Unusual Noise Diagnosis for 2020 Nissan Rogue
A persistent, location-ambiguous noise in a 2020 Nissan Rogue could stem from several sources, ranging from worn brake components to exhaust leaks or engine issues. Since it occurs all the time, it's likely related to moving parts or a constant system operation.
Diagnosis Details
Possible Causes
Worn brake pads or rotors causing a grinding or squealing sound, often heard even when not braking due to pad wear indicators contacting the rotor.
Exhaust system leak (e.g., cracked manifold, gasket failure) producing a ticking or hissing noise that increases with engine speed.
Engine accessory belt or tensioner issue (e.g., worn belt, failing bearing) causing a chirping or squealing sound.
Wheel bearing failure resulting in a humming or rumbling noise that changes with vehicle speed.
Internal engine noise (e.g., valve train, timing chain) due to low oil or component wear, producing a tapping or rattling sound.
