It's the whole drive including ZF and driveshafts. I have superpros in the cradle and a truetrac fitted and still have a small amount of this lashback. Don't get me wrong it's a zillion times better than stock but you can still feel it(abate only just noticeable) when lifting off the throttle after getting up it and on light throttle lift off in the lower gears.

Exhaust loose?

Sound clip of clunk?

Indicator fluid?

Good to see other people have the same thing happening. I'll be getting superpro diff bushes hen I have money so that should fix it a little.

Ciaran if I remember I'll get a video on the way home from uni and upload it. But its definitely not the exhaust, I checked that plus its more of a shunt rather than metal hitting metal. Not sure what you mean by indicator fluid?

Its quite common to mis dianose this as low indicator fluid, when in fact its caused be overfilled indicators. When the indicators are operated excess fluid is forced out over the headlamps. Unfortunately the "dark" fluid (the fluid used when the indicators are off) spills down and causes the headlights to go off as well.

Most people think the fluid makes the indicators light up when it infact absorbs light and is responsible for the "off" portion of the indicators cycle.

Might sound a bit random but my clunk is gone!

I recently put some king springs, monroe gt sports, superpro diff bushes and replaced the rear muffler with a straight pipe and bam the clunk is no longer

Could be one of 2 things I imagine. First being that the muffler was actually hitting when I came off wot and with no muffler no problem. Or it was actually another one of the diff bush problems lol.

When I can afford it gonna give the diff and gearbox a fluid change and should make things smoother again

I can remember reading one of the car guide write ups on the G6ET which stated something about the shunt in driveline when stepping off gas.

In particular how it will feel weird to most.
