vibration problem
Range Rover Blues:
I lookes at a 200TDi without ABS today myself. Unfortunately the picture Wizard posted is the ABS type (Ithink also fitted to 300 TDI) so the bearing item 16 is the CV bush I was on about but there is another bush on the halfshaft (becasue the CV joint is not part of the drive member on non-ABs axles). Essentially it's a RRC axle you should have, so the CV bearings will be solid types. Check for excessive wear or collapse, CV failure and half shaft damage.
Check the diff for backlash too whilst you're under there.

What do you mean by backlash?

cheers so far guys.you are giving me sooo much to look for..... i have a new development today. it might be related but there again who knows :lol: :lol: :lol: ...while out having a gentle play i did notice a clonk ( very quite ) over a few bumps.....now it does sound like a bush starting to go :shock: .... this is the first time ive heard it.now all the shocks are new. so that takes them out of the way. so could this be the bush on the panard ???
seems like a coincedence :wink:
snezza mate..... the vibrations get really bad in mine if i put the boot down. i have not long come back from scotland ( a 2000+ mile round trip ) and had the vibration all the way. just at 60 it was livable so stuck to that :wink: . i cant say for definate that yours would be fine though ......will they recover you again if it goes???

Hang on, it vibrates worse under power? have you got a missfire? perhaps an air leak that only shows up under load, that could do it. Try it in both 5th and 4th just to be sure it's not got anything to do with the engine. I have a vibration on Blue that comes on at 50 ish but only in 5th, when the engine and propshaft speeds are similar. Only came on when I swapped the axles and engine so it's not the 'box, I think it's a little imbalance in both axle and a misfire that I havn't cured yet (valve going I think).
that's also why I asked about the backlash, if there is a lot of f4ree play in the diff input shaft or any sideways play at all.
Just remind me, you are sure it's not a UJ going aren't you? and have you considered the vibrationmay actualy be at the back end? (comes up through the propshaft and ofetn hard to distinguish between front/rear).
