The Nissan Path

Got stuck in some deep mud for a hour or two waiting for help to arrive. now when I drive theres a whinning niise feom underneath. its nt coming from the motor. The motor runs great, and clutch feels fine, but when I rev it up or drive theres that noise. Any help would be appreciated thanks [/img]

did you give it a good clean after the mud? maybe some mud is stuck in the wheels or the drive shaft?

Yea I sat there with a power washer and sprayed that thing dowb but I couldnt get to all the nooks and crannies under there. The motors nice and quiet. Its when I start giving it gas then it starts making the whinning noise

Could it be something in the tranny

Also the truck is alot slower to get up to speed now and its a 5 speed if that helps

As a suggestion to see if it is only one wheel or the trans -- try jacking it up and with the wheels in the air (should be firmly supported) see if you with the help of a friend can locate the source.

With no drag on the wheels the noise source should be easier to locate -- I can't recommend it but I have even set one wheel on the ground to make the other one spin so I can see if a noise is in the brakes or bearings.

Ill have to try that the truck is fine now with the performance. Theres just that noise ill have to narrow it down thanks for the help

I had a whining noise under revs. Is yours only when moving, or when you just rev the engine at a stop?

Mine was at a stop, and it's just the power steering pump. I just need to replace it one of these days.
