What causes abnormal noise from car tires?
2 Answers
Tire abnormal noise can be caused by the following reasons: 1. Suspension ball joint: Loose lower suspension arm ball joint with excessive clearance can produce noise when the car bumps. 2. Aging plastic components: Loose stabilizer bar bushings with excessive clearance will also generate abnormal noise. 3. Damaged shock absorber: A faulty shock absorber can cause noise when driving on uneven roads. Although shock absorbers have a relatively long service life, they are still a wearable component. If the vehicle operates in harsh conditions or is frequently driven aggressively, damage or oil leakage may occur. Additional information: If the buffer rubber has aged, simply replace the rubber. If the shock absorber is damaged or leaking, the entire shock absorber needs to be replaced.
Having driven for over a decade, tire noise is really not uncommon. Most of the time, it's caused by small stones or nails stuck in the tread pattern, resulting in a clicking sound while driving. If the noise persists, it might be due to uneven tire wear or scratches, which can easily lead to a blowout if ignored for a long time. Once on the highway, I heard a rumbling sound from the wheel, quickly pulled over to the emergency lane, and found a screw had punctured it. I carefully removed it myself. It's recommended that car owners regularly check tire pressure and tread depth, and clean out debris. If the noise continues, it's best to visit a repair shop to check if the wheel bearings are loose or deformed to avoid problems at critical moments. Paying attention to regular maintenance can save a lot of trouble.
