When it comes to our vehicles, it is vital to pay attention to various, unusual sounds. When hearing these unusual sounds, it will benefit you to get that issue checked out as soon as possible by our highly-trained and certified Toyota technicians. If you're wondering what a sound is, we're here to help! Here we provide insight into some strange vehicle sounds and what the issue could be.
To ensure your brakes remain in good condition, they need to be serviced or adjusted on occasion. So, if your brakes make a squeaky sound, it may be indicating worn out parts, such as the rotors and brake pads.
Engine rattling could be a signal of your car having pre-detonation, or in other words, a premature ignition. Several issues may cause this problem, such as improper fuel octane or improper ignition timing. And thus, improper mixing of fuel and air occurs in the engine cylinder that leads to early ignition. Furthermore, this early ignition can damage parts, including valves, connecting rods, pistons, and more.
The clicking of the engine may indicate low or dirty oil. When your vehicle doesn't have enough clean oil to properly lubricate your car, your engine's valve lifter can malfunction, leading to clicking sounds from the engine.
Carbon buildup, bad spark plugs, and fuel octane could all be the cause of the knocking sound coming from under the hood. When getting the car diagnosed early and correctly, the diagnosis could show a low octane rating in the fuel, efficient fuel-burning restriction due to carbon deposits, wrong spark plug gap, or incorrect spark plugs.
When it comes to an engine making a squealing sound, it could be the result of a few causes. It could be due to a bad serpentine belt, also known as a drive belt, that is mainly in newer vehicles. This belt is vital to drive the power steering pump, alternator, and more.
If this sound occurs in older vehicles, it could be the result of worn or loose accessory belts. These belts operate components, like the alternator, air conditioner compressor, and power steering pump.
It is important to immediately give attention when it comes to the strange sounds of your vehicle. Contact or visit Camelback Toyota as soon as possible for diagnosing and servicing your vehicle for any strange sounds.
