Why can I hear my tire rotating?
This happens when there is uneven tread wear. When you rotate the tires, the part of the tread with more rubber will create friction with the road surface, creating the loud noise. Not enough air in tires. When your tires are underinflated, they make noise.
Why does my car make a thumping noise when I rotate the tires?
Also, the noise is variable depending on the speed AND the duration of noise is also speed dependent (going slow, the thump is drawn out. Going faster, the thump duration is shorter.) Here’s what I have done so far but the noise is still there. Rotated both front tires to rear Inspected the tires while rotating and saw nothing out of ordinary
Is there a ticking noise in the steering wheel?
I can also feel it faintly through the steering wheel. It’s not a ticking or hard knocking noise. Also, the noise is variable depending on the speed AND the duration of noise is also speed dependent (going slow, the thump is drawn out. Going faster, the thump duration is shorter.)
What to do when your car makes a thumping noise?
If the problem goes away when the snow melts, well, problem solved. Or you could take the car to one of those diy car washes, where you put some quarters in then you use a pressurized wand to spray out all the wheel wells. I’d try that first before assuming it is something else.
Why does my car make a clunking sound when I put the brakes on?
Since having my tires changed, I’ve been hearing a clunking sound from what sounds like the back driver side of my car. This noise only comes when the brakes are applies softly, just enough to slow the car down. Breaking hard, driving normally or accelerating doesn’t cause this either.

Why does my car make noise when I turn a corner?
Alignment problems can also produce noise by causing tire scuffing. When the wheels are not aligned during a turn, a tire can shift sideways instead of rolling forward. Normal tire wear, when tire tread depth is very low, can lead to the same noise. Combined with excessive speed, this can cause tire squealing and possibly a loss of traction.
What should I do if my tires are making noise?
Combined with excessive speed, this can cause tire squealing and possibly a loss of traction. To prevent excessive noise, ensure that tires are properly inflated, slow down during turns, and have your suspension checked for damage and proper alignment. Replace tires before they get to 2/32” tread depth.
What does it mean when you hear a wobbling noise in your car?
While driving, you hear a wobbling noise—like an unbalanced washing machine on the high spin cycle. What it could mean: If you hear this sound, pull over right away, and check your wheels and tires. You may have loosened wheel nuts, which could result in the wheel falling off, or low tire pressure, which puts you at risk for a tire blowout.
