Hi, Don, 97 CAVALIER, LESS THAN 10K.
When I push the gas petal, I can hear noise sounds come from the right back side. At the beginning, I thought it is because of the snow, but I clear all of them and now the noise still exist.
Thanks a lot.

chech exhaust pipe and muffler first.

FOX9

Thanks Don first, but HOW?
put my hand one the pipe mouth?

DonCherry

ask a friend standby and you press the gas pedal,
or reverse the role, pay attention to the noise and smoke if it has.

Don, when the speed is lower than 20km/h, i don't remember there is noisy. around 30-50km/h, the noisy is bigger. Do you think it is probably the suspension or bearing?

DonCherry

Sorry, I misunderstant it. I previously think you get the noise when car is parked. Maybe because you didn't tell me the speed at orignal post.

This could be bearing if the sound is continously after certain speed.
This also could be shocks if you hear it after a pot hole on the street.

Do some test on above cases.

Thanks Don, I think you are right. I am going to check this week.

By the way, may I ask which suv is better for 2003 Jeep Liberty Limited Edition$30,000, Suzuki XL-7 JX Automatic $28,195  , Mitsubishi Montero Sport ES A4WD $32,497.
Thanks again.

For these kind of recreation car. You should spend lot of time on research and be patient. You could go to the internet seaching the fan club and join thier bbs and discuss. I think after sometime, you will have target and could be your "must buy". If possible, go to dealer to have a test drive in order to get first hand experience.

It will be not much valide point on reliability. They are all relatively reliable because not heavily used and bigger.

For these small SUV you mentioned, I would go for Jeep Liberty, which is more popular and easier to find a taker one day you decide to sell it.

Thanks Don, I got it.
Have a nice day!
