My car is making alot of clunking sounds. Most of these are from shot suspension bushings, but lately I've been hearing a louder clunking on decceleration and turning. It seams to vary directly with vehicle speeds and goes away when I am on the gas. I plan to get under the car and investigate today. Also along woith the clunking a clicking sound can be heard when the car is rolling slowly. Seams to click when a wheel or something comes to a certain point in its rotation. Again, this varies directly with vehicle speed. Any ideas?

the click might be something dumb like a rock in the tire

i dunno about the clunk though

Ok I'm an idiot. Lug nuts were loose on both rear wheels. On the passenger side I lost 3 of them. Replaced the lug nuts and tightened them as hard as I could. Problem fixed.

UH OH.. Seems like you got the Vosko Curse.. and he has somehow been cured..

SacRippingFast 04-27-2003 12:24 PM

Is the vibration in your drive train? If it is....

Sounds like your diff.

Could be going out. Check your tranny fluid.

is an "e brake" the same thing as a "hand brake"?

Yes, it's the "emergency" brake
