Default Big CLUNK.....

My car has been sitting about a week. I backed it out of the garage to rinse the pollen off, putting it in reverse and easing out the clutch...theres a CLUNK, it backs up smooth and seems there's no problem. Anyone else's car do this? Is it something I should be worried about?

I know how you feel I got a 14 year old and a 9 year old and stuffs flying all over the house all the time, except school work of course (both boys)
How can you live in "here we are at Augusta!" and not play golf!! The 4 year old can swing a club!

Its worse than that. I'm a badge holder (2 to be exact) and don't go to the Masters.

The four year old has no interest in anything but racing his battery opperated tractor...No kid in the neighborhood can pass him

My golf days basically ended with kids( 8 & 6 ), hope my track days don't follow, the only saving grace is that most DE's are during the week at the tracks up here, so the little devils are in school or terrorizing their Mom!
