So yesterday when I turned on my car everything was running fine at idle. Then I noticed when I started to move it make some like chattering sound coming from like the driveshaft or maybe a little more in front. I don't know how to explain the sound its kinda like a squirrel? Oh N it does it SOMETIMES 1-2 only. I also think my car is vibrating a little tiny bit.

U-joints bad?

throw out bearing or pilot bearing would be my guess, but this kind of stuff (sounds) is impossible to diagnose through a computer screen.

Yeah I'd get a video clip of it but you'd be lucky to hear it. N maybe could be the input shaft. Another sound it kinda makes is like something is wrapped around the driveshaft N is smacking around. I already took a glance under there but I didn't see anything stuck.
