Funny noise on acceleration?


Recommended Posts

My loyale has recent started making this clunking sound when I accelerate from a stop. It almost sounds like the axles are slipping? Anyone else heard similar noises? Doesn't really sound like a bearing but could be. Sorry i don't really know how to describe it.

probably the axle shaft inner joint.  clunk when turning is usually the outer joint, clunking on accel or decel is generally the inner joint.  generally you replace the whole axle, do a search here and there 1.3 million posts about axles.

yah, do some research.  the aftermarket axle market is horrible and many companies put out crap axles.  at least give extra time because sometime you go through a few that are bad right out of the box before you get one that holds.
