That’s pretty much how it started for me last fall. The front drivers side started getting a little klunky going over bumps then I started hearing an odd noise for a second or two when making a sharp left turn or driving over bumps and dips in the road when the front of the van drops a bit. Then...

Part of the problem is at this point it isn’t loud/consistent enough to say for sure where it is or isn’t coming from. Haven’t completely ruled out a loud pulley but I couldn’t find anything obviously bad or noisy in that area either. Out of curiosity how often did you change the transmission...

Not definitively. It’s been warming up here, once it got into the 50s-60s the noises mostly stopped. I had another mechanic take a look and they said they too hear a bit of what sounds like transmission whine at startup then didn’t really hear anything concerning after that. I am still sometimes...

V6. Would a pulley or water pump/alternator bearing noise change when shifting from park or neutral to drive? Or when letting off the gas and coasting to a stop? The second shop said they were kind of scratching their heads partly because of it only making the noises when cold. Sounded like...

Bought a 2015 Sedona about a year ago, has 70,000 miles on it now. A couple months ago when temperatures here started getting into the 30’s(Fahrenheit) I started noticing groaning noises coming from the front end when coasting at low speeds. Sometimes it seems to get worse on uneven roads or...

A Sedona. I haven’t really read of them having abnormal tire wear issues but it could be a problem for most/all minivans I suppose. The current tires have a date code from 4 years ago and still have a lot of tread, I didn’t notice any unusual wear. Though the previous owner only drove it around...

How are they on rough roads? The roads around here are pretty bad so I don’t want tires that are really firm, but this is my first time choosing tires for a minivan and I’m a bit concerned about the extra weight. Most of the tests/reviews used a crossover or sedan which is what the tires were...

I bought a FWD minivan that the previous owner put Goodyear Comfortreads on. Despite still having 7/32 left traction is pretty bad in the rain and not particularly good on dry roads either. Not a very comfortable ride either, rubber seems hard and possibly has flat spots for the first 5-10 miles...
