My 21 OBX started doing this a couple of months ago. Taking it to the dealer on 10/30. Glad I got an extended warranty, mine has 45000 miles. I have the exact same symptoms, grinding type noise, especially turning right from a stop.
I personally didn't care for the OBX wheels at all. I bought a set of take-off BB 17's and love the look. It has a better ride too. And, as far as the stock tires on each, the Michelin's on the 18's were toast at 17000 miles and were terrible in snow. The Conti's on the 17's resist...
It was me that had the heat shield rubbing the rear drive shaft. I noticed that the drive shaft had a "shiny ring" around it because of the rubbing. I originally thought that I had a rear diff problem. It only made the noise on hard acceleration. I was able to duplicate it a lot when in...
I had a grinding/scraping noise coming from the rear end last summer. I feared the worst, like the rear diff going bad. Mine seemed to only make the grinding/scraping noise when the rear was engaged, like at a quick take off or using Sport mode. After poking around underneath, I found a shiny...
I recently did a couple of things.
In early January, I found a good deal on a set of take-off Big Bend carbonized grey 17" wheels with new tires on them. Never really did like the looks of the Outer Banks wheels, especially with Kodiak Brown. Sold them locally to a silver Base model owner...
Mine is now up to 23000 miles(trouble free). I have had three different noises.
*Tapping type noise from both front doors. Turned out that it was the mirrors. I was able to duplicate it by tapping on the mirror housings. I fixed it by taking apart the mirrors, which wasn't very hard to...
I have had a clicking noise also on my Outer Banks. It has done it, oddly enough, since I rotated my tires. I thought it had something to do with my rear differential, since it was coming from the rear.
I took it in for a diagnostic and the dealer is going to change the infamous shift lock...
Had it diagnosed today. dealer says they will replace the transmission unlock cable first. I dont think that is the problem since I can produce the noise when the "Intelligent 4WD" display shows the rear wheels activated. It sounds like a clicking noise from the rear of vehicle. Sometimes it...
I started getting a grinding noise from the rear of my Outer Banks yesterday. It is a 2021 with 21000 miles I bought new a year ago. Only makes noise during times the rear differential would be activated, such as using Sport Mode, or fast take-offs. Also noticed it coordinates with the...
Hello. I have the same rattle coming from both of my side view mirrors. Seems like the plastic covering is kind of loose. It rattles when I tap on it and rattles when I close the door. Can anyone tell me how to remove the cover from the mirror (without breaking anything)? I think I might be...
When mine were replaced, the dealership didn't put anti squeal grease on the pads. I did it myself after the fact. I would have much rather done the whole job myself, but the pads were "free" from Ford.
Mine is in the drivers door aroud where the mirror is mounted, mostly notice at lower speeds. Noticed the upper cover on the drivers side mirror rattles when you tap on it.
Had mine since 8/30 and now has 4300 miles on the clock. I travel 28 miles each way to/from work, 20 miles of it is highway. I do have a heavy right foot. I average between 24 and 25 MPG. Recently went on a trip to the NC coast which was a 1600ish mile trip and got 26.5 loaded with 3 people...
I have the textured one with the raised section on the middle. I got it because I am a magnet for cracked windshields. I like the look of the smoke one better on the Kodiak. I did notice a big increase in hood movement at highway speeds. The hood had some movement without it, but you had to...
