If it is a front wheel drive vehicle it could be a bad CV joint. In a rear wheel drive car it could be a bad universal joint.
The popping noise can be caused by a bad year in the rear end. The popping noise can also because by a bad you joint.
One cause of a popping noise from the front end while backing up in cold weather is the drive shaft. A mechanic can help find the problem.
Bad ignition coil
possibly off time.
I would like to know. I have had a popping noise in my throat for about a year now. My doctor says it's harmless and normal since there is cartilage and bone moving in that area of the throat.

I have a 1997 GMC 1500 4 Wheel Drive. When engaging 4 wheel drive there is a popping noise (different than and in addition to the normal sound of it engaging) and it does not always engage. Then it will even have a popping noise once engaged. Any ideas? Thank you for your input. Stan
When lighting strikes it causes a cavity or vacuum in the air the loud noise is caused by the vacuum collapsing. as an example popping a plastic bag cause the same effect.
