2003 Z

I launched my car pretty hard about a month ago after my 7 year old asked me to 🤣🤣

Anyways right after, my Z was making noises from the rear, specially under acceleration.
I went over a speed bump and it went away.

But now when I step on the gas I feel/hear as if it's "engaging" from the rear. It drives perfectly fine besides the harsh start from a stop light. Also when I accelerate harder than usual, I hear a noise again until I stop or at least accelerate normal.

I lifted the rear and I see nothing wrong. No broken arms or axles. What else would it be? I would think the diff but besides hard acceleration, it's perfectly fine.

 

How many miles are on this Z? When was the diff fluid last changed?

 

175K.

Diff fluid maybe 2 years ago with OEM fluid.

 

Maybe diff bushing is toast

 

At 175K, there could be several possibilities. When you had the Z lifted, did you take it out of gear and rotate the tires to check how the rotational play feels? Also, check the axial play while you're at it to see how the rear wheel bearings are faring on each side.

 

I also want to know why rear end noises after hard launch and I am searching for the solution online. I am glad I found your post in which I found my answer. I also find the https://www.topwritersreview.com/blog/essay-draft/ website where I found useful information regarding essay draft. I always face problems in writing essay assignments and that is why I always need someone to complete my essay assignment.

 

In case anyone searches this in the future, one of the axles was broken lol
