Hello everyone,
I'm going to get right into the point...my car has been making a loud grinding noise when I punch the gas for about two months now. If I am traveling behind someone and punch it to pass them, it makes that loud noise. If I am sitting at a stop sign and punch it, it makes that noise. I have no idea what it could be, and before I take it to the mechanic to get checked out and get charged $80 dollars for someone to just look and see what it is, I was hoping the Grand Prix community could help me with this. The noise doesn't occur when I take off normally, and/or drive normally. I do not see any difference with the transmission shifting...it shifts as normal as can be. And when I say "grinding" its the best word I can use. It's more of a rapid tick/tap grinding noise. It has been two months before this post, and I am just getting around to finally wanting to figure it out.
I did do a search before putting this up on here, but it didn't find anything for me. If you know of another thread that might be worded differently and has the answer, that would be awesome. Any help is very appreciated. My car has other unknown problems too, but for right now, this noise is my main concern.
Thanks,
Josh
