Alright i only hear this when i start driving from a halt.
I don’t know how to really explain it but its like a metal clicking noise. i don’t hear it when I’m driving at normal speeds, but that could just be because the road drowns it out.
Could it be my diff, i changed the fluid not to long ago but that didn’t help.
???
i dont know what else it could be.

hmm…might be a bearing or something, have it checked out by a mechanic for better measures.

my guess is the cv joint, one of the guides is worn and the ball is popping in and out as it turns at low speed… while at high speed it floats in the grease
have it rebuilt, or get junkyard parts…
