Default Need Help!

My02V6has been making a noise when I'm going at slow speeds (10-20 mph). It sounds like a grinding sound, and it seems like its coming from the passenger side. Iwas wondering if anyone knows what it possibly could be, if it can be fixed, and how.

Haha, just test drove that gold 00' today and it had a similar problem.
Turns out the driveshaft is a little out of ballance on it causing a vibration that makes a grinding noise where no actual grinding is taken place. This may not be your case.

Another possibility is that it could be the throwout bearing if its a manual.

Best of luck.
