Hi, I need some help please.
My old VS makes a horrible clunking noise (when hot mostly) when rolling at walking speed. (Reverse worse)
I have done the unis front and rear not too long ago.
Bought a new centre bearing (not yet installed) (old centre bearing does not seem too bad) ,but when I got under and twisted the tail-shaft the play and noise seems to be coming from the REAR OF THE GEARBOX? There is some play in the old diff, but don't think it is too bad.
I have done most jobs, big and small on lots of cars, but this one has got me stumped?
All the threads seem to talk about Unis and Diffs, is there anything that can be done (bearings etc.) rear of the gearbox, without removing/ repairing the gearbox.
I've spent lots on this car, and I'd love to get this sorted.
Any help would be great, thanks.
PS, the manual just goes into the gearbox strip down procedure.
