Vcu price increase?? When??? ;)

Yes

Any evening is usually OK, just give us a call when you want to come

Noises are hard to trace, few things that could cause the bbbrrrr, vcu bearing, diff bearing, bird bearing, ird crown wheel and pinion spinning over the top of each other, spline gone on gearbox causing rear wheel drive only, rear diff crown wheel and pinion skipping over top of each other, prop...

A few things here to straighten out. Vcu should only ever get warm to the touch from the outside, if its any hotter then either the Vcu is too tight or tyres are mismatched in diameter. If a vcu is very cold after a good run then either its a duffer with no drive, there is no drive from IRD so...

Tipex test is a complete waste of time, proves nothing

Put car on axle stands on rear subframe, remove front mount, remove drivers side rear mount then replace front then drivers side, then fit passenger side last. Removing driver side rear mount allow diff to move enough to extract and insert front mount. Easy

If pinion is damaged you will need change crown wheel too. And to set the crown wheel and pinion up you need to remove the ird and strip it.

I'd guess banging is coming from rear diff bouncing on underside of car during the winding up. But could be vcu mounts or just exhaust.

The new tires are obviously smaller/larger than the old ones, this has caused the rotational sapped difference to increase to a point where the vcu is having to slip too much, its heats up more than it should and becomes tighter, causing drive train to wind up. This over heats the oil in the...

Front CV joint, most likely drivers side inner.

No need to mark anything or exactly align anything. Pop the shafts back on and bolt the vcu bearings up so they look about straight, no need for anything more.

Hello ;) Send us an email or give us a ring

Nice to meet you last night, hope the new freelander serves you well and behaves itself ;)

Post it to us and we will test bit free of charge, you just pay for postage

No idea really, other than none of them really seem to need them

No its the same. The only reason the vcu bearings have spacers is that we believe the ird is mounted at a slightly different angle, so the flange points down a bit, so the vcu is lowered to reduce the increased angle the uj and CV joint on the front prop have to articulate through. Well this is...

There are 2 different vcu's, the v6 one and the td4/L/k series one. They are the same "tightness" and operate in exactly the same fashion, the only difference is the v6 doesn't have a counter balance. I suppose there is also a 3rd one, which was a batch of odd ball ones that have different...

Neither, front prop CV joint where it joins ird unit. Check for rotational play. Also check all the uj's on prop for play. If you can, remove prop and see if noise stops

I'd put money on front prop CV joint
