1st/ Reverse : feel and hear something loose

Hi,

I have a new problem; if I'm going on reverse and right after I go foward, I can feel a '' clunck'' in the pedals and I can hear it, but it's a hidden sound.

Samething if I'm slowing down ( for a stop) and accelerate right after.

I guess it's my cv joint, but how can I check it?

Thanks

Could be the CV's, but it could also be a worn control arm bushing. Usually when the CV's go, they click badly when accelerating in a turn.

That was I'm thinking, got no clicking when turning and accelerating or if i'm hit a speedbump or a hole.

Thanks, I'm gonna check my bushing, I'll probally put some energy one.

Good guess, but tranny mount are strong...

And no, it's not metallic yet, that why im considering the bushing issue. It's a far far sound, but I can feel it in the pedals...

Oh, btw , it appear right after a 1/4 mile session...
