I've been hearing a sort of rumbeling noise coming from the from the front end when accelerating through a corner, like from stop lights and such, could this be the SHAWD causing this. It's the wifes car and i dont drive it much, but i dont think it was there before, and i just put new tires on so i know its not them. Any ideas, anybody?

What is the year of your car? How many miles on the car? There are a few TSBs related to the noise from the front end on the 2nd generation MDXs. Does the noise stop after you reach a certain speed?

 

I have an 08 with 35K on it.

I did check the TSB's, noise didnt seem to match any of those. It only rumbles going around corners, tight corners, you have to have your foot in it more than a normal to hear it. Thougt might be CV joint or somthing, Had it at the dealer they said it was the differental making noise, they chaged the oil, said it was good to go. it wasen't. Seems making right hand turns is louder than left hand one's . Just wondering if anybody else has experienced this.

 

I realize that it has been a while since the last post but have you gotten this issue fixed yet? My car goes in on Wednesday please let me know thank you

 

The dealer told me it was the Motor mounts, they replaced them. Still make thenoise have not brought it back yet, has not gotten any worse. let me know if you find anything out.

Thanks

 

cv joint will make a clicking sound. A rumbling sound is usually a wheel bearing going out. You can put the car up on stands and rock the wheels to verify which bearing/s it is. I think the whole hub has to be replaced, otherwise press out the old ones and get new ones. soon.
