I can hear a clinking/clunking sound when shifting the car from park to reverse and when tapping the brakes sometimes. Like something is sticking.

Hey HENCH567,

Does the car make more noise when in corners when you accelerate in a turn, if so then the CV axle is worn out and needs replacement, here is a video to let you know how to replace it,, its not the exact car but lets you know what you are in for

Best, Ken
