Subject:      CV or Transmission shot???...Input needed?
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

Hello All....


Latest adventure in my 1990 Carat w/auto
transmission...affectionately known these days as The
Anti-Christ....




So, there we are...big as life...cruising down the
road on a sunny summer morning....windows
open..curtains flying in the breeze...


"What's that noise, Dad?" asks my 10 yr-old daughter.


"What noise...I don't hear a noise" I casually
reply... my ears perked up in anticipation of another
side-of-the-road epic.


Suddenly a "pop" and the van (in drive) acts like it
is in neutral...then an ominous clunking.


Pull over....shut her down...Girlfriend looks under
Vanagon as I start her up & put in drive. Noise again.
She informs me the Passenger Side Rear CV axel is
shaking all over the place.


So...if the CV is bad will it account for the Vanagon
acting as if in neutral....or did something in the
Trans go???


All input appreciated...
