Had a bit of a grumble/rumble/noise from underneath creep in the past few weeks, just in higher revs or when accelerating form say 55mph towards 70, but i rarley rev it hard anyway and mostly cruise around 60 2100rpm sort of go, and would stop if you let of the gas
presumed it was the diff ? mate was getting it in this weekend to look at it, check/change the fluids etc
but left for work today, got on motorway, it started to get a bit louder/more of a rumble/vibrating, i was thinking this doesnt sound good..then clunk clang clunk break up sort of sound from underneath, i put in neutral went in to the hard shoulder and shat myself , it was ticking over fine, revved up ok
i had a look underneath with a torch, all looked ok from a quick look but was dark, and what do i do ,call breakdown, call work ,what
so...i sat there for a min, revved it, thought il see... and it movbed ok, i creeped along hard shoulder....and just carried on basicly... drove it 35 odd miles nervously, but it was SMOOTH !! totaly smooth, no rumble although took it easy and nervously, but it felt nicer than it has in a few weeks
so whats happened ????? what do i do next ???? is it safe to drive ??
has a diff exploded and its now not running on that diff ? (just a guess)
im 45 miles from home at work, and got work tomorrow
