waynos 0 Posted August 5, 2008 driving home from work yesterday and i noticed a clattering noise, thought nothing of it but i pulled over to check if anything had been caught up in the wheels but nothing. It makes a really strange clattering noise in first gear, if i put my foot down on the clutch its still there. once i go into second its quiet again. ive also noticed that if ive decelerated say from 30 to a standstill and i go into first you can kind of hear a crunching and you can feel it in the gearknob too (only happens for a second or two) As if i tried to go into gear with no clutch. Today i just got back and was reversing up to the house and it felt like it was juddering. Sorry for such a long post hope somebody can help. (really wished i thought twice before buying another corrado!) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jon_vr6 1 Posted August 5, 2008 driveshaft - CV joints was a clunky noise on the GF's corrado when her cv joint went! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CorradoVR6-Turbo 0 Posted August 5, 2008 sounds like a gearbox or possible clutch noise,can you get a mate to drive it or work the gears and hear if its from the box area? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
waynos 0 Posted August 5, 2008 its not really a clunk sound more like a clattering.i have some spare 16v driveshafts, might swap them onto it and see if theres a difference. If its not that id rather it be a clutch than a gearbox. Theres no way of checking without taking the box off though :( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jon_vr6 1 Posted August 5, 2008 See if there is any play in the driveshaft cv joints first! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
waynos 0 Posted August 6, 2008 what kind of play? i tried to tug on the driveshaft itself and there was the tiniest bit of movement. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jon_vr6 1 Posted August 6, 2008 play as in broken play! Is there noise coming from the wheel area near the driveshafts? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
waynos 0 Posted August 6, 2008 nah not as in broken, i mean like the tiniest bit of movement when trying to rotate it. im suspecting the clutch as i get a slight judder when i reverse also. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
