[QUOTE="slow-lane-Matt, post: 489071, member: 19329"] I had what may be a similar problem - at certain speeds there was a heavy clanking from somewhere indiscernible at the back. It turned out to be one of the circlips on on of the drive shafts (CV joints) wasn't there. The drive shafts should move in/out about 5mm, without the circlip they moved about 30/40mm - giving the drive shaft too much play - and making a load clanking when under load - mainly when starting to decelerate through the gears. (I think I had to jack the back up to feel the extra play) [/QUOTE]
