rollex Member 683 Member For: 10y 5m Gender: Male Location: Australia Posted 27/04/15 04:46 AM Share Posted 27/04/15 04:46 AM I have a bf mark 2 xr6 t with 320rwkw and a heavy duty clutch, when I disengage first the drive train clunks sometimes especially if I don't time it right and it is deaccelerating or accelerating still. Really annoying in car parks. Car has 190,000 with me new diff bushes and bushes in the rear end.Any ideas where to look? It got better when I did the bushes but it seems like the super heavy pressure plate just disconnects the clutch off too fast or something or there is slack in the drive train Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rollex Member 683 Member For: 10y 5m Gender: Male Location: Australia Posted 27/04/15 06:48 AM Author Share Posted 27/04/15 06:48 AM It has king/pedders springs unsure which one but cheapies that are about 1" lowered, it does camber wear on the inside of the tyres though. How difficult is changing the CVs ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The custard bushes, half shafts, diff hat(more so the single bush mounting than the actual hat) and to a degree the entire rear end design. Are sh*t. These cars don't break boxes(manuals anyway) and diff's. They munch bushes and twist drive shafts in half. Which would you rather deal with.Solid mount that sh*t and thrash it. Fark nvh. Shafts shouldn't bother you at your power level. Edited 27/04/15 10:09 AM by barnz 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Stripes.

rollex Member 683 Member For: 10y 5m Gender: Male Location: Australia Posted 28/04/15 01:26 AM Author Share Posted 28/04/15 01:26 AM It feels almost like when you pull a car out of gear without using the clutch, is this the same thing you guys are describing ?Also whilst on the drive train topic my 2nd gear syncro sucks balls when cold, what are they like when new, smooth or still feel like a heavy truck box?

Apparently they need to be babied when new for a bit or they can be hurt forever.Didn't you have issues with your clutch when it was put in? Not fully disengaging or something? Cause that's what it sounds like and I know that sound you are talking about when you pull it out without the clutch. Not the clunking we are on about. Not that severe. Engagement issue me thinks?
