Car starts but when accelerating it makes a loud tumbling noise. It takes a while to just get up to the speed limit of twenty itself. My car also pulls to the left just going over small bumps on the road. Not sure what to do. I am trying to do process of elimination but nothing seems to be working.

I would think it would be a drive axle CV joint that is going bad which would explain the noise and the pull.

Check to see if any boots are torn and if so here is a guide that will help you get the axle replaced which you can get on Amazon.

and to lift the car up safely.

Please let us know what happens.

Cheers, Ken
