g'day all again,

I have another question for the knowledge base here...

Drive Shudder..!!!!!

whenever I take off from a standing / slow start while cornering (such as roundabouts or left / right turns) in my GU1 with TD42T, I get a shudder through the driveline.

it does not happen when pulling away in a straight line so don't think its the clutch...

Now I've replaced the diff oils, which lessened it, but less than 5,000kms later and it seems to be making a revival...

any ideas?

If you like I can go over it for you? Have seen a similar issue with another member on here and his rear diff, oil was changed a couple of times then it seem to disappear. We even pulled the whole centre out to inspect it and couldn't fault it. Sometimes the clutch packs get a little sticky and make said noise.

Get Matty around it will be cheap peace of mind mate...... worth his weight in gold!!!

As for the Diff oil I had to change mine a couple of times in 4 days to flush all the old crap out and may still do it again as I found my diff breather had come off and it sucked in water and mud.

The shudder going around corners ended up getting so violent ??
