Through reading the posts in this group, I was able to determine that I had a problem with my CV joint, and had to replace both axles on my
92 Accord. A certified Honda mechanic verified that both axles should be replaces, and that this was better than just replacing the joints. I took it to a mechanic that my father-in-law recommended, and he replaced both axles for a very good price. So no more clicking sound when I turn, but this has been replaced with a new noise. When I picked up the car, I took it for a test drive, and there was a squealing sound when I accelerated while turning. The sqealing sounded like metal-on-metal. But the car also made the sound while accelerating straight ahead. The mechanic said it could be a clutch problem, and that it could have been there behind the axle click noise, but I heard that click for about a year, and I would have heard a squeal like this. He said to listen to it for a while, and if I wanted, he would remove and re-install the axles again. I'm convinced the sound is coming from something he did or didn't do when replacing the axles, but he said it wasn't.Well, that was 4 days ago, and the squeal is gone, but now there is a knocking that I can feel through the gas pedal when I'm accelerating in low gear. It only happens when I'm in 1st and second gear, and the knocking/rumbling sound gets more intense the harder I push down the pedal. Once I get going, the sound is gone, so that seems to rule out an engine problem.
I've read similar posts, and everything from heat shield to the ABS has been mentioned. I have ABS, so I'm wondering if this was the cause. Anybody know what the deal is? Thanks.
