So lately I've been noticing my car making this strange clunk sound whenever the car surges foreward a bit ie: taking off from a stop light, slow shifting ect. Even stranger is the sound (sometimes) happens when I first sit down in the car....It sounds like two aluminum pipes slapping together. Axles clicking maybe? Has anyone had something like this?

Also I'm noticing a 2-3 bar drop in temp on the stock gauge when Im cruising on the highway, is that normal with a pwr radiator? My other 87's gauge would drop temps anytime you accelerated so I knew it was malfunctioning, so maybe this one is too?

Do you have a thermostat that's working properly? What kind of temperature was it outside when cruising on the highway?
