    I recently was in an accident in my 2004 GTP and right front my suspension was taken out. I was unaware of the damage and tried to move out of harms way and when I gave the car gas I went nowhere and it sounded like the splines that grab onto the CV axle have been stripped and are skiping over the teeth on the axle. If anyone might know what is broken off the top of their head that would be great. Im hoping its an easy fix and that I will not need to have my trans replaced, Thanks!

    Broken CV joint, snapped axle, broken differential, internal trans. problem... only way to know for sure it to get under there and inspect it, or just start removing damamged parts and inspecting everything very carfully.

    Most likely the inner tripod snapped. I have had it happen under hard accel before.

    Inner tierod you mean? That would have nothing to do with the trans at all.

    I think it's goosed.

    I bought a Regal a while back with right front suspension damage, replaced all of it down to the snapped control arm. The differential was trashed from the impact and the sprocket cover was cracked. At that point it was cheaper to source a used transmission than to go on a parts hunt and possibly still not have it all work.
