I don’t have a ton of info on this yet and I owe this community a little more detail and effort of my part before expecting too much. That said…
I have 44k trouble-free miles on my ‘19 LR AWD - other than front control arms, which were replaced under warranty earlier this year.
I put 200 miles on the car today, and in the last 20 miles or so, I started hearing what sounded like a rubbing or squeaking noise from the rear end, only while coming to a gentle stop. It caught my attention, but was faint and not 100% certain that it was actually my car - I was behind a truck, so there was some uncertainty.
However, in the last 5 miles of my trip, I heard - and felt - a single, significant mechanical popping or clunking sound when beginning to move forward from stopped at a light. It sounded as though my hitch receiver was coming off. I immediately pulled into a parking lot to inspect, but could find nothing wrong under or around the rear end. I drove the rest of the way home (5 miles) without incident.
First thing I’ll do tomorrow is check the torque on the lugs.
Anything else I can inspect? I’m really not a “whistle past the graveyard” kind of guy.
