I have a 99 Legacy Brighton, manual transmission. Lately it has been making a
clunking noise sometimes when I turn. I took it to my local mechanic, whom I
trust, and they checked CV boots, and tried installing replacement front axles.
The noise is still there. The mechanic says he has isolated the problem to
something internal in the transmission, and that we may be looking at $2000 to
replace it. He does not do transmission replacement, so we would have to go
elsewhere.
We have had the car maintained at scheduled intervals at the dealer. Is this
common, for a transmission to go at only 89,000 miles? Is there anything else
it could be?
Thanks...
