Vehicle & Technical > Defender

im baffled for once

(1/4) > >>

here goes  :lol:
if i hold a steady speed in 4th gear, then hit the loud pedal, i get a horrable nasty vibration throughout the whole vehicle ( not through the steering wheel )

and the other thing that is puzzling me is if im plodding around in 3rd gear there is a slight tapping noise from up front ish area but it only happens when is up to operating temp ( it isnt engine cos i switched off and coasted its still there  :shock: )

now, it isnt wheel bearings, it isnt pads, it isnt uj's cos they all been changed, its not mud stuck on a wheel (its clean for a change  :lol: )

i did think it had something to do with the bent front propshaft  :roll:  ( dont ask me how ive done it cos i dont no meself  :lol: )
but when changing uj i took it for a spin to no avail

diff oils have been changed as per usual after everydunking and both were crystal clear

now when the t/b and main box oils were changed prior they aint been done yet
 
the transfere box was a bit on the thick side so was flushed through thoughly 3 times then fresh oil ( i have drained a spot off since and its clear )

the main box wasnt red it was white  :lol:  so drianed off and flushed through ect ect and is now clear

so  :lol:  cmon get your thinking caps on cos its annoying me, i feel like throwing another front diff at it and a new box and transfere box, but yano ill do all that and it wont cure it  :lol:

o its started to jump out of 2nd btw  :shock:

seconded. ours does it in 5th... if you sit at 30mph in 5th which it will just about do, its fine. if you nail it at 30 in 5th, it makes a foul noise until you either back it off or change down

extreme90:
no, its never done it before, all started since this sunday  :wink:
o and it doesnt do it in anyother gear just 4th
and the tapping is only in 3rd and only happens at normal op temp
it cant be the engine sending the land rover all over the place  :wink:
rob so is the td5 the same ?
