Why does my car make a noise when accelerating?
A loud squeaking or squealing noise while accelerating could mean there’s a problem with your engine belt. It could mean the belt’s loose or worn. Or it could mean that one of the belt’s pulleys is starting to fail. A loud rumbling noise when accelerating might suggest there’s a problem with your exhaust system.
What causes acceleration noise?
An engine has a lot of moving parts, and a car making loud noise when accelerating could indicate engine problems. For instance, worn valves can make a clicking noise that’s more noticeable the faster a vehicle moves. Bearings, which let the cam and crankshaft spin, can also be noisy when they start to fail.
Is it normal to make noise when accelerating?
There are noises that are normal on acceleration. The best way to know if the noise is normal is simply if you have heard the noise before. You have probably driven, or at least ridden in cars for years.

Why does my differential make noise while decelerating?
Sometimes, the noise is not differential-related, but is caused by other driveline or axle components. This guide will help you match up the noise you’re hearing with the differential or axle component making it, or at least get you in the ballpark. Noise: Howl while decelerating (gears previously quiet) Cause: Loose pinion bearingpreload
Why does my car’s front end make a rattling noise?
If the rattling noise is consistent during this test, it could be from a bad strut. With gloves and without pinching your hands, feel the coil spring or the strut itself and feel for the rattling noise vibrating if you can’t hear it.
