Hi
I have a 2000 gu dx 4.2td ute ive only recently got the car. It drives fine in 2wd i took it to the beach about 3 weeks ago and when driving through the very soft sand sounds like from the rear you will hear a sorta bang sounds similar to a rock being smashed i think when this happnes the whole rear of the car gets unseattled and it surges forward. But being in the soft sand under the tide line i want going to stop to check. i went again last weekend forgot about the noise went for about 2 hours in low range up some tracks was fine then came back though soft sand did it again like last time. ive now had sunrasias fitted and they have for a more woren tyre on one side at the back then the other i tried 4wd on gravel and it makes the noise a fair bit but only surges the car forwards.
Can any one help me im getting worried it might fail on me when i need it to get me out of trouble.
Thank you
