...

    Trying to find source of metal grind on first acceleration after replacing motor mount.

    Thanks for taking the time to answer... I thought of the calipers but the sound is very distinct. also the slower I accel the less noise it makes. It even happens when I have slowed down not stopped, to make a left turn... as I am turning you can hear this metal shift. It does not do it when I...

    Trying to find source of metal grind on first acceleration after replacing motor mount.

    Thanks, I will fill out all the details. As fas as the truck is concerned. The noise only happens when first in motion, not during the brake and accelerate test. Wouldnt the brake acell test show a bad pass motor mount?

    Trying to find source of metal grind on first acceleration after replacing motor mount.

    I have and 2007 tahoe, as I was first driving it I notice several noises both a clunk and some metal grinding as I I first accelerate, so I checked the drivers side motor mount and it was bad. One of the tests I did was to accelerate in place with the brake on and it did indeed shift the motor...

    Broken Motor Mounts

    Hello All, I am getting a clunk when first accelerating, it seems very mild. Hard to tell but might be coming from the right side but not sure. How can you tell which motor mount is broken. I have read thru some of the comments and by holding the brake and then applying the gas seems to be a...
