Hello.
I noticed last night while driving that there was suddenly some vibrations during gear changes, at first it felt like they where coming through the clutch pedal but i went for another drive just now and it feels and sounds like they are coming mostly from the back of the car but also a bit from the front.
If you let the clutch slip gently in 1st on a hill start it judders and vibrates just on the biting point. Same happens when you change in to 2nd but less and so on. Also in reverse gear if you slip the clutch it vibrates the same.
It feels like the clutch is uneven and its not biting properly.
Anyhow i got under the back of the car to see if everything was tight. All the mounts were tight apart from the rear diff mount. The bolt that goes through the center was not very tight. I tried to tighten it but the nut on the other end is just spinning. Wont come lose anymore but also wont tighten.
The nut and bolt in question are:
N 021 195 5 - M10 self locking
and
N 010 472 11 - M10 x 85mm
Also looks like the rear diff mount has been moving around a little in its casing as there are slight marks from where the silicone has rubbed the dirt away.
Could this be the problem to the vibrations? Or does it sound like its defiantly clutch related. This morning the pedal felt fine so I'm ruling out MC or SC for now.
Any help would be much appreciated.
