Transmission noise
I was heading to work in the morning with my 95 awd automatic with 220k and when I accelerated from a stop I heard a clunking sound. At first it sounded like something could have been loose like an axle popping out and not engaging. I took it home and checked out it later. When I drive at a very slow speed regardless of drive or reverse it will move and then feels almost like the Park is trying to re-engage. If I drift really slow it will move forward, then make the clunk and stop for a split second, then go again and will do it all over again. I'm not sure exactly what the problem is and any help is appreciated.

Re: Transmission noise
If that happened to me, my first guess would be the front differential has tanked.

Re: Transmission noise
Yep, front diff. Drain the oil and look for a nice lil tooth stuck to the drain plug

Re: Transmission noise

Re: Transmission noise
Thank you for the replies, I am assuming it is the front differential. I will examine it at some point in the future when I have time to do so.

Re: Transmission noise
Why so many diff failures on SVX, diff gears are some of the most hardy parts of any car or should be, never had one fail, just curious. Good day all ..........G
