Hi folks.
My vehicle has developed, what can be best described as, a shudder under load.
I suspect drive line rather wheels/tyres/balance etc.
Only started today and is more aggressive on inclines.
The vibration comes-up through the steering wheel and then the whole vehicle joins in.
I hope it's prop. shaft uni's or similar. Probably fronts?
Gear box shifts fine. Fluid levels are ok (but, aged). Motor runs sweetly.
Any ideas?

dose it get worse the faster you go, if the engine still runs fine when it hapends, could be engine mounts, could be the harmonic balencer has fallen off, or if its realy bad could be somthing around the hand brake or props, whats it like on run down
Check for broken engine mounts ....

I reckon the problem is around the handbrake area!Originally Posted by stig0000
Speed doesn't seem to matter, more load!
Check the harmonic b. by hand, seems ok!
Will check engine mounts! thanks!
Run down is smooth as the proverbial.
Definetly a load issue!
Hope it's props. and not transfer or gearbox!
Check the mounts first ... You don't want them to break

SupporterFront prop shaft, go check, quick, before it rips out your transfer case.
2003 D2a Auto TD5 good Landy gone
2015 D4 probably the most amazing yet, why get a RR?

DC joint uni's on front prop shaft? plenty of threads about this
AT REST
drive plate (if it's an auto)

Done! All seem ok. Thanks.Check the mounts first ... You don't want them to break

The shaft has about 5mm of rotational play. No end play and no lateral play.
But! The transfer case sounds like it has no oil in it and clunks when the prop. shaft is twisted to and fro. by hand.
I suspect you are onto something.
But what?
