2004 X front end noise
Got a new 2004 Columbia Edition Wrangler. My first Jeep.
I hear a what sounds like a binding sound when taking off, sounds like the
drive shaft and only last for a second or two. I thought I read this front
end noise is normal some where but not sure. Does anybody know. I checked
everything up there and it all looks and feels tight. Just wondering before
I take it in to have it looked at.
Thanks,
Tim

Re: 2004 X front end noise
Shouldn't be any noise coming from the front end if you are in 2-WD. If you
are in 4-hi or 4-lo on dry pavement, the drivetrain will bind up and you may
hear noise and cause damage. Be sure to only use 4-hi or 4-lo on slippery
surfaces, like snow, ice, dirt, mud, etc.

Re: 2004 X front end noise
Hard to tell by your description, but should not any "binding sound". I
assume it's not in four wheel drive.

Let us know what you find out as I just bought an '04 columbia that
clunks when you accel mildly from a stop. Mine sounds more like a
u-joint than binding, so it may or may not be related. Haven't made it
back to the dealer yet.
