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
could be a tie rod
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.
If it is a front wheel drive sometimes a bad cv joint can cause a popping sound when you are turning.
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.
Probably a faulty sensor or connection.
drive shaft could be out of balance or tires could be out of round
check the U-joints in the drive line
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.
you probably didnt have it engaged properly. that's happened to me on my friends bronco.
yes
It means the transmission (or it could be applied to the transfer case, as well) is in a neutral position, not engaged in any drive gear.
