Hi Everyone,
It's been a long time since been on, but until now I've had no problems at all.
Just a quick background to my problem;
A couple of weeks ago I joined the motorway and had to speed up to join the lane, as I sped up the gearbox kicked down a gear and then I heard and felt a vibration throughout the vehicle.
So after a visit to the garage we agreed that the rear diff was noisey and also a rear wheel bearing was bad as well.
I have had the diff and hub replaced but still seem to have this vibration and noise when driving.
The vibration and noise seems to be at 2800 to 3200 rpm and now I have discovered it happens when stopped and in neutral when revved to 3000rpm.
I'm now not 100% sure what it is but is it possible it could be the flywheel and flange plate or does anyone have any other ideas what it might be? I don't fancy dropping the gearbox only to find it's not the problem :suspicious:
The car is a P38 2002 4.6 (thor engine) Vogue.
Thanks in advance.
