Some Cadillac CT6 owners report experiencing a clunking sound in the drive shaft area, which may be linked to various issues such as worn brake pads, tires, or drivetrain components. This clunking noise can also indicate potential problems with the drive shaft or related parts, particularly if it occurs during acceleration or when shifting between reverse and drive. Additionally, some owners have noted that difficulty in selecting gears or harsh shifting may suggest underlying transmission issues. Worn U-joints, spider gears, and axle splines have been identified as common contributors to these clunking noises, often accompanied by vibrations while driving. It is recommended for owners experiencing such symptoms to seek a thorough inspection by a qualified mechanic to accurately diagnose and address the issue.
