I had a noise coming from my rear end and was adamant it was the diff. I pulled it out got it checked and found nothing wrong. Put it back together noise went away and I thought good however it came back after week of driving. Checked bearing in hub found left one needed replacing so did that .Noise went away but then decided to come back after another week....starting to pull my hair out by now, noise got real bad real quick so after another hair pulling session replaced right rear bearing and checked left one again....incredibly it had packed it in as well. Two new bearings later problem solved What a head%uck that was

checked my centre diff bush, its cracked but no noticeable play (had on hoist at mates workshop) and Diff bolt was tight as....will replace with the Fulcrum BF bush once available. So I am thinking could be a bearing issue or CV......what a pain in the arse.

Hopefully its not a loose tooth in the diff!

I believe ive found the problem...

I have a ute, I think its the cv uni in the tail shaft, going to replace teh center bearing as well just to make sure. but you cant buy the cv uni joint from ford, only the repair kit

I've a very nasty knocking sound from the rear of my car.

Coasting or very lightly on the throttle.

At just under 2000rpm and/ or 60km/h does it all the time now.

Its gotta be the diff or CV shafts I assume but which is more likely?

Last November There was a loud bang from the car some where, I thought some one had run into us it was that loud!! Was that the CV endind itself? Been there ever since, but heres the thing, It used to knock slightly ON acceleration then went away. Nows it back louder and on coasting/ light throttle.

I've seen the shafts are around $300 but the Diff's?

Who recondtitons them in Sydney? I'm not replacing it.

What do you guys reckon? Anyway to check either?

Thanks on AUSTRALIA DAY!!!!!

Perfectly described I am having the exact same problem... I thought I was silly trying to explain it to ford the first time the guy had no idea what I was trying to say. I can go back to them now at the next service and say stick it right up ya its a common problem!!!
