SQUEAK AND RATTLE TROUBLE DIAGNOSES
Revision: 2004 November 2004 FX35/FX45
TRUNK
Trunk noises are often caused by a loose jack or loose items put into the trunk by the owner.
In addition look for:
1. Trunk lid dumpers out of adjustment
2. Trunk lid striker out of adjustment
3. The trunk lid torsion bars knocking together
4. A loose license plate or bracket
Most of these incidents can be repaired by adjusting, securing or insulating the item(s) or component(s) caus-
ing the noise.
SUNROOF/HEADLINING
Noises in the sunroof/headlining area can often be traced to one of the following:
1. Sunroof lid, rail, linkage or seals making a rattle or light knocking noise
2. Sunvisor shaft shaking in the holder
3. Front or rear windshield touching headlining and squeaking
Again, pressing on the components to stop the noise while duplicating the conditions can isolate most of these
incidents. Repairs usually consist of insulating with felt cloth tape.
SEATS
When isolating seat noise it's important to note the position the seat is in and the load placed on the seat when
the noise is present. These conditions should be duplicated when verifying and isolating the cause of the
noise.
Cause of seat noise include:
1. Headrest rods and holder
2. A squeak between the seat pad cushion and frame
3. The rear seatback lock and bracket
These noises can be isolated by moving or pressing on the suspected components while duplicating the con-
ditions under which the noise occurs. Most of these incidents can be repaired by repositioning the component
or applying urethane tape to the contact area.
UNDERHOOD
Some interior noise may be caused by components under the hood or on the engine wall. The noise is then
transmitted into the passenger compartment.
Causes of transmitted underhood noise include:
1. Any component mounted to the engine wall
2. Components that pass through the engine wall
3. Engine wall mounts and connectors
4. Loose radiator mounting pins
5. Hood bumpers out of adjustment
6. Hood striker out of adjustment
These noises can be difficult to isolate since they cannot be reached from the interior of the vehicle. The best
method is to secure, move or insulate one component at a time and test drive the vehicle. Also, engine RPM
or load can be changed to isolate the noise. Repairs can usually be made by moving, adjusting, securing, or
insulating the component causing the noise.

TOTAL PRELOAD INSPECTION
1. Turn companion flange in both directions 20 times or more to set
bearing rollers, then check total preload with special service tool.
If the preload value is out of standard, adjust by changing side
bearing adjusting shim thickness (side retainer side).
–If preload value too large, increase the side bearing adjusting
shim thickness.
–If preload value too small, decrease the side bearing adjusting shim thickness.
DRIVE PINION PRELOAD ADJUSTMENT
Removal of differential case assembly
1. Unfasten the retainer tab using a flat blade screwdriver.
2. Remove the retainer by pulling it and tapping carrier case using a plastic hammer.
3. Remove the differential case assembly from the carrier case.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage the carrier cover mating surface.
Removal of drive pinon assembly
1. Hold the companion flange using cam sprocket wrench or flange
wrench, remove the drive pinion lock nut.
2. Remove the companion flange using puller.
3. Temporarily install drive pinion lock nut.
CAUTION:
Avoid damaging drive pinion threads, install the drive pinion lock nut unit it flash with drive pinion
end.
4. Remove the drive pinion from the carrier case using a copper hammer.
Preload Adjustment
1. Install drive pinion adjusting washer and drive pinion bearing adjusting washer onto the drive pinion, then
install drive pinion into the carrier case.
CAUTION:
Install the removed pinion height adjusting washer and drive pinion bearing adjusting washer or
same thickness washers to drive pinion.
2. Apply gear oil to the bearing portion.
3. Install drive pinion and drive pinion bearing into the carrier case.
4. Install the companion flange without installing oil seal.
5. Apply oil to drive pinion nut threads and seating surface, then temporarily install it.
6. Turn companion flange several times to seat the bearing.
7. Tighten the drive pinion nut while measuring preload using preload gauge.
8. Select drive pinion adjusting washer and drive pinion bearing adjusting washer so that standard preload is
obtain when the drive pinion nut is tightened to specified torque.Tool number : ST3127S000 (see J25765-A)
Total preload (without oil seal)
: 1.56 - 2.65 N·m
(0.16 - 0.27 kg-m, 14 - 23 in-lb)

TRUNK
Trunk noises are often caused by a loose jack or loose items put into the trunk by the owner.
In addition look for:
1. Trunk lid dumpers out of adjustment
2. Trunk lid striker out of adjustment
3. The trunk lid torsion bars knocking together
4. A loose license plate or bracket
Most of these incidents can be repaired by adjusting, securing or insulating the item(s) or component(s) caus-
ing the noise.
SUNROOF/HEADLINING
Noises in the sunroof/headlining area can often be traced to one of the following:
1. Sunroof lid, rail, linkage or seals making a rattle or light knocking noise
2. Sunvisor shaft shaking in the holder
3. Front or rear windshield touching headlining and squeaking
Again, pressing on the components to stop the noise while duplicating the conditions can isolate most of these
incidents. Repairs usually consist of insulating with felt cloth tape.
SEATS
When isolating seat noise it's important to note the position the seat is in and the load placed on the seat when
the noise is present. These conditions should be duplicated when verifying and isolating the cause of the
noise.
Cause of seat noise include:
1. Headrest rods and holder
2. A squeak between the seat pad cushion and frame
3. The rear seatback lock and bracket
These noises can be isolated by moving or pressing on the suspected components while duplicating the con-
ditions under which the noise occurs. Most of these incidents can be repaired by repositioning the component
or applying urethane tape to the contact area.
UNDERHOOD
Some interior noise may be caused by components under the hood or on the engine wall. The noise is then
transmitted into the passenger compartment.
Causes of transmitted underhood noise include:
1. Any component mounted to the engine wall
2. Components that pass through the engine wall
3. Engine wall mounts and connectors
4. Loose radiator mounting pins
5. Hood bumpers out of adjustment
6. Hood striker out of adjustment
These noises can be difficult to isolate since they cannot be reached from the interior of the vehicle. The best
method is to secure, move or insulate one component at a time and test drive the vehicle. Also, engine RPM
or load can be changed to isolate the noise. Repairs can usually be made by moving, adjusting, securing, or
insulating the component causing the noise.
