Diagnostic Aids

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Pontiac Sunfire and 2004 Chevrolet Cavalier. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

All manual transaxles have gear play that might cause a clunk. If the transaxle is suspected of causing the clunk, compare it with a similar vehicle. An internal clunk in the transaxle is usually caused by wear between two components, or from improper assembly, which would also cause other symptoms.
