what is up with my car
 

i just got my 04 g a few months ago and it only had one owner no accidents and the owner was an older guy and the car looked pretty well mainteined it has 41,000 miles on it and makes all kinds of noises. Are these noises normal or what? Clanking noise in first or second gear when i hit the gas kind of hard and let off it coming from the rear, sometimes while sitting in neutral i'll hear rattling coming from the front and when i push the clutch in it stops (throw out bearing?) and my gear shifter vibrates a lot is this normal.

take it in for service :D

did you test drive it before you purchased it? did you not notice these then? my 03 Coupe does the same, its normal. You can always take it to the dealer to see what they think but i suspect they will just tell you its normal

We have noisy cars....

Not sure, doesn't sound normal

Both of those are normal.

maybe your car has a horse in it and its not happy when you make it go fast?

but seriously, my shifter rattles like crazy as well, especially on startup, get used to it, from what i hear.

i love my g but its a bit ridiculous that our cars making weird noises is considered "normal"

meh.... My G makes some noises depending on the situation!

Shifting sounds like syncros.

Noise in the rear was a fix at the dealer.

Rattling in the front may have to do with the throw out bearing. Maybe pops couldn't drive for ****.

Shifter vibration is somewhat normal. Shouldn't be too excessive, but these do have some.

what do you mean noise was a fix at the dealer?

Rear axle click?
