Really loud click sound!!!
So.. i was driving home, and i hear this horrible click sound. I could feel it in the shifter. It depends on the car speed. If i'm not currently accelerating it makes no sound. It's a really wierd thing. My dad thinks it's the transmittion. I dunno what to think. I will admit i've driven it pretty hard, but never power shifting. It is a manual. It does it when the car is off too. It only has 67,000 miles on it.. so i dunno why it happened. Well cya.

Re: Really loud click sound!!!
Could ya be a lil more descriptive?<P>Is it a constant clicking when you're accelerating, more pronounced when you accelerate into a turn from a stop? Or is it just an occasional click?

Re: Really loud click sound!!!
it is a constant clicking that varies with the speed of the car. It isn't a drive shaft.. cause i've experienced that. This is pretty loud, and stops clickin for a brief moment if I give it gas. Even when I'm coasting down a hill in nuetral and rev it, it will go away. But while i'm not reving... it does click profusly. Thanx

Varies with the speed of the car or the engine? <BR>If it's constant with the speed of the car it could still be a CV joint with a cracked/broken basket.<BR>Anything other than that could be inside the tranny itself,... Goto a local tranny shop & have a mechanic give a spin around the block. It's free & could save ya some grief if ya do it sooner rather than later. Could be nuthin, could be ur gears gettin ready to take a big hairy one.

i am sure it's the differential. this car has one of the smallest ring gears i have ever seen. on rare ocasions i drive my car hard and so far i have gone through three differentials. each differential developed a crack in the ring gear. the click sound is from the pinion gears poping.
