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?

Unless your very large chested, you should be able to get far enough under the rear to grab, shake, and inspect cv's and axles.
BTW, I've heard wheel bearings make the exact noise you describe. At least jack up each rear wheel and check them (grab tire a 12 and 6 oclock and try to move it up and down). You could be done before anyone can get the camera turned on. Actually, you wouldn't even be working on the car, just testing the jack. Twice. |
