Hi all,

I seem to have developed a slight knock when accelerating.
It not a continuous 'knock knock knock knock', but just a small 'bump' when accelerating and same again on de-acceleration.

Any Ideas - I'm thinking prop shaft coupling??
Thanks.

gearbox mounts caused a slight knock on mine when going on and off the power. It wasnt a knock knock knock i.e. revolution related though?

Bushes or it could be the diff mount that cracked too.

Make sure its nothing simple like your drop links coming loose, as the top nut can undo itself and give you the same sort of noise, I spent hours doing all 3 diff bushes (have a look in the FAQ's as i did I guide when I did it) and I still had the knock, then tightened my near side drop link and it went away!
