1995 Toyota Corolla 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic 200000 miles
----------------------------------------------------------------
Hi,
I have a 1995 Toyota Corolla with 200,000+ miles. One day on my way home from work, I started getting a knocking noise with a vibration from my front end. It feels like it is coming from the axle, but I can't be sure it isn't coming from the engine.
When accelerating from a stop, the vibration and knocking noise are very prominent, and the knocking seems to coincide with the revolution of my tires. As I accelerate, the noise gets faster. Once I reach about 35 MPH, the knocking seems to even out, and is less noticeable.
I need to know where I should start looking. Could this be an engine problem, or a drive train problem?
As a woman, I've learned that if I take my car in without having an idea of what is wrong, it tends to cost me more because the mechanics think that I don't know any better and can get away with it.
PLEASE help!!! I'm desperate!
Thanks!
Jessi

thanks for the info. i did noticw today that the sound wasnt as loud as it has been, and the weather is considerably cooler. today it sounds more like a squeaking than a thumping/knocking.
would that make a difference?

i have the same problem and it is the hub bearing. this time last year it did the same thing on the left front side now its the right front side. lastly if you hear a clicking noise when you turn the wheel it may be the cv joint. if you push on the fender from the top and rock your car and you hear a clicking noise then its definitely the ball joint.........tell me if or what if you have solved this already.........squeely413
