Has anyone ever had to change the mount which supports the propshaft just in front of the flexi joint in the middle?
I have quite a loud banging/knocking noise coming from under the handbrake area when there is no drive going through the system. It sounds like the mount has loads of play in it which is letting the propshaft move about quite a bit, or something that is really loose somewhere.
I took the big heatshield off to have a look yesterday. I take it there should be no play at all. I have a good 5mm movement when moving the prop to the left and right.
I thought maybe one of the bolts which holds the drive flanges in the gearbox had come loose but ive checked them and they are ok.
