I was racing a truck as i was gettin on the highway, i saw he was coming in my mirror from behind, so i downshifted to 2nd doing around 45-50, i got a ACT Clutch. Anyways right after that i was taking a right turn for a exit, and i hear this noise like tat tat tat tat, like somthing was rotating and hittin somthin. I stoped to make sure a drive axle blew out, but it wasnt apparent. Any ideas before i got to the mechanic???

 

Wait... You're going 45-50... And you shift into 2nd gear? Then wonder what's wrong?

 

Like i was in 3rd or 4th, but still it shouldnt break it, in my mind anyway!

 

whats wrong with droping it into 2nd @ 50? i know my tranny can do 70 in 2nd and i have dropped it that far a lot when im racing my car makes a clicking when in accelerating?? dont know why but ya dont know what it could be ? what about your VTC's is it then that are clicking

Ive already disabled my vtc's. I guess im just going to have to go to the mechanic. ***k there goes money for rims i guess, well at least some of it. Hope its nothing serious.

 

but in my auto, i know not the same, in second gear i almost redlined at about 50+ mph.... so i cannot see why it would hurt the engine.. but the tranny is very different.... suto more sensitive, so your manual should be good....

 

wha.. huh ??? ur making no sense again bro ....

 

you probably just busted your axle... you probably had a bad cv joint and didnt fix it in time..

but then again, what do i know.. heh.

 

Yea im thinking CV joint. Its drivable, but im not of course. Im going to try and have a freind whos a mechanic look at it tommorow. If it is a CV joint or i have to replace the axle, how much is that for the parts?? Thanks
