I have an annoying*Vibrating sound? when I hop out of my wagon, I hear a vibrating sound, if I put weight on my rock sliders it stops, if I climb back into my car it stops, if I climb under it and put pressure or pull on nearly ever component it stops, If I pull on the spring it stops, if I put pressure on my rear bumper it stops!!!!
Can some one guide me into what to look for PLEASE, as its doing me head in
Is it with the engine running? Sounds like harmonics try adjusting the idle up a tad
Um shocker bleeding off air internally??? Whats a sping? how long does it vibrate for if you don't do anything?
Meant to say spring.Quote:

sounds like that old Blonde joke
she goes to a Drs and says "I hurt every where..............."
"if I touch my ear,,,,,,,,,,,,,, it hurts
if I touch my Nose.................it hurts
if I touch my elbow...... it hurts
if I touch my Knee........... yep, it hurts also
what can it be Dr.........?"
Doctor says "you have a broken finger, thats why it hurts everywhere you touch................................"
now, for something more constructive
can you tape the noise on your Phone, and post it up...........
someone may have a better idea of what it may be........
Donk Balance like K63 suggests!?Maybe a dodgy body mount too, steel on steel somewhere?Quote:

Yeah I would be checking your body mounts first, then I'd look at engine and gearbox mounts.
Check the exhaust mount just after the cat. I bet you its that.
@SKID what area are you in , Melb west I think
If so bring it around as two heads are better than one
Wish I could, but Live in Brisbane QLD :(Quote:

My tread plates[side steps] are loose I ended up packing them up with pieces of small cable ties
No checkerplate on rock sliders... when it made the noise today, if I touched the accelerator pedal ever so slightly to bring the revs uo from 750 to 800ish the sound goes away... Any ideas?
G'day SKID, have you tried everything else suggested above, especially Kimbo's idea? Definately no mounts rubbing steel on steel again? Not sure what Donk you've got but is 750 too low anyway? Cheers :-) !Quote:

So all new mounts all over are good, have checked? NissanNewby would know the correct idle for a silver turbo but the poor buggers super busy :-)
mine is a silvertop td42 in a gq and it seems to make the same sort of noises. did find the clutch shield loose as in it was cracking off. but it still makes the noise. my body mounts are still original... i've given up chasing the noise for now but if you find it i'll consider fixing it...lol
What should I adjust it too? its currently on 750RPM
My Max Ellery manual says the TD42 idleQuote:

If thats of any good to you
It may even be the guts of your muffler coming loose.
