Hello, just wondered if anyone can help me with this problem!
drivetrain spec of my nova, f20box, quaife atb lsd, late spec astra gte hubs and driveshafts.
Heres the story: Went over a mini roundabout and it bumped a little, all of a sudden i have no drive and every gear makes a grinding sound when i lift the clutch up! Take a closer look and none of the driveshafts are moving and the grinding sounds like it coming from the diff/inner cv joint area!
My mate toes me home, all of a sudden the car starts driving again! I knew my passenger outer cv was on the way out so i changed it, got in the car and it drove fine.......for 500m!
I let of the accelerator, put it back down and all of a sudden its grinding again.
When i changed my outer cv joint i noticed the inner boot had gone so i changed the boot (without removing the shaft) and repacked it with grease.
From this explanation is it clear what the problem is? I dont really have a clue, thought i would ask before i go draining the gearbox and pulling the shaft to check the inner cv's.
Cheers people
