That KNOCKING sound...
Ok so I have a 2010 Nissan Pathfinder that, before it was mine, it was unfortunately my husband's (originally, it was my husband's mother's, she babied it and took it to the dealer for any and everything religiously before giving it to the niece) 18 year old nieces, whom had a horrible led foot, and never, not once, even opened the hood. And when she got it, it had around 100,000 miles on it, when I got it after it was taken back from her for being an idiot child, it now has 209,589. She still runs strong indeed but she's got some issues and I'd be lying if I said that I wasn't afraid deep down that it was just gonna blow up one day.... Ok so anyways, I've googled and googled and googled some more but I haven't found anything that sounds like what I'm hearing. It comes from the front end under the driver side area and it only sounds when I'm CRUISING between 6mph-18mph, never any faster and the noise stops immediately when I step on the brakes or the gas pedal, and only when I'm cruising. And the noise is a KNOCKING sound, KNOCKING, not whirring, banging, clinking, clunking, screeching, scraping, whining, hissing, JUST STRAIGHT UP KNOCKING, like on a door.... I had a friend(legit mechanic) look at it and he said it sounded like an engine misfire, and I've looked at multiple videos of my same make model year of what an engine misfire sounds like and it don't sound like my knocking noise.. I have a video of the sound, nota great one but you can clearly hear the sound if your clueless as to what it could be ask for the video and I'll send it to you. please PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME!!!! Thank you!!
