I’m hoping I might be able to get help here. I got a question regarding a manual 2005 Accord that I own.
Last couple of weeks I began noticing a peculiar sound when I change gears, it only happens some times it seems and is more pronounced from 1st to 2nd, now and then to 3rd and 4th and rarely to 5th but I HAVE heard it.
Basically it is like a click or somewhat of a clunk after I have changed the gear and the weight/power is transferred to the drive shafts or wheels (not sure). I’ve noticed it happens more when I have changed the gear at low rpm’s (2k-2.5k) for the 1st to 2nd. There is also a bit of jerkiness felt, almost like when traveling on 1st or 2nd in a parking lot and pressing and letting off the gas.
I know I have a loose lower right ball joint and loose both front upper ball joints. Could they be the reason for the sound? I feel the vibration from the sound when I have my foot on the clutch but every other aspect of the tranny feels fine. Please help me out with any input or advice you may have.
Thanks much.
Best regards,
Pablo
