Got a drive train issue with my T-Jet and looking for some advice.
Coming home yesterday onto a roundabout, I started getting a rotational clunk that could be felt through steering and floor. Happens when in gear under throttle or when coasting with clutch engaged in any gear and has a sort of sprung feeling to it if that makes any sense? Noise / clunk is regular.
Jacked up front end, both wheels spin free, smoothly and quietly in neutral and in gear they spin the same but in opposite directions as would be expected and this is the case at any steering angle.
I started the car on stands and engaged first gear. As I brought the clutch up and the wheels began to turn there was sort of grinding noise and the engine sort of lurched a little on its mountings, this is what I was feeling on the road. Same in second gear but slightly worse.
No issue with engine, no prior issues relating to clutch or gearbox no visible issues that I could see. Driveshafts have little or no play and no sign of any oil or grease where it should not be.
Car has just hit 63,000 miles and passed MOT yesterday with no issues!
Anyone got any thoughts, I'm thinking possibly clutch plate or dmf?
Cheers
Ben
