Question type: Maintenance & Repair

We don't drive it a lot right now but our 1992 Privia Mini van develeped a funny tick or ping sound under the van in the back maybe the transmission. It goes down the road fine but the noise is annoying and obviously has some sort of problem. It started on a round trip road trip last year in August 2014 of 1400 miles still runs and we just don't know why it makes that sound. Or what it is. if it will go a long time or if it is a minor or major problem. Maybe a sensor? Don't know

My 1992 Previa 1992 didn't pass the emission test. Check engine light not on. The NO level is too slightly high. It need to be 956 or lower on the 25/25 test and it pass on the 50/15 the first time. 4 Answers
