Cadillac srx rear end noise

There is a whirling sort of grinding sound coming from the rear end of the car. It's loudest starts at 35-50 mph and again at 60-70 mph. Above 75mph it's almost gone. The curiosity is that when taking a wide curve at 50 mph, the sound all but disappaears. ?? The front & rear diffs have had their fluids changed with the correct oils & additives. And just recently, the traction control TC & ABS warning lights are on as well ?? Coincidence? I checked the bearings - but there wasn't a wiggle (I didn't spin - I should have) Thanks for any help - Gil M.

Sounds like they may have left something disconnected like the ABS/ Traction control wheel sensor, make them fix it!!

SOURCE: abs light/traction control light

You can check out what the trouble code is by pushing and holding the information button and the up arrow (right side of instrument cluster above the radio) until all the instrument clusters light. Press the information button (last) to enter test mode. I've had an error C1234, meaning Left rear wheel sensor fault. I found the problem to be a corroded connector under the chasis just under the rear left door about 2 feet in. I had to by-pass (replace 1 wire due to corrosion at the connector.

2011 CADILLAC SRX WILL NOT START. LIGHTS AND REAR HATCH WILL OPEN SO DOESN'T SEEM TO BE THE BATTERY???

Try jump starting it from another car. or that thing should have a volt gauge while trying to crank it if it drops lower then 11volts it wont start. or if you can hook up a volt gauge to the battery if not just try jump starting it.

My neighbor's 1998 Cavalier is making a strange noise. It has automatic transmission, new tires, and 155,000 miles. When idling at a stop, it sounds fine, but when it starts movig and hits 15 or 20 mph...

Try getting on an open road, get up to about 45 MPH or where ever the noise is loudest. Put the car in neutral and turn the engine off. You can roll in a straight line for a long time. Make sure nodody is around you. If the sound stops when the engine is off, then the noise is coming from the motor. If the sound is still there, its got to be coming from the tires. Id guess a wheel bearing.

I have 2005 Cadillac SRX 86,000 Miles. I hear a grinding noise when I accelerate and feel a bump when driving on hyway, No sound when coasting, stoping or ideling which to me would eliminate engine or...

Grinding on acceleration, rhythmic thump on the highway... might be a bad u-joint in a CV shaft or rear drive shaft. Put the transmission in neutral, put blocks in front of the front wheels jack up the back end of the vehicle and put jackstands under the frame (do not rely on the jack alone to hold it up!). Turn the rear wheels by hand while listening and feeling for slop or roughness. Crawl under the vehicle and check for play in the drive shaft bearings, then rotate the drive shaft by hand to check for rough bearings in the u-joints. Inspect the fender wells and suspension linkage for foreign objects that may be rubbing or bumping on the wheels. Inspect the tires for uneven wear, incipient blowouts (blisters) or other problems.
If you don't find anything in the rear end, lower the vehicle, block the rear wheels, jack up the front, and repeat the check on the front wheels.
Check your transmission fluid as directed in the owner's manual. It should be at the proper level and clean, with no burned odor. If there is a problem with the transmission fluid, the noise could be coming from the transmission.

Grind in Rear End

Jack up each wheel and spin it by hand. When you hear that noise that will be a very worn wheel bearing on that wheel that needs to be replaced

My 2004 Cadillac SRX has intermittent pinging or

The pinging noise that you hear is detonation occuring in one or more of the cylinders. The dealer suggested to move to a higher octane inorder to prevent this because the higher the octane the higher the prevention of Detonation.

The Probable cause of the pinging, would be that you refilled with a bad batch of gasoline. Premium should be used in this vehicle no matter what. Due to the clearances of the heads and valves in the motor. And also due to the material used to make the cylinder heads, if severe detonation occures then the valves could be damaged.
