Hey everyone, I just picked up a Sportage and I'm new to the forums;
I know there is tonnes of threads posted about 4x4 not working and I'm sure this same topic has been covered somewhere but I can't pinpoint the exact post.
So here it goes. My Sportage sounds like it is constantly trying to engage 4x4 while in 2wd. Driving at any speed you can hear some sort of metal tingy sound, almost like a bearing of some sort and when you slow down and almost come to a complete stop there is a pretty heavy bang sound and the noise goes away. Once you accelerate it starts up again.
It does not do this while 4x4 is engaged. I believe it is something to do with the vacuum lines and I haven't had the time to inspect it fully yet.
If anyone has any ideas or input it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
