I just replaced the motor in my car. I took many things off the car. Now there is a noise coming from my motor/transmission like something is loose and banging. It only happens when I'm in gear. It goes away when I step on the throttle in the low gears. Cruising, it's very loud with constant low throttle.
I'm hoping it's just the transmission mount. Any experiences? Suggestions? O yea. I'm going straight when this happens. As I replaced an axle too. |

Sounds like a mount or possibly exhaust? |

It's unlikely it's a mount if it happens when you're cruising.
Check your axles. The inner joints. Hard to say without being there though. --------------------  |

yea. never knew a wheel bearing could make that noise, as the other side was a completely different sound.
