95LegacyL Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 I have a 95 legacy AWD with manual tranny. I am getting a nasty clunking sound coming from the rear of the car when i start off in first, and the car has no torque down low. I had it into a shop and they said the complete driveshaft needs to be replaced in the front and rear. The mechanic showed me how the driveshaft could be wiggled by hand and that was his reasoning that the whole thing needed to be replaced. I was talking to a guy i know about it and he said it could just be the U joints. Whats your guys opinion on this? Also there is a ticking noise when the car is in neutral and the clutch is up. When i press in on the clutch the ticking goes away. It seems to be less apparent once the car is heated up. What could this be? TIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moodybluesr Posted November 4, 2006 Share Posted November 4, 2006 The u-joints in your driveshaft are the "non-replacable" type... Here is where you can get some so you don't have to buy a whole new shaft: http://www.rockforddriveline.com/replacem.htm The clutch noise you are describing sounds like a throwout bearing to me, but I would really have to hear it in person to diagnose it for sure.
