Slaking on Throttle off

[Billman]

Hi, when i am i.e. in 3 gear and let the Throttle then i feel a slaking. What can it be? If i need a part, can you please give a partnumber. Car is RS2.

Greetings

do u mean slack in the drivetrain when lifting off the throttle? Does it only happen in 3rd or all gears? Sounds like one or all of the following:
Gearbox mounts
Snub mount
Read diff mounts
Prop centre bearing

If you replace the rubber mounts it should tighten everything up nicely reducing the driveline shunt/lash that you get on taking up drive and also when you lift off quickly

Cheers

On all gears when taking off throttle quick.

What is the part number for the mount of the gearbox?

thanks

Try Aelred or Corey, they both do uprated ones... I used the ones Aelred sells, good price and made a massive difference to the drive line...

I had this problem and i asked tom bout it this is wot he suggested to me it isnt completely cured but it helped

Where the snub mount is there is a adjustable bracket with 2x 17mm i think if u loosen then and push down hard on the bracket and tighten

diff mounts and powerflex rear diff bush
new prop bearing.

I have new *.* still having a bit of slack off, but then I release the throttle only on 7499 rpm all the time

I have another small question. The suspension strut mounts are the same for the front and the Back on the RS2? What is in the back?

[Dan_s2_coupe]

the snub mount is on the front of the engine above the aircon pump

Basicly u need 2 take the aux rad out the way if u have 1 then u can just get on the 2 17mms
