Not on a guess-- surely

Still has to be driven & the problem diagnosed,
no matter what kind of guess your given

Have to find a problem before you can resolve it

Check the front drive axles and boots. A bad cv (constant velocity) joint can cause this.

If it is a factory keyless system than you do need it done by the dealer, but if it is an after market system then reply back with manufacture and model.

Two things maybe your problem:1 .Front axle actuator to engage 4wd is not releasing. 2. Front axle u-joint needs replacing. Lift car on jacks with front end off ground. Then spin tires by hand as fast as you can and see if you hear the noise and where it is coming from ( spin in both directions).

Testimonial: "Thank you! It was the actuator that was causing the problem."

Fuel pump replacement. You may be able to just replace the fuel level sender. There was a recall on the fuel pump relay.

Engine misfiring

I always replace plugs with same brand and number as came out whenever possible, just for that reason. I've seen too many engines run bad after changing from manufacturers recommended plugs.
