Rumbling noise in Drive and Reverse when stopped

[jeffth71]

I have a 2019 TourX with 56k miles. Recently, it started making a distinctive rumbling noise in Drive and Reverse when stopped. it does not make the noise when stopped in Park or Neutral, or when driving, at least not that I can tell. Anyone have a similar issue. My first line of attach I'm thinking about is to change all the tranny and diff fluids to see if it makes a difference. They should probably be changed out now anyway. Any other ideas or experiences would be greatly appreciated!

Is it possible that the rumbling that you are hearing is the vibration of something like the exhaust/catalytic converter shield? It's not uncommon for there to be a vibration when the engine & transmission are torqued in park or reverse at idle.

could also be a motor mount failure (which I've not heard on these yet) but if the motor is off kilter until it's in gear it might be worth checking anyway. Otherwise I'd guess it's exhaust related

Thanks. I'll put it up on stands and see if I can find anything loose underneath. I was afraid it might be something expensive like the torque converter or something in the transmission. Fingers crossed.
