If you want to book a ticking or rattling noise repair in Stapleford, you can compare quotes from our network of thousands of garages and mechanics, find the best price and instantly book online.
The A52 road follows Stapleford's southeastern border, connecting to Mablethorpe and Newcastle-under-Lyme. The town is also served by the A6002, which travels to Bulwell, and the A6007, which links to Codnor. The M1 motorway passes to the west. Since Stapleford is less than six miles from Nottingham, you could compare garages in both locations. Although the town has no railway station, trentbarton, Notts and Derby, and Nottingham County Council Fleet Services operate buses to destinations including Derby, Nottingham and Ilkeston.
Stapleford is in a rural area where you're likely to encounter uneven road surfaces and sharp turns, putting strain on your tyres and suspension. Regularly inspecting these components and following our tyre maintenance advice will help prevent any problems from developing. When driving through the countryside near Stapleford, keep an eye out for animals and livestock on the road to avoid braking suddenly, and be aware of other road users since there may be unmarked blind bends. Country roads sometimes flood during heavy rainfall, so check the forecast and take it slow through patches of water to avoid aquaplaning.
Ticking and rattling are two closely related noises you might hear from your car. If you listen closely to where the sound is coming from and when it happens (while accelerating, for instance), you might be able to work out the cause.
The first thing to check is whether the engine oil is low, requiring a top-up - this is the best-case scenario. If your car is rattling and the sound is coming from the engine, it could be caused by a loose serpentine belt or timing chain. From the car's rear, it might be a loose exhaust or a broken catalytic converter, and the other possibility is worn suspension, which can cause rattling from the front or rear of the vehicle.
Possible explanations for ticking include worn spark plugs, knocking engine rods, dirty valve lifters and misaligned valves. You can learn more about these issues here.
Ticking and rattling noises should be taken seriously as they sometimes indicate a problem with the engine that could cause further damage if ignored.
