"Popping" noise when coming on or off the accelerator
Hi, I know noises are very difficult to describe or diagnose but here goes:
I have a sort of popping sound when I use or release the accelerator. it *seems* to happen much more when the engine is warmed up than it does direct from a cold start. The popping or mild clunk as it could also be described happens within about half a second of the pedal being touched or released. I don't think it happens when starting from stationary rather when easing off the pedal and then back on again. It almost like there is some "slack" in the transmission, maybe a worn joint somewhere or something. Anyone got any ideas? Many years ago I had a Ford Explorer and I seem to recall it might have done the same thing but much less often or perhaps I didn't pay as much attention to it back then. These 2 cars are my only experience of AWD, large SUV type cars and automatic transmissions so for all I know it might be normal..... Thanks. |
