Got under my S3 on ramps today for techie to have a nose round.
He found rear prop shaft coupling is on the way out, rubber is beginning to break up.
Ordered one from GSF, not cheap at over 200 quid. Apparently the coupling needs exhaust off to access so a few hours labour.Any comments on this before I get this done?
Also a top mount needs changing as knocks on lock. Parts about 15 quid.
Could not see an earth wire for the Haldex, as it's a 2000 model that's probably the way it's built. Electrical connector looks in good condition. He said I would know if it wasn't working but will get oil and filter changed to be on the safe side.
Could change rear disks in time otherwise looks ok.
