    Unhappy Tdi disco no drive...

    Hi all

    Today when mum was driving to work, the disco lost all drive.
    She was taking off from the side of the road on a slight hill when it just went "clunk" and no go...

    We got it home this arvo and had a look at it, when the engine is running and the gearbox is in gear, slowly letting the clutch out a rattling noise seems to be comng from the g'box
    To me it sounds like a broken main shaft or something. it's a 92 200tdi that we have converted to an r380 box.

    Any thoughts on what it might be?

    Thanks in advance...CHEERS TIM.

    Just a quick thought check the transfer has not jumped out. I have seen it happen before.

    Stick in 4th (1:1 straight through the g'box), engage diff lock and see what happens.

    If still no drive, chances are that the output shaft is FUBAR.

    If no drive in 4th, to check output shaft / tcase input gear : rattle off the PTO cover and inspect. The gear that is looking at you is the TCase input gear, the shaft broached into it is the R380 output shaft... The splines if not well lubricated fret wear and lead to stripping of the splines resulting in no drive.

    Just wondering what the outcome of this was? I had a very similar thing happen to me today.

    Turned out to be a broken main shaft
    Dad has rebuilt another R380 and we fitted it to the disco and all is good

    Sorry to hear Dannie. Is yours an LT77S?
