I think it runs about $300 USD. They even issued a TSB but it was so late most 4th gens never got it.
I have the clunk on mine as well so I've been doing research lately. Gonna try greasing it and if that doesn't work I'll go for the new driveshaft.

HI
I thought it too, but he showed me the play in the front driveshaft. Its about 20-3- degrees he said. That's when I was taken aback. I did not expected it to be that costly repair.
I thought of replacing it with new driveshaft but what if it does not fix the problem, Is what I am thinking. And with the rear driveshaft will it correct the play/clunk in the front driveshaft? Or should I replace both?
Thanks
