Is there any way to determine where the actual source of the driveline whine is besides removing the back half of the driveshaft and inserting the FWD fuse? If I remove the rear half of the driveshaft, will the differential still whine? Now it doesn't seem to make any difference if I am on- or off- the throttle. Will just putting the FWD fuse in indicate anything? What should I look/listen for? Thanks, mpergielwalkermi99forester08forester -
I think my center support bearing is wearing out (squeels, squeeks, etc). I've read how to replace them, but I have not been able to find the center support bearing. Any Ideas, suggestions, criticisms,etc would be much appreciated. Thank you very much! -

I recently bought a Subaru, and on the way home from driving it, I felt an odd wobble coming from what I thought was the back right wheel. It shook the whole rear of the car, but eventually tapered off. The wobble returned on higher speeds (65-75mph). I thought they were just the junk tires on them, but was diagnosing some other things at the shop and am lead to believe it's a bad drive shaft going into the rear differential. The car is an automatic, and I noticed it also kicks when shifting as it gets up to speed, especially up hills. I jacked the car up on all fours and turned it on, put it in drive and tried to replicate the sound. It's like a clanking sound. The one forum I found on this type of stuff was this: http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/topic/128947-loud-banging-noise-felt-vibration-from-tunnel-area/ but before I try all of their troubleshooting I was going to see if anyone could pick out the sound first. Is the clanking sound happening because the car is moving with no force against the tranny, and it's in a sense, looser? Or is it the U-Joints making the noise because they're worn? Any help would be appreciated, I like this forum a lot and could see myself learning a lot from you guys, any help is appreciated! Thanks, Robert Suby.wmv
