Rear end noise
 
Started hearing a clunking noise from my rear end the other day. Today it got a lot worse.

When accelerating there is no noise, but as soon as I push the clutch in or when the car gets up to speed for the amount of throttle I'm giving it there is a constant clunking noise.

I'm hoping its just low on fluid. I don't have the right wrench size or socket size to remove the bolt to tell for the next few days.

Could it possibly be my wheel barrings? Or something in my rear end that went bad?

Its my DD N/A so the only beating it gets is me getting up to speed sometimes but I'm always easy when I shift and never drop the clutch or spin the tires.

It is very possible that you may have broken the front differential mount.

An inspection of the differential and associated undercarriage parts is necessary.

Could be a u joint as well. Does teh sound change when you move the car in reverse?

Bled my rear brakes and no longer hear the noise. But now I have air in the lines and almost no brake pressure. Waiting on someone to come help me bleed them. Thankfully it wasn't a major problem.

Got my TII injectors back today from servicing so its all good either way.
