Hey I need some help.<p> I was driving home today when my car started to make a really bad sound (and vibration) from the front passenger side of the car. It was like a thump on every rotation of the wheel but only when it was in gear and no throttle was applied. The sound instantly disappeared when I gave it gas. If I take it out of gear it makes the sound only very faintly but let off the throttle when it’s in gear and it comes right back.<p> Any ideas??
:(

Any situation like that i would check the CV joint. Its one weak part on these cars and if ya hear thuimping etc then it could easily be the problem.
