Weird grind\rattle taking off in 1st gear 2019 Jimny was created by mattjimny

Hi guys just wondering if anyone with a 2019 Jimny is noticing a weird grind\rattle noise only taking off in first gear under some load. It doesn't sound like it comes from the gearbox maybe the front axle\hub im not sure.

Cheers!

Welcome to the forum. Could it be a heat shield? Or is it a more determined noise than that. Probably best to get the dealership to examine it, it's what the warranty is for.

Yes, me. Sounds like it's coming from the rear axle are to me. Does it the 1st time I pull away quite quickly for most trips. I did wonder if I had something loose in the back but can't find anything

Mine does it now and again it started at about a 1,000 miles in. The 2008 Gen3 at home does it as well. I suspect the fuel tank shield but refuse to lose sleep over it.

There is a known issue with knock from the steering when pulling away?

Mine's not a rattle or a knock, more a grind, about 1/2 second long. Only does it once and only sometimes, on first sharpish pull away.

Well that weird! Yes i am. From starting off in 1st, and only wen im giving it some, it makes a very short "ziip" noise.

Here's some other words to describe the sound;

Waspy zzzźzz
Micro grind
Ziiiz

It's quite likely it's the abs pump that you are hearing. I haven't noticed it on my gen4, but it was really noisy on my gen3.

Hey, im having the exact same noise on mine. Seems to happen when i take off on slope or get off the line a bit more quickly.

I havent had a chance to go back to the dealership to check it out but let us know what the verdict is.

Cheers.
