My xr3i has a knocking noise from the engine when coasting or when your not on the accelerater but fine when braking or with your foot down!

I think its the driveshafts as both have a little bit of play in them, will it be okay to drive to Ford Fair and back 250 miles??

 

if its a worn joint then you may get away with it for a while. i've had a vibration for 6months + that turned out to be nackered drive shafts and Sandy off "The Garage" had a nackered nocking drive shaft for ages. when he eventually took it appart the tripod bearings all fell apart

just drive it jently

 

Aslong as it gets me 2 Ford Fair and back i don't care what happens after that haha!!

 

have you got AA if so who cares.... just drive it!

 

No AA or breakdown recovery good old trusty tow rope and two mates in there cars....I should be fine!!

 

youll be fine mate, you cant use a rope on motorway though... it could be a long way home!

Might See you there tommorow. Unless the M5 breaks down that is.
