this guy is giving all he got just to teach others. very informative. thank you
yes, you are right, this type of people is very rare to find.
But he's high, right?
He is awesome!!!
My car only makes a noise when I’m wearing white nikes and eating a chicken quesadilla with sour cream and when I have someone in the backseat
@@TrailVapor does it truly matter? "But" what, if we may?
I have serviced my own car since I was eighteen. I'm still doing servicing now I'm sixty five. Different cars though. This man knows what he is talking about.
I love a lady who fixes her own cars! Self sufficient, that's what it's all about. 💖
I'm here trying to troubleshoot an issue myself.

For a quick test, if you lower the driver's window, then open the driver's door fully, you can grab the top area of the door firmly and push it down, using the door as a "lever" to move the car up and down on the suspension, and if there are suspension noises, you will probably hear them immediately (thanks to the Car Wizard Channel for this tip). Engine mount noises can be heard and/or felt if you put the car in gear, and while pushing the brake pedal firmly, accelerate slightly then let off, so the car doesn't move, and you can feel a bump when you let off on the gas, when the engine falls back on the broken mount. If the hood is open, you or your buddy will be able to see one side of the engine rise and fall as you do this. Because engines only rotate in one direction, the torque of the engine pushes down on one side engine mount and pulls up on the other side engine mount. Some vehicles have several engine mounts in different locations, so the effect of the torque on the mounts can vary.
Just finding this video in 2020 - this gives me hope that I'll find the mystery noise that mechanics haven't been able to locate. Just subscribed!
You are a special breed, my man! The only person I know that would spend that much time & effort tracking down & diagnosing an issue is....me. Seriously, it’s been 20 years since I’ve been able to find a mechanic willing to spend more than 15-20 mins “inspecting” my car. This last one (at a dealership) didn’t even test drive my car and sent me an “inspection report” with a bunch of green check marks (meaning: everything is a-okay 100% 👌). They installed unbalanced wheels on my car last month, just before an 8 hour road trip at interstate speeds. My car’s been steering itself to the left ever since & started making that rusty hinge squeaky bed sound on acceleration & braking. Looks like I’m spending my weekend fixing it myself.
But, back to you....this video has a ton of great information & the kind of tips/tricks that usually have to be learned the hard way. Thank you for taking the time to share & for caring so much about what you do. That seems to be getting increasingly more difficult to find.
I have never met a mechanic as thorough and detailed minded with the patience and ability to explain in (an almost poetic way 😉) so people can and will understand and want to listen..! Excellent job my friend...!!! Golf clap!👏🏁😂😉
I'm so happy you found the problem. So many times garages just start trial and error replacements at owner expense, and the problem STILL isn't fixed. I've also had shops find the problem, or make a problem, send it back until the owner is so frustrated with being nickle and dimed, and then the shop offers to 'take the car off your hands' for a song and then resells it. The corner shop did that to a friend and almost to me until I figured it out.
One of the first clues was his two mechanics would shoot each other an embarrassed and uncomfortable look like: "He's doing it to another customer". I'd talk to them, but they wouldn't meet my eyes and couldn't give me straight answers about the repairs.
Your a great teacher. I have a college degree in Automotive Technology AAS. Your easy to listen to and not an egomaniac. I haven't worked in a professional garage in 30 years. But trouble shooting never changes. Keep up the great work.
I never take the time to leave a comment on any videos I watch. I have watched several of your trouble shooting videos over the years and you are very knowledgable and take the time to explain things very well. Thank you and keep up the good work!
Great video, Eric! I'm a pretty experienced amateur mechanic (been working on cars for 50 years) and have done a lot of work on suspension, brakes, steering and the like, but I still learned a LOT from this video! The orange dust trick, for example - very cool! Also, it was densely packed with information. Nothing worse than spending time watching people turn a wrench over and over until they remove an oil pan - the time spent watching this video was all useful! Thanks!
Every one of your videos I watched has been very informative and educational. This one is no exception. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
Direct to the point with no aggravating background music. Thanks Eric.
Great job Eric. Its good that you've shown a problem that you thought was a typical suspension issue, but that turned out to be an engine mount. An inexperienced person may not find this as they are just focused underneath the car. Also, thank you for going over all the potential areas that may be a problem and discussing it instead of just finding the problem and ending it there.
hi Eric, thank you for another great video. one thing i have found that works well for diagnosing movement was to lift the vehicle by the frame till the tire is about 2 inches off the ground and the place a small block of wood (i use a foot long piece of 2x4) up next to the tire and then get a long pry bar and lever the tire up and down (simulating the bumps while driving). i then look and listen for failed ball joints etc, i try it while steering is all the way in each direction and also straight. i just thought i would mention this as i find it easier than trying to pry right on the ball joint to check, and you can look at multiple components at the same time. hope someone might find this useful. As for my problem i had checked all the usual suspects and couldnt find the problem but after your video i looked again and it turned out to be the power steering rack mount cracked on one side. I never thought to look there. I learned something new today, thanks again.
I like that method Karlo, thanks for mentioning it.

You are a smart man - I never thought of that. It may well lead me to the answer behind a really annoying crackling/popping sound on right turns.... I might just get a long 2x4 and see if I can recreate the noise...
@@pingpong9656 did u find out what it was. The way you explained your problem, it sounds like mine
OK. I've been watching Eric's videos for awhile. But it just struck me that this guy is a mechanical freaking genius. Suspension is very complicated to wrap your head around.
I drive an 04 X5 and this is the most expensive car I’ve ever owned (as In constant repairs) so I think this video is great for trying to find and fix issues yourself. Ive been taken too many times by repair men (being a woman) so am trying to learn some things on my own. Keep making great videos! Thanks!
Thank you for taking the time to research, film and share this information. It is appreciated. Peace Bro!
There's an absolute plethora of valuable advice here. And it all comes from a guy who really knows what he's talking about. Best of all - we get all that advice for free! Gotta love ETCG!!!
Awesome video. Trying to diagnose this issue on my VW Touareg and this was very helpful. Thanks!
God video-and I like his honesty " I spent days looking for a noise"
Haven't we all buddy.
Many years ago I was working in haulage and one guy was having trouble with a Volvo F86 articulated semi - an intermittent click from the streering.
The unit was nearly brand new, about 6 months old or so.
Ended up with everybody in the place trying to find it, including the manager.
There were 6 of us in the pit once, and after changing the steering box it seemed ok, but on one turn it clicked again.
One guy in a rage hit the spring hanger bracket with his hammer- and he noise disappeared!
It was a dry shackle pin transmitting the noise and vibration through the chassis and up to the steering wheel.
Only thing Eric forgot was to say that noises (and vibration)travel through metal a lot and can easily appear to be from a different source.
Man this post is valuable even years later.
2021 and im learning how to check suspension this was extremely useful.
Great tutorial!
This car, trouble shooting tutorial is definitely in my top 5.
If you have the time, please consider filming a tutorial on the removal and replacement of the tie rod boot, inner and outer tie rod for the 1997 Honda CRV series; i.e. where to locate floor jack and jack stands under the vehicle, how to remove rings on the boot, etc. If you already have a video that demonstrates this work, let me know.
Cheers m8
dude you are my go to guy for car stuff! you have helped so much thanks!
Eric, thanks for this very detailed, very much common sense presentation. you are a very honest and patient technician which in our industry is hard to find ( based on many customer complaints). keep up the great work and equally great videos! Al from Detroit Mi.
This was very helpful, informative and logically laid out. Thank you for taking the time to make this. Stay dirty!
SUPER HELPFUL! I had to use a new mechanic to fix a noise. He said it was my CV axle.I was confused because I just got the right one changed out. He said it was the left one that needs it now. I hear the noise on the right though. EricTheCarGuy confirmed that if the noise is on the left, it's the right one that needs changed. If the noise is on the right, it's the left one that needs changed. Phew! Thank goodness I now don't feel like I'm getting ripped off. THANK YOU for being so thorough!! Yay!
thanks eric for all the tips, I’ve been working on cars for 50 years and taught me plenty....you are da man
Thank you very much for taking so much time and efforts making this video. Very informative. Very enlightening. For a newbie like me, it is very educational. Now I have some basic idea of what to look for if I hear car noises. You are a great teacher. Thanks again.
"And if you don't have any movement there? then you don't have any movement there. ." haha very good
I thought I was the only one......Best ism I ever heard.
Will only watch his car videos...he's the best of the best....keep up the good work...
Love this guy and anyone who shares their knowledge and wisdom with the world with the intentions of helping and empowering others is literally mf Legend in my opinion.
Hey Eric you have done it again, a lot of info on suspension noses you hit so many spots including the Orange dust. A wonderful video thanks.
Very comprehensive and informative video - even for a novice like me who knows very little about cars. I know lots about computers but little about cars - seems interesting though You covered every noise there is and every part it could be, explained very well. I'll bookmark this video for future wheel noise diagnosis. I was trying to find out what my car noise problem was so I could estimate how much it was gonna cost me. Thanks to your video I'm fairly sure it's a cv joint. When I turn right the grinding noise is loud but goes away when I turn left, so it's the left cv joint. Thanks alot! I wish you were local so you could fix my ride. You seem like a cool and smart dude!
Tq bro.
Eric Thanks for producing this video ! It really helps as I have a noise coming from my right front suspension area as in this video. Absolutely THE BEST video for this type of problem !
Super helpful videos Eric, always stoked when ErictheCarGuy is the first suggested video for a problem I'm having.
I just changed my front motor mount and it rides great I still here a little bit of sound on the right side I will check it out soon but the video was very informative THANKS..
Great vid! It explained things that I'd never have thought of, and for damned sure a lot of things that a run of the mill mechanic wouldn't think of either to be honest. I've run across my share of those over the years to know! Very thorough, easy to understand in laymans terms, and how much more info could you possibly want for exactly what the vid is titled..."...Suspension Noises 101", NOT your final exam to be ASE certified! I'd give this 5 thumbs up but alas, I can only give one. Thanks for all the info and for taking the time to teach the ones that want to learn when you really didn't have to, and by some remarks they don't appreciate it anyway but I'd say most of us do. Thanks again and keep on keepin' on!
Moral of this video, noises could be coming from your seat's tracks and mechanics would be like "yeah, that's definitely a bad control arm bushing" I've had that happen two times to me. Which is exactly why I went completely DIY style got myself a whole bunch of tools. Your videos help a lot. Much obliged and appreciated.
Very cool. I didn't think the video was too long because there were so many useful concepts for a guy like me who is really technical and into troubleshooting. This was my first ETCG video and I subscribed!
thanks Eric. great Info! God bless you.
Cheers mate!! Good tips and really helpful!
Very informative video and one of the best I have seen so far. I often think that one persons perspective on noise is different from another and that is where you addressed it. Thanks for taking the time to document your actions and posting!
Great job! I learned a lot by your video. I have some knocking in the front when I go down brick streets. I will learn from you and find my noise!
Awesome video.. Keep it up.. God bless you.. Thanks alot mate
The engine mounts for the 3G TLs are notorious for failing prematurely. I replaced all mounts when I bought my 04 TL at 150,000 miles. That side mount is approx $50 OEM, but the front & rear mounts are a bit pricey at around $130 or so each.
This TL does not seem well taken care of, judging from the interior dust, worn out serp belt and that side mount.
You were very thorough and full of useful information. Great Video
How do you even think to mention literally every possible scenario that may cause a phantom noise on our vehicles? Respect to you etcg1.💯
Same sound my car is making on it's front passenger side as well. Plus I see a lot of grease on of the Control Arm bolts which I think is grease slowly leaking out of the Strut or Shock or whatever my vehicle has; I'll have to check my Chilton's manual. Thank you for taking the time to video this :)
7:40 As always, excellent tutorial. My favorite part, "If you don't have any movement there, you don't have any movement there."
Man. This video alone teaches us how to diagnose all suspension-related problems. Thanks, dude!
I've never seen a more informative troubleshooting video. Awesome!
Eric real talk, great personality and all 🤑 you're the best bro!
My cars noises never show their faces if I tell anyone lol
love watching the vids eric ,i like the way you diagnose the fault instead of throwing parts at it like most mechanics do . ive got a rattleing clanging sort of noise and cant find the issue for the life of me lol but will keep looking ,this vid defo helped keep up the good work and vids
Thank you Eric! Diagnostics are the most important part of any repair. The repair itself is secondary. Poor diagnostics leads to multiple repairs. The definition of a 'backyard mechanic' is one who replaces parts until the problem is solved.
Amen
This guy is a good mechanic.
My 2002 Honda Civic started to rattle recently as I was driving, and the brakes made a grinding noise. I had installed them in the front and the back, and they worked fine.
As it turned out, a front brake caliper mounting bolt fell out, and all the noise was caused by the loose caliper vibrating. I put some threadlocker on a new bolt, and the noise is gone.
My point is that the problem may be a simple and inexpensive one. As Eric shows, you need to be patient and do a lot of checking in different places to find out what's wrong.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. It's awesome to see people sharing their wisdom.
Excellent video Eric! Thank you soooo much.
I'm about to get dirty and find out what's clunkin' on the Jeep.
Your help is much appreciated sir.
Great video Eric. Thank you
I can't understand the dislikes. I thought the guy was pretty thorough.
+Paul Bevillard I agree with you paul, the only way he could have done more, is if he came over to your house and did the actual repair...
+Paul Bevillard Some people just get mad when there's no titties.
+JeredtheShy You guys are hilarious.... And i agree to that, no reason for dislikes.
"We don't need no engine mount"???????? WTF IS IT FOR THEN? Surely it serves some purpose.
THE BRONZEVILLEBOXER He said it as a joke.
Great vid and very thorough! Also like your reminders on safety whenever working underneath cars! Excellent pls keep it up!
Eric, Thanks for the video, it's very informative and I will try this on my car to check for suspension noise.
After installing new ball joints and tie rods, I was hearing a thumping noise. I went underneath shook everything as hard as I could including coil and strut assembly. I tested the balls joints by trying to separate the arm and ball joints with a crowbar (as shown @ 7:20). Since my ball joints were bolted on, it turned out some of the bolts on the passenger side were not sufficiently tight. Tightened all and applied blue thread locker and noise gone.
Correct solution for a lady is to have join relation ship with some one who has a balls to fix your car. You testing wrong balls. ;O)

Me: "Please don't be an engine mount...please don't be an engine mount...please don't be an engine mount." Dammit. It was an engine mount.
Shit bro
Thanks for the video. This actually helped me diagnose my bad passenger side engine mount on my 2006 Accord EX. I was having the exact same noises. It was driving me crazy because I had already rebuilt the suspension. Last thing I did was put in new HONDA strut assemblies and the noise seem to get worse, so for a while I thought I got a be strut mount on one of the assemblies. After watching this video.. it all made sense. Ordered new OEM engine mount and noise it gone!! Thanks Eric!
I think I have a bad engine mount on my Celica gt..... I just changed the suspension putting adjustable coilovers on the car and still is making the same sound it made before I changed suspension.... Now this video is going to have me check both right and left engine mount... Thank Eric the car guy.
What would your suspicion be for a squeaky mattress like noise from the passenger front suspension? This is assuming the shocks are in perfect order btw.
Alexander Stewart my Nissan sentra 2008 does it in the back.
2003 Pontiac Grand am with a 3.4L V6
This past week
i completely replaced 2 Wheel hub bearings/ 2 rotors/ 1 set of front brake pads/ 2 calipers / 2 Lower Ball Joints / 2 Outer Tie Rod ends, and 1 CV Shaft and still have squealing and a rubbing sound when braking, the booths on the
old CV Shaft are hard and the New shaft is soft rubber, could that make the weird sounds.
the machanic i think he took me for a ride cost me almost $ 2500.
Eric i wish you were here in Canada.
Try looking up grease/lube points, particularly where the caliper makes contact with the brake pads.
I just got 95% smarter diagnosing abnormal car noises... super informative well worth the time. Thanks Eric for taking your time to do this.
I wish people who are having suspension issues is recommended this video first. I saw many videos but this video helped me find my issue, which was the ball joint squeaking.
hey eric, im driving a 2010 mbenz e350 4matic. im having an issue that when i drive, i hear noises on the road. i checked the suspension and i checked to see if the hood might be loose but everythings seems to be in proper order. if u find out id gladly appreciate it. thank you!
you look like you're 10, i highly doubt you drive a 2010 mercedes. that and "when i drive, i hear noises on the road" sounds about as stupid as it gets. stop trolling kid go play need for speed.
and if you were serious, how in the fucking world would you expect someone to diagnose your car over the internet?
lewk937 im 20 stupid fuck. U should be the one to go play need for speed instead of youtubin lookin for people to annoy.
Demir Pupovic Didn't say you were 10, you just look like it.
and you act like it. So my original comment still stands.
Following the video, I'd guess overinflated tires or wrong offset on the rims. The problem in this video actually turned out to be a bad motor mount, which it's probably not the issue in a 4 year old car, but look for accident damage like suspension parts rubbing against each other especially on the rear of a FWD car where the braces are much weaker. Polished metal was the clue here; doubt you'll see any rust on yours yet.
@@HighestRank uh vou
Hold up let me try something “slams on the gas ⛽️ 💨” lol
This is a great video Eric because it explains the noises by actually listening to the noise that you recorded. I have a suggestion that would help others diagnose any problem whether it's a suspension noise or not. In your case, you found it was an engine mount so it wasn't really a suspension issue. So my suggestion is that as a general practice, before you actually fix ANY noise, that you first take the vehicle out for a drive and record any of the sounds you're hearing. That way, AFTER you've fixed the issue and possibly made a video out of that repair, it would be very helpful to the viewer/listener if you could put in the clip about what the issue sounded like before you fixed it. The reason being is that there are several videos out there that basically tell you how to fix the problem once the problem is identified. The problem is that many viewers will hear a noise, but they have no clue as to what's causing it. So if you played the audio of the noise during your repair of the issue (because you prerecorded the noise/s) then I think it would help viewers hear what the problem actually sounded like. I have a 2006 Ford Five Hundred that is making some different sounds at high speeds and as might be expected, they are not the noises you recorded this video. Right now, I don't know what the noise is for sure but I think it's a CV joint. But as a viewer, all I can do is go by the sound I heard....see where I'm going? So if the video showed the sound/s you can hear for a CV joint I think it would help viewers and make your videos that much better. Keep up the good work!
Thank you for your in depth needed information!..Saving this to my favorites!
I have a Mark VI Jetta GLI with 5000 miles on it that started making a sound like waving around a plastic bag whenever I go over small bumps in the road at around 40 mph. Checked the tires, checked for anything loose, and I can't find anything. Anyone have any ideas?
I found a new one! The other day i took a sharp u turn, suddenly i hear a skeaky sound in the driver side. I check everything, long story short, the squeaky sound was made by the bottom of the driver seat, the SOB sounded like a squeaky ball joint!
"Orange Dust",,,,,,,awesome tip sir, love the video.....helped me troubleshoot my sway bar bushing issue
Eric, I am new to estimating. Seemed the training just breezed over suspension components. Thanks man this vid was very helpful.
I have a ford fiesta 2011 >> and I always hear a grinding noise on the driving side of the vehicle every time I make a left or right. turn>>
yes it was a bad wheel bearing on the right side>>
yes I second the motion. Wheel bearin.
my 2006 Chevy Equinox is making a squilling noise somewhere from the front of car or under the hood but only does it when you reach a speed of 30mph or above and keeps squilling until you slow down and as you slow down it slows down and stops squilling around 30 mph and doesnt do it at all while idle- please help
I had my mechanic check it and I did have a bad wheel bearing that he fixed but it didn't stop the noise- he also checked all the brakes and they were fine. He couldnt find anywhere the noise could be coming from- I then took my car and had the oil changed and had them look for something- no luck- since then Ive had 3 different mechanic ride with me and listen to the noise as well and they too are baffled.
jackie duckworth Where does the noise sound like it is coming from? Front or rear? Left or right? I suppose by "squilling" do you mean "squealing" - is that right? I have been in the trade for 46 years - one of my strong points is NVH - which is
"noise, vibration & harshness" Noises like you have are never difficult to track down.
If it is a really high pitched squeal and only starts at a certain speed it could be a dry hub seal. But that would only be at the front. That's why I ask - left or right, front or rear. Cannot possibly be all that difficult to sort out.
graeme leigh lol at my misspell. I've still got the squeal and it's been over a month now and no one can find where its coming from but it does seem to be coming from the front passenger side. I'll ask my machanic if he checked for a dry hub seal
graeme leigh sorry - my daughter was logged into youtube when I 1st replied so I had to log her out and sign in as me... I wish I could record the noise while Im driving but its not real loud - I 'm going to give it a try today
jackie duckworth Drive shaft components need to be checked, especially the bearing and the rubber boot and bracket that holds the drive shaft up and attached to the car. It's a pressed part and most major auto shops won't touch it because of 2 reasons. It's a GM dealer only part and can not be obtained by shops in a lot of the areas also, most of those shops including Midas, Sears Auto, ext. do not have the presses that are big enough to do the job on a shaft. It took me half a dozen failed mechanic visits and a lot of time under the car to figure this out. Make sure the entire drive shaft gets a very thorough inspection, driving the car was not the way to diagnose this part in my experience. Good luck, and report back please.
You are a great mechanic. Keep the informative vids coming!
Great helpful video. I have a rattling when going over bumps, and will try these analysis suggestions.
I hate those plastic covers for engine. It takes good amount of time to remove those covers and work on the engine.
+Kamran Khan
I removed those out of my 04 TL and threw them in the trash bin (except for the one that goes on top of the intake plenum). Those plastic don't do much; not much sealing against dust, and making it difficult to check all fluid levels.
+Kamran Khan Never spent more than a minute or two too remove an engine cover.
+DaTwistedOne1 Depends on what car you have and depends if you are using power tools.
worked on all different make,models, and years. rarely use anything other then a ratchet or screw driver to remove them.

Eric. I can still hear that noise mate. If seems like the sway bar links bushings are bad.
This is the first video of yours that I watched.. it was very helpful. Thank you.
"I'm kinda scarred from it, actually". Classic Eric and worth watching the video!!! So many great points in this video! Well done!!!
If you go to your mechanic, and he's hammering your tyre, try not laugh your ass off xD
"That Detroit lean" hahahaha
i fixed my car a year ago thanks to this video now i bought another & again has answered my question! Thnx homie!
Excellent video. Concise & to the point. Not too wordy. One of your best.
"I'm just gonna try something here, as I pull out, and that's getting on it hard."
Is that right Eric??
At 3:21.... I'm just going to try something real quick.... *does a burnout and line locks the car down the street lol... Oh while I'm at it, let's try drifting a few corners to see if that noise is more evident haha.... I'm sure this is what my mechanic does when I drop off my car lol
RexyFan he didn't even do any of that.... where did he burn out or drift? lmao you tweaking
lol yeah I'm not seeing this burnout or drifting either. I would hope a mechanic test driving my car would drive exactly like he did. Sometimes that's when you notice a problem starting - when you're driving aggressively.
Plus any car should be able to handle wide open throttle - if you feel as though you are babying a car to protect some component then it's probably time to get it fixed.
Thanks man, that was great! Simple, easy to understand, no BS. I loved it and you can always learn new things from other peoples experiences. Awesome!!
Thank you for so much so much details Eric. Will be very lucky to be your customers. All the best
Serpentine belt is lookin' a bit shabby too.
I saw the problem at 5:28. The engine was moving on that side.
Really great information. I do have same kind of clunk noise but back on my Opel Corsa. Will follow your checkpoints.
Keep up the great work!👍👍
Eric you are one of the best you tubers mechanic that explain everything 100% I really listen how you explain it and it’s can’t be better than that thumps up eric.
