my car runs great when it is cold but when it is up to the regular operating temp it runs like crap. at stop, it idles at about 65-7500 rpms and very choppy and hardly no take off power at all. when shifting from first into second it is very hard and jerks the car to the right (alignment is fine). this car also has a smell of overheating when the temp is fine ( i already replaced the thermostat). One more thing, when turning left or right i can hear a clicking noise, would that be a ball joint or a cv drive axle??

PLEASE HELP
WILLIAM

when you shift gears and it pulls to one side it could be bad tranny mounts. the overheating smell could be a heater core. they are located under the dash. and the clicking is more than likely a cv axel. are u mechanicly inclined if so there are a few simple ways to check the cv axel for cracks.
