Rear differential problem?
I have the X this week because Mandi took my car home to get it fixed. I finally get a chance to find some problems (i know there are a few). Here's one for ya.
Everytime the car shifts to second gear (only does this on THAT shift, in drive or 3), i hear a mild thump and a short lived mild vibration coming distinctly from the rear of the car. It doesn't have a noticeable effect on power. What's the deal? |

Could be the rear diff, have you checked the grease in it?
It could also be the rear universal joint, or even one of the rear axle CV joints, If you jack it up (or put it up on a lift) and check for play in all those componets, it should point out the culpret. Hope this helps,
