Rear Axle Clunk (Please Report Here!)

Guavazo · 11-04-2014, 07:56 PM

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.
