Hey matt, im running a 05 caddy srx, 3.6 with awd. I dont have a clunk, but a very aggressive POPPING sound, when accelerating from a stop, moderate load (gotta take off easy and it wont make the noise). It sounds like the tcase chain is jumping teeth on the sprockets inside. But, maybe its the pinion in the rear diff. Or, maybe the axle shaft splines stripping in the wheel hubs. I tried to diag, by supporting truck on jackstands, and truck wont make the noise. Power braking should do it, but i guess with the suspension fully "droop" it keeps me from duplicating the popping sound. I feel like maybe i need to get it on an alignment rack... Have you came across anything like i am describing?
What a stupid idea to put only one bushing. i have a stsv and it's been 3 times now that i change the bushing. now i ill fill the voids in the bushing with urethane
Well, sir, can't deny that it isn't a stupid idea. But when a customer says he wants one bushing done now and 1 done down the road. I'm not gonna argue with that. That's just 2 payments, and that differential is pretty easy to remove. You've seen this whole video as 13 minutes long. But yes, as I mentioned on the video. It is a stupid design and they fail quickly.
@@ParkersMobile they fail easily because of my earlier comment, the driveshaft will vibrate from the bearing coupler thats in the center underneath the car, when the rubber around the bearing gets shot out it causes the vibration which causes your rear bushing to blow out after the second time i figured this out..
Love your show your the best mechanic out there a lot of other mechanics are rip offs
Actually kinda irks me off that dude wouldn’t let you put new differential fluid in there💀🤣
Some people say you dont have to remove the cv axles that you can just pull the two bolts and it will drop down enough to remove the bushing
Im in Northern Ontario Canada and there have been times i have had a 5ft pry bar on an axle giving it the fkn beans and that thing dont wanna let go 😂

I need some help with my Cadillac CTS
If you adjust your sway bar does it mess with your alignment ?? May be a dumb question lol
