    Problem

    Bloody thing!!!! right got my gear box sorted yesterday as it was really loose, and rattling alot. and i was getting a really bad rumbling wen accelerating, but not coasting, so thought it must of been my gear box with all these problems co-insiding. WRONG, gear box fine now, but still getting a BAD rumble when acclerating at higher speeds 50+

    Ive got a bad rumbling as well, like a shaft is fooked but only when i go left. Its actually my exhaust downpipe rubbing on the dogleg mount when i turn left. Its doin my head in, i just cant make the zorst more stable and it is fitted perfect

    i had that problem, it turned out it was because some garage in Scotland that u33db had used and fitted the manifold downpipe badly, somethin had snapped and instead of doing it properly, tried to fix it with a stack of washers
