does the right hand (nearside) driveshaft have any play on the inner joint to ird?
:doh: yep that's what I meant. NEARSIDE
i'm working towards a diagnosis here![]()

yeah a bit of play before it seems to catch on nearside, so with this info are we thinking its a driveshaft issue???
That's the off sidenear side near the kerb! I'd be lookin at the ird! All the ****in around could've had it out checked and back in! If you've only just bought it with the problem it's quite possible the ird oil has been changed they've told him its buggered so he's sold it with nice fresh oil and no bits in it! That's my guess

lol yeah could of been out by now but if i take it out how would i tell if it is buggered?? i always thought that you would have signs on the gears, can it bugger with no wear signs on gears??
cheers
ok so we thinking its still a ird issue with the play from the nearside??? i thought the nearside went into the gearbox so wouldnt that be a auto box issue??Nope

only cos it's not the right answer![]()

Yes, excessive play in the driveshaft can cause the planetary gear thrust washers in the diff to wear
getting really confused now, nearside is nearest kerbIt is the offside nearest to the kerb that goes in the ird and this might have trashed the washers.
me too
the one that plugs into the ird
take it out and have a look at it!
Think you're looking at a partial or complete strip down cos at the minute you're going nowhere, you haven't really found much to go on, the IRD is the most likely suspect especially if you have play in the shaft!

That's the offside drive shaft but its the nearside joint of the offside driveshaft that goes into the offside of the IRD the nearside's near the kerb tho
