The front axle has just been replaced. There was no clicking sound before in reverse gear when driving. Is it possible the mechanic did something wrong? forgot something. I was told, I need a axle replacement when the mechanical clutch was replaced? I am thinking of going back to mechanic, but what should I say?

He did something wrong. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.

Chris: You posted this AND a shifting issue for this vehicle. What is the time line of events for these problems? They could be related to a failed driveshaft replacement job especially if both issues came up at the same time. Axle (a half shaft with two CV joints) could be bad and make noise out of the box. I swear as they are so called rebuilt only the obvious of two CV joints will be replaced and new boots and sell it again as all checked out. Not convinced myself, the real test is once in a car again. Either way should go back it didn't work out as HT said done wrong and I add part issue possible. Check the shifting stuff while there as well, T chris777 Novice May 17, 2016, 1:44 PM Post #4 of 4 (2039 views) Re: Clicking sound in reverse after front wheel axle repair Sign In I had brought my car to the mechanic in for the shifting issue. The mechanic said he thinks it might be a a clutch problem as he did not experience it himself . While replacing the clutch ( which then did not fix my shifting issue ), I asked him to inspect the car for hazards. He said my front axle has to be replaced, it looks really bad. That is how this came about. In did not have the clicking sound in reverse before. I only have heard sometimes in first gear some other sound in the front. So I guess I will bring it back to the mechanic .However I a still at a loss with the shifting issue.   Email This Post   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
