    So ive had this noise for about a month now and it is kinda weird to describe. You know those spring things that keeps you bathroom door's handle from putting a hole in your wall? well the sound it makes when you flick it kinda a warble sound, that is the sound my car is making. I only notice it when i am going under 30 mph and i let off the gas and coast, it may be doing it at higher speeds also but this is the speed where road noise and other trafic arent an issue. It sounds as if it is comming from the drives side c/v joint, best i can tell with out sitting in the engine compartment doing 30 down the road. Also when i am cruising and let off the gas there is a deeper sounding clunk when i get back on the gas comming from the same area, i suppose the two are realated.

    Some one told me it might be my c/v joint, but i thought when those went bad they made a clicking sound while turning. my best thougth are mabye it is a tranny mount and the clunk is it moving back and forth. and when coasting it kinda vibrates in there ?

    I am going to be doing my LIM here next weekend and i will have access to a jack so i can get under there and wiggle on some stuff, any one ever have this problem or have any ideas.

    Thanks in advance

    On a totaly seperate note after the car warms up and i am sitting at an idle when i turn my wheel the rpms drop and i get vibrations, i know with my polly uppers there would be more vibration but the rpms drop to like 500. but when i am in park and turn the wheel this does not happen any ideas on this maybe bad ground?
