well.. i finally broke something on the grand, and im not exactly sure what it is. when i back out of my driveway, and go over that small curb with my front axle, i hear clicks. then, i hear them often when i go over speedbumps or small things.

also, under acceleration, sometimes i hear a loud knocking, almost like what it sounds like when you have a broken tranny mount.. but it seems like its coming from the axle area or somewhere up front. any ideas would be appreciated..

As much as I hate to say it, it usually comes down to getting under there and finding it, or having someone drive it while you walk by it listening. Laying under it while someone rocks it hard back and forth also helps.

It could be just about, well, anything.
