i heard weird clanking on the front left side wheel then about 10 seconds later the car just stopped (95 camry le)... now it just makes really weird sounds when in drive or reverse, won't go and GET THIS, can be pulled up or back while set in park with the motor off! anyone have any ideas? thanks in advance
there is a major fault with the drive shaft/joints or hub on that side. As the transmission only locks the crown wheel, if one drive shaft is able to turn (without moving the wheel) then the other can too (through the differential gears).

Yes, likely a C/V joint (or a broken axle) on that side...
Thank you guys so much, you were right on, it was a snapped cv and i didn't have to go to the mechanic without a clue about the situation. It cost $355 with towing (the guy recommended to replace the full axle)
