Q for my Car knowledge friends!!

[nova_myth]

I apparently have a 'rear distribution', or something like that, problem with my car. Its a Honda CRV, all wheel drive. I'm taking it in on Monday but I worry what could be wrong. It makes a bumb,bumb,bumb noise when I make tight turns, the tighter the turn the harder it sound and vibration. I thought it was my front because it happens when I turn but the body shop where my car was repaired said its the rear.

Any idea?

o.o'

EDIT: Ehehe, Mouse nailed what the guy called it, the problem looks to be a rear distrubution thingy or something, or so said the shop dude.

Rear differential? That would make sense, but a rear distrubution does not.

Honda has a service bulletin on the rear differential for the CRV. Make sure you mention that when you take it to the shop.

Just in case it's helpful, years ago I had an all-wheel drive car. As I recall it had the same problem yours does, it was going to cost mucho to fix, more than I could afford, so my mechanic said he could just disable the rear wheel drive altogether. So if you can't get it covered under a recall maybe that'll be an option for you.
