My drive home from work a few weeks ago was uneventful, and the car drove like a supra should. The next day, however, I got lots of bad clicking and vibration from the drivetrain !!!?!?!?!?
The sounds in question are weird little clicks that range from soft to pretty loud. It sounds like it is coming from underneath the car near the middle but it's hard to say for sure. The vibrations get pretty bad on hard acceleration, and they come and go during normal driving. The engine is fine, it has a minor exhaust leak but whatever vibrations it may cause I am used to them so I can tell what is normal. Nothing has changed on it and nothing sounds different, so I am going to rule that out as a suspect. The only thing I have tried fixing is the carrier bearing, which had been well worn since the day I got the car. After replacing it, it seems that the noise and vibration are unchanged.
Any ideas? I won't go too far into what other crazy things/symptoms I have found, needless to say that I have almost no idea what I am doing or what usually goes wrong that could cause such a problem.
