Guys, does this make sense? I took the rear wheels off, and the first
thing I noticed was my right rear seemed way too tight. So I adjusted it
back, and with the wheels off, went back to my investigating. In gear
with the wheels off, it's pretty quiet. I don't hear the grinding
anymore.
So I put the wheels back on, and took the car down the driveway. As soon
as I got back in gear, the noise was back - sort of a grinding popping
sound, like when gears aren't meshing properly.
Richard suggested possibly a broken gear, which seems likely, but would
that be more noticeable on the road as opposed to on the jacks? Just a
difference in the weight being supported on the axles vs by the frame on
the jack stands I suppose?
Thanks,
Mark
