Is it only me or do all of those new Focus suffer of excessive drive shaft shudder under load? Driven a 1.6 TDCi and a 1400 16V so far and both did it. Was worse on the Diseasel obviously...

I could imagine that a tuned 2.5 turbo would spit them out pretty quickly.

The chassis was designed for 4x4 so I would think so.
