When slowing down (not applying the brakes) and when taking off, I hear a grinding sound from the rear end. It sounds like running your nails down the chalkboard.


What could this be?


Thank You

I know the brake pads are paper thin and they are getting replaced Weds. Oh I hope I didnt **** up my rotors.

Wheel hub bearing? Slide into anything sideways lately or in the past? Or the ball bearings just went bad outta nowhere.

[robpp]

how are the rear brake pads elvis

I did drifting back during the last snow storm.

Thinner than a anorexic Supermodel.

LMAO.,., I seriously laughed at this Joe!!!


Does it sound like one side or the other? Try having someone outside the Jeep and see if they hear it.

LOL.


It sounds like it is coming from the rear passenger side.

[Scottina06]

probably the rear pads are gone.....lead foot

[mjl2610]

In my olds i used to do some wicked drifts in the winter and i always wrecked the wheel hub bearings, I knew it cause of the grinding from the wheel that id hit. Always having to get new ones sliding sideways into rogue curbs or shit like that. Lol. So im going to say hub bearings but thats just a guess.

[scjeep4.7HO]

bearings would always make some noise and so I would suspect the brakes.

[Scottina06]

and dont the bearings make a squeaky/grinding noise?

[scjeep4.7HO]

Usually depends on the severity and the speed.

[blackpepper]

Ruh-roo... sounds like a hub/axle bearing but I'm over here in Cali so it could be anything. Does it happen intermittently or can you make the sound on command?

[Robert Palmer]

It was intermittent but now its consistent.

[blackpepper]

Hmmm I don't know bro. Baby that ****er you need to keep it until your lease is up.

Sounds ghetto only b/c I don't know much but squirt some WD-40 in there and see if it goes away.

[scjeep4.7HO]

Check your diff oil.

[Robert Palmer]

Hmmmmm. Will do tomorrow.

[mjl2610]

Question about the brake pads... why would low/crappy pads cause a constant grinding and or rubbing noise if that was the case. I mean hes not going to be able to stop as good and they might grind when he is stopping but hes not getting that when hes stopping.

[scjeep4.7HO]

Most good brake pads have a little metal tab that will touch when they get too low to say "hey change me".....

[Scottina06]

LOL....I read the entire first post and he says jsut slowing down...not applying brakes. sorry

---------- Post added at 09:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:32 PM ----------

but the pad could have broken and is now flopping around in the caliper causing the noise....and thats the best case scenario---LOL

[Nand12]

lol I'm really wasted rite now but expanding on the reply that I made on "that other forum", I think it's either parking brake/rear brake related or something in your drivelien (specifically transfer case). Usually, wheel bearing failure is accompanied by a loud roaring noise that is proportional to speed. Do you have any loud whining noise at highway speed??

[Robert Palmer]

When I did that 0-60 video today, I didnt hear it past 20 mph.

[Nand12]

hmm then I think it's either your transfer case or your brakes like others have suggested. It's cheapest and easiest to check out your brake pads and parking brake, so I would start there. If you need more info on the procedure let me know.

[Robert Palmer]

Holy ****. Not my t-case. But how can that be if I hear it coming from the rear right wheel?


When I was snow drifting a couple months ago, I got the same exact noise and it went away. :confused:

[Nand12]

now we're getting somewhere. If it's the right rear wheel only making the noise, check the brakes on that wheel and with any luck you have found the problem.

[Marlon_JB2]

I can't wait to get rid of my Overland. :D


(Shhhhhhhhh did I say that too loud? I don't want it to hear that.) :lol:

....

I'm currently awaiting for something else to break on your Jeep......

:p

With that said :p I doubt it's the T-Case. Like said before, if the pads need to be replaced that "squeak" would most certainly be the problem. Either way you need to get those done, and if that doesn't solve the issue, bearings or parking brake. I'm sure you know the parking brake is inside the brake rotor.

[mjl2610]

With potential wheel bearing issues the noise is more apparent at certain speeds and not noticeable at others. It all depends on the hub bearings themselves if that is the problem. But i dunno, you will just have to take it somewhere to know for sure.

[Robert Palmer]

Well guys, the noise is gone. :confused:


My Jeep is spooky. I'm scared. :lol:

[mjl2610]

Noise is gone eh? Well that's good. hah

[NHWK05]

Fawk it, its gone in 6 months any way. LOL

[mjl2610]

On one hand whoever gets Joe's jeep has an advantage that half of the car has been replaced already. On the other, it seems to have a lot of problems and Joe is pretty tough with his jeep. heh. :p

Yes I abuse it but I always do extra maintenance.

2500 mile Oil Changes
Spark Plugs replaced twice
Trans, diff, and t-case fluid replaced every 10k



That being said, I still pity the person that gets my Jeep and I hope they don't sign up on a forum I frequent. :lol:

[mjl2610]

If i ever look for a used black overland ill make sure to get your vin to make sure i don't get yours. haha

[Robert Palmer]

LOL. Sure let me know. :lol:

[Megatron]

Lmao, you better cover your tracks joe

[NHWK05]

Yea they might fingerprint your jeep and search your computer.

[FunWK]

I have got this noise now in my new used 06 GC Limited. It is most apparent while idle, when turning the steering wheel. Right rear is where is sounds like it is coming from. Not sure yet how often the fluids were changed or if they had been. 36700 miles on the Jeep.

Dropping it off at Carmax tonight, 30 day warranty period is almost up but I do have the MaxCare after that.

Did you ever find the problem for sure? It is so easy to replicate so I have no worries about showing them the problem. Just not sure what it is, I am a Jeep newbie.

Your joking right? That is a HUGE waste of money even if you abuse it hardcore. 4k on the oil, and at minimum 30k on the others. Today's oil isn't like it was 10 years ago. Thanks to technology, refinement of oils, creation of synthetics, and standards.

Save yourself some cash...if you have cash to burn through i need the above maintenance done to mine :)


Now for the topic at hand. Two things flag for me. You say the pads are thin - replace them regardless...Only like 50$ and 30min of your time. Caliper could be sticking too. Changes of weather could make it stick then become unstuck.

I wasnt joking.

[Robert Palmer]

And also I dont even have the Overland anymore. :lol:

[ducks unlimited]

its the 5.7 haunting you ! :lol:
