Cluncking noise
Cluncking noise
Ok, let me first mention that I have a stock suspension setup, and axles were changed ~2 years ago.
There's a cluncking noise when I accelerate from a stopping position. Like from a stop light or stop sign, that's when it only happens. It doesn't occur all the times, but very often. It sounds like it's coming from the front passenger wheel. I can feel it under my feet when it happens. I've been under the car and I can't find anything that's making the noise - very annoying. It's been happening for a few months, very slowly getting a little more often now. Any ideas?
---------------------
Oh, and another thing: is it normal for water to come down on the passenger side feet after running AC on for a long time? Condensation I guess? Never noticed it before. I usually don't run AC, but we were driving for about an hour so I had it on the whole time.

CV joint? Maybe...I don't know much about that though.
Would engine mounts make a noise at acceleration?
Any ideas about the AC problem though? Water coming down on the passenger feet area...

You shouldn't have water coming down . . . is it clean water or some AF? May be leaking from heater box. Condensation possible, but it shouldn't come into pass area. Maybe just a loose gasket where plumbing comes thru firewall. I haven't had that side apart, but you could look under dash with a trouble lite at the firewall . . . see if there's lite shining thru under dash.

check out # 7 in the Pic
Cooled Air condenses in the evaporator while it is being cooled. This water is being led out through the firewall (7.) to engine bay via the rubber nozzle:

CV joint: you would hear it more pronounced when turning.
