Thank You all for being here . Wife was driving going on to highway
heard thunk. Car no longer moved. She pulled over and engine still
running car wont move in all gears and even rolls in park.
had car towed back home Tow truck guy said trans or CV joints. That
what I was thinking but how do you tell quickly or easily if possible
determine trans or CV? I have been reading other post but nothing
exact to this 3.3 liter w/o OD 160K on car not orig owner so who
knows what been done
Thanks Again in Advance,
Bill W.

Ok I might jumped the gun it turned out to be a broken CV drive shaft
on the drivers side. I was able to see once i got my fat $(^ under
the car to look. did it myself with handtools and floorjack wasn't
the hardest but wouldn't suggest for anytone to do on there own. Had
to borrow a 1/2 drive 32mm socket from a friend of a friend.
Thanks again
Bill
Ant GOOD mechanic already HAS a 32mm socket! ;)
I did my Mazda 626 the same way..then a Subaru. When I did the Soob I
decided I'd better have one of these in my 'arsenal'...
BTW, the Mazda took NINE HOURS to take out and replace. I drove the thing
for a few days and then heard a familiar clicking noise...
The other side only took 4... ;)
