Camry :: 2010 XLE - Cyclical Noise From The Rear Right
Jun 9, 2012
My wife's car is a 2010 Camry XLE, 4 cyl/AT,which we bought new and like very much. It gets stellar fuel economy at highway speeds (35 MPG is not unusual if terrain is flat).
It has 52K miles (all the kids live at least 400 miles away...) and I've been bugged by a "whump whump whump" noise from the right rear for about 5K miles. I thought it was an alignment/tire issue (tires have 25K miles, OEM crap tires wore out w/ 26K miles). So.... I had it aligned, though it wasn't terribly out of spec. I had the tires rotated (to see if the noise would move to a different corner of the car to id or eliminate a tire problem) and I'm still getting a cyclical noise from the rear right.
At low speeds it's very noticeable and gets lost in the road noise at higher speeds.
I had an identical problem with a Maxima several years ago and hub/bearing assembly fixed it. Is there something I'm missing? Or, is the consensus a wheel bearing/hub assembly.

I have a new 2010 Prius so am getting used to a different driving experience. One thing I have noticed is that between 55-65 miles per hour I hear a cyclical engine noise every one to two seconds. It is a hum followed by another hum. The noise is not constant but has a one or two second delay between hums. But this cycle is constant between these two speeds. Is this a normal engine sound? If so, why do I notice it only between about 55-65 miles per hour? A technician at a Toyota dealership told me that the 2010 Prius has 26 onboard computers to detect any problems. He said that if there was an issue a red triangle would appear on the display to alert me to any type of problem. I am about to make a 3,000 mile round trip in the Prius and need to know if this cyclical engine noise is cause for concern or just a normal part of the electric/gas engines operation.

I have noticed a very mild cyclical humming noise at exactly 70 mph. Initially I thought it was the original Bridgestones but it continued after I had a new set of Michelin PSS mounted. The noise can only be heard if the car is on a smooth road and the radio and AC are off. I was wondering if it may be a wheel bearing or issue with the differential. Not sure. Its not a big deal but would like to get to the bottom of it if possible.

Coming home from vacation, I noticed a cyclical vibration in my '96 Volvo 960. The cycle shortens with increased speed, and specifically at 85 mph it would swell to a peak and then smooth out to disappear over ten seconds. It's not real noticeable, steering wheel slightly shakes and you can feel it in your feet. At 80 mph it was about a 15 second cycle.

I have a 2011 stock GTI with DSG. 7,000 miles. I just noticed the car has a resonance / vibration / cyclical pulsing / cyclical drone at EXACTLY 65MPH and again at 75MPH. It feels like the pavement has rumble strips every 100 feet or so. I feel it in the floorpan and slightly thru the pedals. You can also hear it- mid-pitched- like a higher male voice tone. It pulses about every second or slightly less for about a half second. It is slightly faster at 75MPH than 65 MPH.
There is NO shimmy in the steering wheel. It is rock solid stable.
I can't place if it is coming from the front, rear, left or right.
Happens in every gear- regardless of RPM.
Happens the same turning left vs. right.
Happens with and without AC on.
Happens with and without the brakes on and/or parking brake on.
I rotated tires front to back with no difference.
Of course, I spend most of my driving time at these speeds and it is making me CRAZY.
BAD WHEEL BEARING??

We've got a 2011 Santa Fe V6 that's putting out a low pitch cyclical whine at speeds between 5 and 15 mph. It could be making the sound at higher speeds but if it is the engine/wind noise drown it out.
If you're coasting or braking and drop below 5-7 mph, the noise cuts out completely and abruptly. Makes noise regardless of A/C running or off. Sounds like a motor turning on and off. Never makes noise while parked and revved, only while moving at low speeds (stop and go traffic, driving through parking lots, etc) - and is just loud enough to drive us crazy wondering what it is!
Dealer service center checked it out for 3 days - 4 different techs drove it, all heard the noise, but none knew where it was coming from. When you're driving, it seems to be coming from the passenger side of the engine.
On a side note, we first started hearing this noise after we got it back from dealer service, where they replaced the TPS and A/C compressor. I'm wondering if it could be from something they had to move to access the compressor?

Happens most of the time I drive the car, and it has been doing it since I bought the car in 2012. Comes from the rear window area, no sunroof.

I had my 2010 Camry up on a hoist yesterday and noticed that there is sort of a small deflector type plastic piece with about a 1 inch lip on the underbody just before the rear wheels. It is held on by two bolts. You can just barely see it and might have to bend down to get a good look at it. It is on both sides. I'm not talking about the rear mud/splash guards but the small piece before the rear tires.
What this is called and what it's purpose is?

I got the UR rear sway bar for my 2010 camry LE today, but it only has the bushing but doesn't include the bracket that secures the bushing? Is that OK can I reuse the OEM bracket? or did they not send me everything?

I have an issue with what sounds like the rear deck rattling in my 2010 SE Camry. I can hear it almost every time my back wheels hit any small bump in the road.
I also have subwoofers installed along with dynamat in most of the trunk (just not on the rear deck). This is my main reason for wanting this solved. The rattle is very noticeable when the bass hits in almost every song. Is that where the rattle is coming from?

I have a 6-cyl, 2000 Camry that is making a scraping noise from the right rear brake. After driving it for a while I put my hand near the rotor and it was hot. The other side wasn't. I changed the pads and rotors yesterday and it's still making the noise. I'm guessing that there's something wrong with the caliper. Do I need to buy a new one? Can I rebuild the current one?

This is going to sound odd but here is the case: When accelerating in car from 0 mph to about 10-15 mph there is a noise coming from the rear. It sounds as if it is coming from the axial or something because it does it once every revolution. But the wierd thing is is that it does it louder when it rains or any moisture is in the air!
We had back right bearing replaced. But still makes noise. Don't think it is rock or tire because it only does it sometimes when speeding up. And does it very loud when raining or humid

I have 2007 Camry LE with about 88K miles on it. I get the growling noise from the read right wheel, particularly when turning right. I can very clearly hear it inside. Interestingly, this happens only first couple of times after I pull it off from parking.
I recently had the brakes and rotors replaced but the noise did not start coming until a couple of weeks later. I suspected it must have something to do with tires so I got them rotated. But that didn't stop the noise.
Initially, when I first heard the noise about 2 months back, it was very seldom but now it's almost everyday. When I got the tires rotated, I was told that I needed the rear wheels aligned. (But if it's due to alignment issue, shouldn't be coming from both wheels?)

I just upgraded from my old 92 camry with 350k to a 04 camry SE.
When I bought it it had a noise in the right rear suspension of the car. I just assumed this would be something minor so I bought it anyway. Shortly after I had the car I noticed there's a clunk in the steering and it turns out my intermediate steering shaft is shot. Turns out this is a common problem.
Its mostly one one side (passenger). Its more of a thumping sound then a rattle and happens on just about every bump or hole in the road. I've replaced the swaybar bushings, the links are fine. Just to be absolutely sure I disconnected the links and drove the car with no sway bar and it had no effect on the noise.
I've replaced the strut mount, and while I had it out I checked the shock. Shock is fine. No leaks, dead spots or any play in the shaft. I've taken everything out of the car, spare tire, jack everything in the truck to eliminate any of that stuff bouncing around. All the control arm bushings seem tight, but I haven't spent much time checking this, need to give the bushings another look.
Are these something that commonly goes? I've checked all the exhaust hangers, rocked the exhaust back and forth, doesnt seem to be hitting anything.

I have a 2007 Camry I4 AT. I searched and most mention noise coming from brake, etc. I don't see noise being mentioned when car is parked.
With my Camry in P, if I push the car a little bit, even just getting in or out of the car, I can hear a metal grinding noise coming from the rear of my car. The brakes looks okay. If I engage the foot brake, the noise reduces but does not go away. The noise seems to come from the bottom rear.

My rear brake makes a whining noise when I go on reverse. I know is brake related because while on reverse, if I barely touch the brake pedal the noise goes away. But without touching the brake pedal whines and sometimes loud and is embarrassing.

I had a new trailer hitch installed on my 2013 Hyundai Elantra Coupe last month...after a couple of days I noticed a vibration noise in the right rear...I took it in to the dealer, they said they hitch didn't fit right and the vibration was caused by the hitch...they recommended I take it back to the installer (e-trailer). So I took it back to e-trailer...they looked at it and said they work with the dealers to design the specs for the hitches and there shouldn't be an issue...so they say they found a piece of styrofoam that was loose in the fascia and that was causing the vibration...so tomorrow I'm going back to the dealer to have them see if they see the same problem...so far I'm getting the old 'it's not my problem'...I really don't care whose problem it is, I just want it fixed!
