    my Police Interceptor has 82k on it. Rather severe winter Goodyear tires on rear. At highway speeds, and above 45 mph, I hear a noise similar to the flap of helocopter blades..best description I can give. Increases with speed. I wonder if it tires or soemthing else. I don't feel any tire thump and tires are round..jacked up rear and spun wheels by hand with tin can next to tire...aw, c'mon..you've done the same thing over the years. Harold in Iowa

Tire balance or bad tire. Check rear shocks for oil leaking. If leaking replace them or problems will continue as well as unsafe driving conditions, especially in wet or snow conditions.

Knocking noise from rear passe ger side 2003

Your axle bearing is more than likely shot. The right side goes out first for some reason. Fairly inexpensive if you can do it yourself.

2003 Crown Vic Misfiring after acceleration

I just came up with that exact issue in my 2003 with 98K police crown vic. And the last time I had this issue in a 2001 police Crown vic it was the crank shaft position sensor. A $20 part and about 30 mins to put it in. located near the bottom of the engine. I had to un bolt the A/C compressor and push it out of the way a few inches to get to the sensor. If you have about 100K mile on it and its an idled heavy police car, this sensor should be changed out anyway. It can leave you on the road dead and some dealers have a hard time find out whats wrong as the OBD 2 does not see it as a problem when it goes bad or becomes touchy as I think mine is.
