        It could be the cv's at each end of the prop, try holding the flange on the end of the g/box and then twisting the prop to see if there is any play, do the same with the rear diff.

          It could be a worn rear diff. When we were at the garage meet last year ross' car had alot of play in the prop compared to other S2's.

                      What do you mean centre mount slightly low??

                      Is there a silver insulating metal sheet on the underside of your car that is above the exhaust?? It shields the floor from the heat of the exhaust......

                          Dan you need to look at 2 things here...

                          The universal maybe shot and deflecting all over God's creation down there. Since the prop is metal, it may
                          transfer sound up & down the shaft. If that has happened all ready then the center bearing may be
                          shot too. I'd have a real hard look at the universal.

                              You need to remove this metal insulating sheet to get a proper look at the centre bearing iirc...
