Hi all, Hope everybody had a good Christmas.
I need a wise and experienced user to answer a question for me, I have a nasty noise coming from the Gearbox/transfer box area under the floor of my LR discovery 1 TDI300, this noise occurs now and again for an estimated 1-3 second period and sounds like a drill chuck touching a static object when you're drilling something, and seems to stop when you de-accelerate, but this is an auto reaction to the noise, with me anyway. I was told it was the thrust bearing, but didn't change/stop when the clutch peddle is depressed, anyway since then I have changed the whole clutch all together and still the same noise. I suppose the next thing is the gearbox/transfer box? but hoping it's something less expensive/time consuming. I have checked the play in the main bearing, none and the spigot bearing, regreased.
Does anybody have any ideas? Please.
Thanks.
Dave
