2002 eldorado makes a loud noise when I'm driving. If I'm parked and pressing the gas I don't hear it but as soon as I begin to drive and I get around 15 mph I hear it coming from the passenger side. I don't know if it's coming from the wheel on that side or under the hood.

If the noise doesn't change when you turn left or right while you are moving than The first thing I would look at is the tire. Check for uneven wear or cupping. The tread should be worn evenly and smoothly all the way around the tire. Something you can try to at least eliminate the tires as the problem is to rotate the tires. If the noise changes, stops, or moves from the front to the rear than you know its the tires.

If the noise still persists after rotating the tires than we will have to think of something else.

98 lincoln continental making noise when not accelerating. No noise when in park but when driving and ease of gas noise starts until I begin to accelerate again.

Hi Audrey:
I would be suspicious of a worn universal in the drive train.
When under load, the pressure hold the joint tight so there is no noise. When not under load, the slack in the joint allows it to move, making the noise.
To track it down I would put the car on a hoist so the wheels can be turned back and forth. the slack component will soon be identified.
Cheers

Loud Engine Noise

Hello, it's probably not safe to drive, noises are never good news, I would suggest that you check the engine oil and if it's low add oil to it and hope it's not too late to prevent engine damage.

Blazers in park = rattling noise ..... Blazers in drive = whining sound & while driving on interstate (ranging 35mph-65mph) I can feel it hesitate when I press on gas almost as if it can't (but it doe)...

have you had the catalytic converter checked. When they break apart they will make a rattle ling noise. eventually the broken pieces will plug the exhaust and cause a lack of power feeling. When the exhaust is cold hit the bottom of the catalytic converter with your hand. If it rattles it is bad and needs to be replaced.
