2001 jetta. 3 weeks ago I noticed my car was very noisy. I thought perhaps an exhaust leak, because it's loud. I am a out due for oil change, figured I'd have it checked at the time.
Realized yesterday when I turned wheel to left, the noise stopped. Even slight turn (say going from 12 oclock to 11:55).
Called for appointment....I have 2 brothers hundreds of miles away. One (mechanic) says sounds like bearing. Other (former jetta owner) says cv joint.
My question is, how do I know if it's safe to drive 40 miles to mechanic?
