Hiya everyone, im new here so please be kind 
My wifes 1.9td fiat punto y reg started making a juddering noise when turning right. It did get really bad, then i changed the whole drivers side driveshaft, that calmed the noise down. So now its just like a light juddering when turning right. Could it be the left driveshaft aswell?
also i did notice after taken her out, the left hand side wheel area did smell abit like clutch burn and felt alot warmer than the drivers side.
The noise only seems to happen when its in gear (wife wasnt too sure) and not coasting. So i tried it, coasted it at around 40mph round a right corner and there didnt seem to be a noise, but i couldnt really tell...
Any ideas?
(sorry if this is in the wrong place :-/)

Forgot to mention, i dont know if this has anything to do with it, but i have a feeling the 2nd gear synchro is a bit massed, its grinds going into second unless at low revs or speed. And the reverse doesnt like to stay in reverse, it wont "pop in"...
