Default Grinding from Rear end 05 Crossfire Auto

Hello everyone,

im have an issue with my 2005 Crossfire Limited. It’s an automatic with many issues lol. Bought it as a project.

right now it’s making a grinding noise and feeling from the rear under moderate to heavy acceleration. It seems to be only in gear 1. After that and the car shifts, the noise and feeling go away.

Can anyone help me diagnose this problem?

Could be the center driveshaft bearing.

about $60 if you DIY : https://www.fcpeuro.com/products/mer...n-1704100081kt
reason for failure ? Wear, it's a bearing

a 15 second investment in time on the internet will yield several results

type in center drive shaft bearing.

Thank you everyone. So looks like it’s the Carrier Bearing. I’m replacing that this week. I appreciate all your help

Be sure you search every thing on replacing this bearing/ center bearing holder, and make sure your drive shaft go back together with the balance notches lined up.
