Okay, a newish noise has begun. It actually started a while back but only when making pretty aggressive turns. Tonight, very cold, the noise happened just driving straight.
It is coming from behind me and low, a bit left. It is a light thunk thunk thunk and is the same speed as the yet to be fixed pulsing front brakes. .but is unrelated because it is from behind me. It slows down and speeds up with the speed of the car, unrelated to engine speed. CV joint? Something loose where the axle half connects to the transmission? Maybe?

sounds like a CV joint.
And my attitude towards the HOA is to just do the work anyway. you dont have a garage or carport? If you knew which CV, it can be replaced in about 30 minutes. Stu |

No garage or carport. . townhouses circa 1980. . lakefront, and remember, I'm on the board. . I would have to issue a 100 buck fine to myself. Without this rule, we'd have cars on blocks. . engines in parking spaces etc. .
It seems like a GENTLE drive to my friends would be okay?????? QUOTE(stugray @ Dec 10 2011, 10:03 AM)  sounds like a CV joint. And my attitude towards the HOA is to just do the work anyway. you dont have a garage or carport? If you knew which CV, it can be replaced in about 30 minutes. Stu |

So, you would write the check to yourself to pay the fine.. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Hmmm, you need our HOA - cars on blocks, sanding body work on driveways, assorted parts hanging from tree branches while they're being painted, compressor and air tools running late into the nights, etc., and that's just our house. But if I try to paint my shutters a different color w/o approval, watch out! Seriously, can't you at least put each wheel up and do a simple inspection - not much different from changing a flat, or is that against the rules? Concur that I would suspect a CV. My experiences with bad/loose bearings has been growling/rubbing sounds. |
