Ok... on my '96 XJ, 4.0 Auto... I've had a rattle type of noise I can't isolate that sounds like it's coming f/around the drivers side/firewall/tire area... but that could be deceiving.
Let me describe. My XJ starts and drives just perfect... nothing wrong at all... best I can tell. I've also got 244K miles on the odometer. I started noticing this about 2-3 months ago and it's gotten a very slightly worse w/time. I only notice the sound when I'm driving and come to a stop, while sitting at a stop, transmission in D... I hear what sounds like a rattle and sometimes almost sounds like a whistle... then when I let off the brake and start driving the sound goes away.
I thought it may be my transmission making noise but after changing fluids last weekend nothing changed. The old fluid was in good condition and the tranny shifts fine.
Oil pressure is good. It's possible I have an exhaust leak (replaced my busted OE header w/a good one a couple years back and I don't notice any cracks) Have MORE motor mounts.
The hard part is trying to diagnose the cause of the noise. Anyone every have anything similar and figure out what it was? Any suggestions are appreciated.
