I have a clicking noise in the right rear of my 2005 Mercury Grand Marquis. It sounds like it clicks in time with the tire rotation

Would the abs speed sensor make a clicking noise

    Could be either that your parking brake is hanging up, or that the dust shield could be "tweaked"

    I'm having a popping noise from the driver rear wheel. I noticed gear oil coming out and spraying all over the tire.so I replaced that. I also replaced the caliper. My ABS light and brake light is on.. Also, my light with a little car with swervie lines is on. Anyone know why this is?

Sounds like a nail or a stone caught in the tire tread. If it is a stone and you can find it, pry it out with a screw driver. If it is a nail or screw, the tire may need repaired. If you take the nail out the tire may go flat.
The ABS sensor is stationary and reads slots in the brake drum or rotor(with disc breaks). There would have to be something bent for the drum or rotor to only touch one time per revolution of the wheel, and that is not likely. You could have a wheel bearing going bad or it is a possible problem with the braking system. If you have hub caps, they can make a clicking sound that follows the wheel rotation. Can you get the wheel off the ground and spin it to see if the sound continues?

I think you have disc brakes on the rear. If you do, I would check for a warped rotor. When the clicking noise follows the rotation of the wheel and appears only one time per revolution, something is out of round or warped. If the rotor is dragging on the brake pads one time per revolution, it could cause the noise you hear.

    There is no nail or stone in the tire.

    I removed the hub caps a long time ago. Spun the wheels with the tires off the Ground. They turned smoothly and quietly. When I read the comment about the parking brake, I set the brake started the car and was surprised that the brake did not release automatically in reverse. I moved the car slightly and then released the brake. the noise was gone for a while and now comes back faintly for short periods of time.

Have a chirping sound on drivers side of car while driving, sounds like its coming from either front or rear tire area. its a 2000 mercury grand marquis.

front or rear? thats a big area to narrow it down to. I would suspect the universal joints to "chirp" it may make more noise backwards or forwards.

I have a 1999 Mercury Grand Marquis. i noticed a little diff fluid coming from the right rear wheel. I changed the wheel seal and axle bearing and put it all back together and filled the rear diff with...

first swap to a front tyre to eliminate that issue


new bearing shouldn't be rumbling
to get the bearing square on and home
did you use a press to fit the bearing to the rear axle
or tube method ?

and did the seal kit have this nifty plastic seal fitter so axle didn;t rip the seal surface
