Just watched your video that's moving quite alot looks like your haldex been replaced has it I'd be checking the bushes theres 2 on the back and also ones that bolt up through the bottom check the bolts on all because they should stop the movement let me know thanks scott

Cheers scott i had a look the only thing i see missing from the bush is the metal washer thing it seems to move more towards the front end will have another look in the.morning

is dont have this metal bit on my bottom two bushs this wouldnt effect if would it?

Hi guys my haldex had low oil causing it to shake bad but now it does not shake diff oil was ok but i still get a rumble from.back wheels will check the tyre balancing out tomorrow or could the leaking driveshaft be causing it.will keep you.posted

Hi buddy I'd change the bushes also the washer does need to be there to give the bolt structure I'd be incline to change them have you checked the rear two that are facing the rear of the car

[Yaza01]

Hi yes checked the rear two they are fine going to take wheels off and have a good poke around, mainly issue is when the torque kicks in thats when the vibration kicks in cheers

Scott behind that seal is there a bearing?? Today i drove it around trying different scenarios what it seems is when i apply throttle to take off and turn at a junction it makes a sound like driveshaft is not seated properly in the diff

[Scott]

No theres no bearing from what I can remember but it does need to be the right spot to push the driveshaft all the way in I've dug the receipt out for the seal that one that you have could be the wrong one as its yellow when I first ordered them they tried to sale me the gearbox seals because they thought there the same but there not

[Scott]

heres one of the rear diff

[Scott]

The two rear bolts that ho through are a nightmare to get in correct me and my mate both do it one wiggling the diff other putting bolt through check them because the way that's moving if like the bolts ain't done up properly check there not cross threaded or feel like there in but are not that movement would cause vibration through the prop shaft I'm almost certain that's your problem mate

[Scott]

Check your subframe for any broken parts

[Yaza01]

Cheers scott going to order a seal and tackle it my self whats the best way to get it out cheers

[Yaza01]

Hi Scott is it number 19 on the diff picture cheers

[Scott]

I removed the diff only but if I did it again I'd remove the rear subframe the choice yours but I took rear wheels off then undone all the suspension parts needed to undo to be able to remove the rear diff undo the prop shaft cc should just come away then undo 4 bolts to release the diff theres a couple of electrical connections to undo but if you look on the thread I followed gives you a bit more in sight good luck mate let me know how you get on
