97 nissan altima rumbling noise

Jun 06, 2008 2 Replies

I have a 97 nissan altima with 113000 miles. At slow speeds, a rumbling type rattle can be heard, coming from the rear. It seems that something is loose, but I have inspected all the suspension parts in the rear and can find nothing loose. I do not want to start changing parts without knowing for sure what the problem is. Has anyone else had this problem? Thanks for any help.


Check your tires, make sure they look alright and aren't rubbing agains anything. Also, look in the spare tire well in the trunk, I once had golf ball in mine that made an awful noise from time to time

Make sure the lug nuts are tight. I had this problem, but it was on the front. I assumed it was the CV-joint. It wasn't.
