Ok so u guys may remember me posting up needing some rims for my Tc. Well I got the rims. thing is when I had my stock rims i did a last min lane change and ran over a stupid curb thingy they had in between two freeways. so yeah... my car probably flew a lil. that how my rims ended up being jacked up. now my question is now i hear some noises and it has a hard idol in drive. I don't have money to take it to a shop for a full inspection. What can be some problems and how do i know what problem is what. ie like if i broke the tie rods, axel etc. I got AIM aznpyro831. or just PM me Really appreciate all the help. thanks

the weird noise could be a lot of things - most likely, it's a bulge in the tire created from the impact. the hard idle...I have no clue sounds irrelevant to the accident.

Can't be the tires i had to replace the tires and rims. Iono maybe Im trippin bout the hard idol i normally have my music blastin i cant really hear much but I've been drivin with my music down lately listening to my car. makin sure its not jacked up I just hope its not gunna cost me alot to repair. Im still shoppin around to find a place that can take a look at my car. that can do a good job for a nice low price...

Do you know what a car sounds like if like the tie rods or axle is broke may sound like?

We can't diagnose it just by your explanation. Maybe try to make a friend who knows cars?

You said you ran over the median? That's bound to mess with your suspension... Does the car drive funny? does it pull to one side? Vibrations at higher speed?

What do you mean by "harder idle in drive?" Do you have a Check Engine Light on?

Yeah ran over the median pretty fast. not too sure i haven't driven it like i normally do, fast. it did vibrate at 60-65 mph till i got new rims. but as far as pulling to one side no really, i know i need to realine. but no check engine light.

as far as hard idol its when im at the stop light i can feel something different. it can be that im trippin tho. i really don't know ne one from the cali (bay area) that knows much bout cars. lost all my connections when i moved out of state n back.

It could be something suspension related... it could just be in your head...

You really do need to get it checked out.
