SOURCE: 1996 suburban makes grinding noise in 2 wheel drive

sounds like the clip on the rear output shaft its probably broke. do this by removing the rear driveshaft, and the tail of the transfer case, there are 4 bolts holding it in place. then grab the output shaft and see if it has any front to back movement. if so pull it all the way to the rear and you should see a groove at the front part of the shaft where the clip goes. Then you should find the pieces fo the clip in the tail housing. One person said he found the replacement clip at a local tranny shop. I am calling the dealership parts counter for a new clip for my 97 Tahoe tomorrow. Hope this helps..

SOURCE: Stuck CD in the multi CD player of 2004 Chevy Malibu Maxx

The only thing that is left for you to do is to remove the stereo and then disassemble it and remove it yourself. A little daunting but needs to be done. Sounds like it went in wrong and then became jammed

SOURCE: 2005 Malibu Maxx, rear windshield washer problem

look at the check valve/one-way vacuum valve (located behind the rear left paneling). chances are that the valve is broken and leaking. remove the valve from the hose and replace it.

SOURCE: I have a 2005 Chevy Malibu Maxx. It has a TC

i think it stands for traction control. most cars with that say ETC which stands for electronic traction control. if you have a manual for the car it should say what it is.

2005 Malibu maxx making a loud humming noise when I step on the gas. Any one have a clue as to what could cause this

Could be power steering pump bleeding. Could be transmission converter. Need to isolate them to the source. Mileage is the most important part of reasoning.

Jeep in four wheel drive

Shift the transfer case to N while it is making the noise. If the noise goes away the transfer case is the culprit.

We're having a popping sound in the steering in my 2006 malibu maxx hatchback ? Is there a recall . Please help

i just bought a 2005 malibu maxx from a dealership. It was having a popping sound when i would turn the wheel back and forth. Had the dealership fix it. THEY said they replaced the ( rack and pinion ) for the steering on the car. Don't think there is a recall on that. GM had a lot of problems with that popping noise on their malibu maxx. Hope that might help.

Humming noise from front end

Sounds like a bad wheel bearing - have it checked out at a reputable shop and changed, the sooner the better.
