| Post subject: | help with hollow rattle sound |
looking for some suggestions on where to start looking.....ever since it has gotten colder(MN cold) jeep has developed a hollow rattle sound that is most noticeable while easy acceleration/deceleration right around 10-15 mph where you are on and off the pedal quickly. Thought at first it was an exhaust rattle but things look ok. The sound is also there slightly at idle, car in neutral but so subtle i can't trace it. Motor mount possible...I know when it gets cold i get a lot more vibration thru the whole vehicle as the mounts stiffen with colder temps. Doesn't seem to make any clunks going from reverse to forward with foot on the brake. Thanks for any thoughts. |

My guess... Motor mounts. If they have never been replaced, you can bet they are shot. Mine were shot at 47K, and I did not replace them until 79K. What a world of difference it made! |
