My question is, there is a "clunk" noise when I let off the clutch some times from the rearend. The car doesn't have VLSD if the FAQ about the vehicle information on the firewall is correct. The sound isn't coming from the transmission (at least I can't feel the "thud" in the shifter) as far as I can tell and the clutch seems fine. It happens kinda random, and only when the clutch is released. I thought maybe it was the uni joint but it could be something different. I just wanted to see if some one on here might have had this problem before.

Wouldn't worry about it too much......I think that's just usual....try changing your diff. gear oil and it might smooth it out slightly. Mine has done it for God knows how long and I haven't had any other problems with it..

i really dont know the exact place or part that can cause that because it can be alot of things.
But to guess, it sounds like the tie rod end
