Car Forum / Ford / Ford Falcon / July 2004AU XR6 Diff noise
HI Guys... Have an AU1 XR6 VCT Manual, with 60,000Km on the clock. Bought recently. At low revs/speed i.e. pulling out of a parking place/reversing with the clutch not fully engaged, there is an intermittent knock/clunk from the Diff, and a slight clutch shudder, unless revs are above 1500. Had an EL XR6 prior to this, with 125000 on the clock when sold, and, although there was a slight shudder, the Diff clunk was not nearly so obvious. Clutch plate/Pressure plate was replaced @ 55,000Km Anything I should look out for, or is this par for the course? Other than this, car runs perfectly. Many thanks Dave Quail check the uni joints and ext housing of the box. > HI Guys... > [quoted text clipped - 16 lines] > > Dave Quail What Jimbuki said - although the extention housing bush in the T5 manual doesn't wear like the autos do. Check the engine mounts too.

Good luck Peter > HI Guys... > [quoted text clipped - 16 lines] > > Dave Quail Thanks a lot guys... Will check this out...

Had a similar problem with an EF XR6 with LSD, added a friciton modifier (from Redline, but can't remember its name) to the diff oil and all was solved.
