Problem-

My 1995 Talon TSi AWD That I recently bought has a weird Clanking noise from the front of the car and it kinds shakes the car also. It olny happends when I ride the clutch from idle untill about 2k or so. And if I rev it to about 2,500- 3k And swiftly pull the clutch out there is no noise...nothing.

Im ruleing out any of the clutch componets as they have all been replaced. Im thinking either transmission mounts, or CV joints.


All help is appreciated,
Dan
 
Would that cause the entire car to be shooken?
What should I look for on the crank pulley?

Any more ideas guys??
I need to get this problem fixed.

See if the pulley wobbles, check for rub marks on the lower timing belt cover from the pulley. I doubt it will make the whole car shake though.
 
Yeah, I really dont think thats it....

If it was something like the pulley then I think it would do it no matter my rpm's or speed.

Any other ideas guys?
