General Marea '' tak tak '' noise

[javednazeer]

:bang: Hello again. I have recently notice a '' tak tak'' noise when engaging 1st or second gear or sometimes while I'm coming near junctions and while engaging the second gear. It makes me believe that the driveshaft must have worn out. It only happends randomly. If I release the clutch brutally, there is nothing, its only when I'm driving docile, 30 mph cruising around town. Any help just to confirm what is sounds like to you all guys. Thanks a lot.

Does it make this noise when driving around a tight corner or turning at a junction? Your description is pretty vague.

If it's predominantly when turning one specific direction it's likely to be a CV joint. None of your magic bottles of oil are going to fix that one if it is.

Does this happen when accelerating or braking and is it constant or just the two knocks?
