Hi Guys,

Couple of problems I have noticed in the last few months I am looking for advise with,

1) When in reverse gear and go to reverse at slow speed there is a horrible noise I suspecting the input spline bearing as it is a bearing noise. The gearbox is also noisy when the car is running in neutral although this noise is more a rumbling sort of noise and is not as noisy and the noise dissapears when clutch is depressed.

Also while talking about the gearbox when in 5th when driving at 30MPH the car "Jumps" anything over this speed and it's fine and if i drop into forth while still at 30MPH it's fine.

2) When on hard to full steering lock the car "Jumps" again only when you go to move off if you turn the steering when stationary there is not a problem.

The Easiest way I can describe this it's like you have driven over a big stone.

As I say these problems have been there for a couple of months.

I am going to have a look tommorow but wondered if anyone else had this before.

Many thanks,

Martin.
