Like Larry, I also have a clunk from the rear when I change from reverse to
first and I've also gotten it when I've gone popped the clutch from first
to second. In addition, I get a rrrRRRRrrrRRR sound when driving.
Print isn't very good at sounds is it? What I'm trying to describe is a
growling sound that varies in pitch and volume.
All the signs of bad U joints in a driveshaft. The problem is that this is
a TR7 and the driveline doesn't have replaceable U joints.
What are my options? Can the thing be fixed or do I need to replace the entire
driveline? Can I bring the driveshaft to a driveshaft place and ask them to
cut it, put in real U joints and weld it back together? Could the noise
be something other than my U joints?
Thanks.
