How do you know if your cv joints are bad? how do you know if the differential is bad too?
When im taking a hard curve, I somtimes heard a little "rubing kid of" sound, those this mean I broke something? Its minimal, you could only hear it if your near a high sideway (sound reflection) and you have your head outside the window. Im scared...

Re: tranny prob? (GTi 1.8T)

The easist way to tell if your CVs are bad is to go to a flat parking lot and go in circles slowly. If you here a clicking noise from the front on either side then your joints are going bad. As far as the rubbinhg noise, check your tire clearence against your fender. I noticed you have h&r's, maybe you have them set a little to low.
