My (different) Noise under acceleration
Unlike Ap24, who has a post/thread about his CONSTANT noise under acceleration, mine is only happening once. For instance say I'm sitting at a stop light, and start accelerating, it's almost like the body shifts backwards. When I come to a stop and jab the brakes a little, its like it shifts forward.
My dad seems to think it is the U joint.. but i'm not convinced as it does it on decelleration. Any ideas?

Same here... Did the slip yoke service about 3 years ago, same old same old... I need to do it again..
Pretty easy to do and even if this is "not" the source of your clunk it would be a good idea to inspect and grease it anyway..

Could someone point me in the direction of how to perform a "slip yoke service?"
Also, the dealer told me i have a pinion seal leaking/seeping.... would that have any bearing on it? Thanks guys for the info

You'll find a lot of help there, including how to "grease your slip joint."

It's all good, Sean. After I saw you post the link, I added your thread before I even made that post! 
I've added a BUNCH of threads to the tech folder. There's really a crap ton of info in there.
