Play in drivetrain?..

Post by gb-lude » Sat Feb 27, 2016 8:20 pm

Hi guys, been testdriving my turbo lude the last few days and I feel some sort of klonk ( don't know how else to explain it) when I put my foot down on the accelerator after backing off a bit. Checked my driveshafts and the seem ok.
Feels like my gears have play or something.
Any ideas?

I would jack the car up and gently turn each wheel back and forth and see if you can feel / hear any little bump or grinds. We found out one of my inner CV joints were away via this method ;)
