Sounds like it could be the diff, or the torque converter in the gearbox... It sounds like a garage job either way i,m afraid... :cry:

Yes sounds like it to me get a good mechanic to check it out ASAP just to be on the safe side. Let us all know the outcome please.

Before you start shelling out daft money, it's worth changing the oil in front and rear diffs and your ATF just to exclude these as causes. All necessary instructions are on the forum. It made a world of difference to the way mine drives.
