You guys were great last time i had a problem, hopefully you can help me again, I'm getting a knocking, not sure where its from, But i can have it at an idol and rev it, and it sounds great, but when its in a gear, and i give it light gas, i get a pretty loud knocking..

 

Remember i don't know much so please explain in child terms lol

With all the information at hand, I would say it is the fault of greece leaving the EU causing the knocking.

 

Now if you give us more information...

 

Year, model, engine, transmission, mileage.

 

Then

 

Exactly when does this happen? Is the car hot or cold, does it go away at all with increas of engine speed. What recent work has been done to the car.

It's a 1985 Subaru Gl wagon, Recent work, i got instructions from a post and re-timed the belts, i doubt its the problem its been running fine for weeks, And the car is at normal temperature, oh the engine is a 1.8l i believe, And with increase of gas is dulls, but then gets louder when i back off the gas some, But stops all-together when the pedal is untouched, downshifting, or just idling.

by the way, whats a eu and why is grease leaving it lol

 

Sigh nvm, im a little slow, i see wut u did there

how old is the clutch

uhh.. 35yrs old? maybe? idk

Wouldent i have problems with the clutch pedal if it was the clutch? or?

Well right now we are taking history, as it can still ba anything at this point. Is it a hallow sounding knock?

The way you describe it it sounds like a wrist pin... Hopefully not..

It litterally sounds like a fan hitting something, but its coming from idk right on the other side of the firewall

I did some testing on the way home, going about 15mph i put it in 3rd, it got higher and hollower, 4th even hollower, and 5th it sounded like a baseball card on a bike wheel

The way you describe it it sounds like a wrist pin... Hopefully not..

Thats what i was thinking.

 

 

Is that it?

i cant hear it at the moment, but i had the hood up and pulled the accelerater alot and it sounds good, i only hear it when im in gear in motion

Can be a cv joint, a universal joint is this has 4wdd to name a few things

its front wheel drive, but has 4x4, if its a cv or w/e can i dmg it more by driving it?

Ok the clunking stops when shifting a gear, does that cancel out it being a transmission problem?

where in Wa are you? im near tacoma and can look @ your car. i feel like two brains could hash this out. pm me if ya wanna get together

I moved here from new jersey, so im not sure of distances around here, but i live in Centralia

Ok so its my right front cv, Does anyone have any "How to" video's on how to uninstall and reinstall a new one?

Well ************ it, Somehow the car locked up and now all the transmission fluid is on the ground and where the bolt that holds it all in, theres a crack across the transmission. Its just one problem after Another.
