It's amazing to see there are still amazing honest mechanics out there. I'm trying to figure out my 2000 cadillac esclade 5.7 v8, 4x4 noise. Doesn't knock in idle, only in dive after 15 mph. Seen 2 mechanic come out an payed them both for looking into it. One said needs a new motor @ $2816😢, other said need new tyranny@ $1700*. I'm a single mom going through colleges. My esclade been parked for almost 6 months now. Ugh. Trying to find an honest mechanic around my parts is tuff.

Depending on how bad a broken flexplate is it can damage other components within the input shaft due to it slapping on the torque converter. So the dude saying it needs a new trans could be being honest with you depending on how long it was drove, or if it has kicked the torque converter and bent the input shaft or knocked the seal or “bearing” or whatever whoever wants to call it.

Hi. I've got a 1998 Nissan Pathfinder, 164,000 miles, 3.3L V6, 5 speed automatic transmission. When it's first started it knocks or rattles for 3 seconds. Then it stops. Once warm it will only do the startup rattle about 50% of the time. Exact same noise returns from about 1,800 to 3,200 RPM and then stops. If I'm going up a hill it won't do it 50% of the time unless I press the gas pedal and cause RPMs to sharply raise. The main bearings and rod bearings were changed. Looked good. No rod or crank shaft slop was noted. Oil/filter is new and full. Same with transmission fluid. I've narrowed it down to 4 things based on its part time occurrence: 1. Flex plate? 2. Timing belt tensioner failing (unknown when last changed)? 3. Torque converter? 4. Hydraulic lifters? I have two short videos I recorded it and can share. Thanks!

I know this video is old but it was the only one to actually help me. I thought my catalytic converter was going out it has been making a ticking noise for awhile but it's expensive to replace so I've been waiting, well last night driving my truck the transmission quit on me. Pulled over and tried everything to get it to go. Decided to try to turn it off and restart the truck maybe the computer would reset. Welp, the truck wouldn't turn over now. Thought it was the transmission at first, but after reading up on the web and running into this video, I decided to check the flexplate which isn't very common to just break, well turns out the exact thing happened on my truck as in this video, the bolts in the center are still connected but the whole plate around it broke, I could turn it by my fingers. So I thought maybe I'd give my two cents and try to help anyone who might have the same issue as well.

I really enjoyed it, but now it just makes engine and exhaust noise and barely responds till it gets into 4k rpm or more, but then the truck shifts at 5.4k. Now it just chugs fuel and embarrasses me and kinda puts me in danger.

I have pulled the inspection plate on an 04' Caravan (3.3L) in an attempt to look for a cracked flexplate. I have spun it all the way around and see no indications of cracks on the backside towards the motor. I am assuming that the flexplate is more likely to crack on the side towards the torque converter? The problem is that I am unable to access that side for inspection. But today I believe that I can pull the starter motor off and get a better peek inside.

+Oz Mechanics Thanks for the response. This vehicle has an extremely loud knock. It sounds like it is going to blow up on the highway until cruising speeds, possibly where the TC locks up. It sometimes has trouble going up to highway speeds which somehow leads me to believe it could be associated with the flexplate.Yesterday it finally sort of "snapped" and sounded like a bag of nails was unleashed in to a tin can. But today it is making the typical knocking sound that it decided to suddenly make 2 days ago. By the way, the knock went away and decided to come back on the same day. Is this some of the symptoms that you encountered with this vehicle?

Handsome and knowledgeable! My brothers car just went out and recently had his engine replaced. Def got it checked out and is the flywheel Honda si 2007 manual trans. Do you think this should be covered under engine warranty?

My mother in law had burnt wires on her car. The mechanic just replace the plastic loom and never replaced the wires. I pulled back the plastic loom and the old burnt wires had not been replace. I talked to the mechanic and told him I would let everyone I came across would be warned not to come to him and I would go to the BBB. He gave back her money $550 dollars.

I tightened mine but still getting this noise. I'm positive it's from the flex plate or torque converter. There is a little wobble or bend in the plate when the truck is running. Not much but notocible. What would cause this? Where do these things crack at? I couldn't see any cracks in the flex plate through my inspection cover. 01 jeep cherokee xj.

Oz Mechanics great discussion, I am looking at a 2007 duramax cube van, with just this going on I think, from the seller :"I’m selling my 2007 cube van,it a really good working truck with good tires.truck needs a little work.its making loud noise and the mechanic said it a connecting rode or the connection barring.im ask 2000 but I’m open for good offer.can sell for parts as well I hear the flexplate on the GM 4L80E can shear like this and make noises, is it possible? Thanks!
