Ok well I have had a problem for awhile now, I thought it was a cv till I got to the cv and noticed it was fine. Checked alot of the drivetrain and im still stumped. Me and dsmed checked over the whole car and only found one odd thing that could cause the noise im getting.
example-
1st gear I let out the clutch and I start to move. Above 10 mph i hear a click click click type noise. that speeds up with speed.
Push in clutch-gone. shift to 2nd let out clutch, click click click again still doing it with the speed of the car.
push in the clutch, gone. Shift to 3rd. GONE! No noise after 2nd gear.
The location is near impossable to locate because my car is so damn noisey. im clueless.
So a summary
1st \
} clicks while torque is at the wheels
2nd /
3rd gear the noise is gone
No noise change while turning
The drive shaft has a slight amount of play to it. You can move it forward and backward about 1/2 an inch. Is this normal?
Any insight helps! I drive 40 miles to work every day so I need to get this knocked out!
