#38 of 41 2002 Ford Expedition Rattling Noise by wera_132004

I have a 2002 Ford Expedition and besides the leaking in the rear end of the truck, I keep hearing a rattling sound on the bottom of the truck. Could it have been caused because I accidentally ran the truck like 5 Miles on 4 WD? Can that rattling noise be related to the leaking of the rear end side of the truck? Is it seriously bad or expensive? Please give me some advice, I'm a single mother of 3 boys and I don't have any kind of help, I would hate to loose my only vehicle

How about the rear differential? That's where I would start. On flat ground when you open the fill port the fluid level should be right at the bottom of the hole. Could also be the axle seals.

The rattling is probably just a loose heat shield on the exhaust. Unlikley that is has anything to do with driving it in 4WD.

I have some leaking in the rear as well. Just got my truck yesterday. Is there any other problem anyone else having regarding their truck.
