Thanks,


Just got off with a local (highly praised) mechanic, told me to bring it in tomorrow morning, I tried to explain to him my observations, and he ruled out axles for the moment, saying I should only hear something after an extensive amount of driving, and about the bearings, that I would always hear something, not off and on like I do, so he said its probably the sway bar link? I told him I would first only hear it with a large load (2+ rear passengers, or a good amount of weight in the trunk, or both).

Anyone know if this could be the problem, before I look like a noob that wont even change his own oil tomorrow?
