A girlie Liberty question....................
..............but as I'm a girl it's allowed.
My 6 month old Liberty has develeoped an intermittent noise when turning right (and very very occaisionally left). I can only describe it as a cross between a grinding noise and a whine. I can feel a very slight vibration through the steering wheel as well. Sometimes it happens a lot, then I can go for days with nothing, I can't even figure out what brings it on. Every time I have take in to the dealership it doesn't happen (of course!!!) even if it has been doing it a lot that day. They say until they can hear it they wont be able to tell what it is. Does anybody have any clues? Is this a common Liberty problem?? Angela |
Re: A girlie Liberty question....................
I am not sure if the Libby has a Full Time 4WD mode or not, but if it does
and you use it, then the trouble sounds to be related to this. If it hasn't got, or yours does not have, Full Time 4WD but you have selected 4HI and are driving on the street, then this IS the problem. Your Libby (assuming you only have Part Time 4WD) is not intended to be driven in 4WD on any surface other than SOLID SNOW OR ICE, or dirt and gravel. If there is any sign of asphalt, then do not use 4WD.

If there is any sign of > asphalt, then do not use 4WD. I should have said, I am in the UK and have a 2.8 CRD which has Selec Trac. Most of the time I keep it in 2 wheel drive, but I get the noise in 2 wheel drive or 4 wheel full time. I've never tried it in 4 wheel part time or 4 wheel low as I've never been on the cirrect surface to try. |
