Hello Everyone-

What I am experiencing is something interesting...
-> I have been experiencing that my shifter is a bit sticky when I put it in park. Then a bit later I get to my car, put it in drive and I hear a clunk.
Usually when sitting on a slight downhill area. (yes I use the e-brake.)

This is what I am hearing:
* When I put the car in drive, car moves forward by itself is when the sound will start. It sounds like a harmonic spinning and grimming sound, not floppy rough, still smooth driving, just a harmonic kind of grind...

It does get going with the speed of the car. Doesn't really sound like a wheel bearing... Since the sound starts @ 2mph and tends to fade away at higher speeds... Let me know everyone what you are thinking!!

Could any of these be possible; Center bearing bad? Universal Joints bad? Diff oil low? THESE are the only things I can come up with... Let me know if anyone has had this issue.

THANK YOU GUYS A MILLION!!!!
