Rear Axle Clunk (Please Report Here!)

Read T

Let us know how it goes. I filed a complaint with them for my clutch pedal breaking off and they wouldn't do anything about it. My dealer did just repack my axles for free though.

I can get a clunk when I shift from Park to Reverse and let the break go as the car start rolling. if I press on the break and stop the car, it will not clunk again until I shift to first gear and back to Reverse. I'm thinking to bring it in to dealer and have them look up the brushing see if that is the problem. I had change the diff fluid around 6 month ago.

They just replaced the entire driveshaft here.

The same noise is coming from my front end now too. Same as your cause in shift mode going from 2nd into first. I'm going to have them check it. If they say nothing is broken, I will take note of this and bring it back to them if there was something wrong.

I think it's frustrating having a clunk sound though. I will update Thursday once I get my vehicle back from the dealer and see what they say about the front clunk.

Do you hear your rear shake or shutter at a cold start up? It happens to me on very cold mornings.. I have a 7at and when going to a stop on shift mode it clunks going from second to first gear for me.

I have the 7at as well it happens when I put it into D or coming out of D and into R. M mode or 1st gear it does not.

Yes. Exactly what happens to me. I am hopeful it's not another driveshaft or axle replacement but I will update all tomorrow!

So....after a couple hours waiting in the waiting room, the service manager, tech, and service advisor call me out. Explain to me why the rear was replaced (loose bracket or something) and the front is nothing to worry about and it will harm nothing.

While I half heartedly believe them, I'm glad I brough it in, so that way if something does break in the near future, they had an opportunity to fix it and hopefully after warranty expires they'll fix it since I logged this as a potential issue.

I'll update all once my front axle unbolts itself from my car at freeway speeds.

God bless

Looking for the rear axle / hub torque specs. I have tried to find them but I have come up empty handed. Trying to fix the rear axle clunk noise. Thanks.
