Hi all, I know that the website is called Just Commodores but I've got a question about a HZ Kingswood & I thought maybe someone can help me out.

Anyway I'm thinking about buying this HZ Kingswood, I've test drived it but when the gears change over ther is kind of a 'thump thump' noise. The huy selling the car told me that it was the heavy duty clutch. the only problem is the cars is a 3 speed AUTOMATIC.

Does anybody have any ideas of what it might be?
Are there any ex Kingswood owners out there that have had the same problem?

Any help would be appreciated.

lmao, heavy duty clutch eh?

Could be the tailshaft, could be the box, could be the diff. Where is the noise coming from?

Ahhhhh good old Kingswood auto, they don't call it a traumatic for nothing. It could be something as simple as the rear trans mount jumping when changing but me thinks it is more serious than that.
