i have a 99 flex fuel ranger automatic with 76K
we bought it used last year, but i think it sat for a while....
recently we've noticed some type of "grinding"?? noise
the best way for me to describe the sound is...like when you are driving on older, rougher pavement and then you suddenly get to nicely new paved road...but the issue is that i never changed pavement types.
i also do not think it is tire noise because it isn't constant. my boyfriend got under the truck and made sure nothing was loose and the brakes are not catching.
i don't know if it may be a transmission problem. my boyfriend thinks that we are starting to have issues with the transmission....not shifting right, etc
it is driving us nuts....if anyone has any thoughts, that would be great. we'd like to fix it ourselves
