[ 370z ] Problem: rear noise "clank"

epluribusunom · 07-29-2014, 12:27 AM

I've got a bit of a clank when I go from Park to Reverse. After searching online, I'm convinced it's driveshaft slack. I have a couple of questions:

1. Is this something I should fix or address immediately?

2. If it is the driveshaft, is that something I can replace myself by jacking the car up one weekend?

If anyone has any other advice or suggestions I would love to hear them!
