    Ticking noise + feeling under acceleration only?!

    08-03-2012 07:07 PM #1
    Hey, thanks in advance for any help!

    Selling my car and all of a sudden 90% of the time when I go from a stop, the car will make a ticking sound and I can feel it through the steering wheel. It happens up till 4th and then 5+6 are fine.

    Not to sure what it is. I've noticed my sway bar is rubbing, could that be it?
    It's an 03 24v VR6 (24ish FTG) and I heard their axels are different and rarely bind or are damaged.

    I've done research and haven't heard much. I'm going to check my wheel bearing as soon ad ican but if anyone else has input please let me know!

    Is the sound/feeling all the time? When exactly does it occur?

    Ticking from engine or drivetrain?

    Driving down the road going 60 then the worst noise I've ever heard in my entire life surrounded me. Turned the car off immidiately, popped the hood.. Engines sideways -__-


    Met with a guy earlier and he's coming next weekend to buy it.. Looks like this is now a non profit sale
