Hello lovely Landy fanatics - New to the forum and wondering if anyone could help..... I've just bought a beautiful boshed up 90 - a 1993 200TDI with a rather impressive shot gun hole in the back, solid engine (so far so good) but I've noticed a slightly disconcerting wobble from about 45mph which, when depressing the clutch, disappears completely. I was wondering whether it was time to replace one of the prop UJs or whether it could possibly be the yokes on the prop - does anyone have any ideas or experience of such antics or is it just a case of have a wobble and see!

wobble and see - but if in doubt replace - £16 a pair - there is no arguement.
If one goes - its a lot more expensive (and dangerous)

try steering damper. and check wheel bearings aren't loose/worn. Have you tried laying under the 90 with it in nuetral and handbrake off, and checking for play in the props??
