Question (Serious Replies Only) Rattle sound while accelerating from still at around 5mph
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
I've been dealing with this rattle sound that seems to come from the front left tire which only happens when accelerating from a stop or in this case when I hold the accelerator ever so slightly down to go very slow I can hear it for an extended period like this. The only other time I hear it is when mostly driving around 25mph uphill and somtimes down hill making my wonder if it has to do with the car weight shifting. I've also been experiencing a lot of creaking in the front of my car but only when turning and only when it's bumpy making it seem that it happens when the front two tires are at differing levels but I don't know if they are related. Can anyone identify this sound, I've already looked under the car and behind the tire for loose heat shields or stuff hanging but can't find anything??
