Hi guys, I'm new to these boards and I recently bought a 1988 Alfa Romeo Spider Veloce. I got a decent deal on it, the only problem is when I make turns at a speed above 20 mph a knocking sound comes from the drive shaft as if its vibrating. It also occurs when I downshift. Does any one know what this problem could be? Thanks.
The trans mount is one place to start but there is more!!
Just after the trans, there is a rubber donut called a Guibo that can go bad, then there is the center bearing and then finally some universal joints. You need to get the car up on a lift to inspect all of these parts and maybe listen to the rear axle bearings and the read diff. While up on the lift, change the oil in the trans to the proper type Redline NS gear oil. Change the rear diff oil too.
Thanks guys for the info guys, ill look into these
