Worn out driveshaft seals
Bent driveshaft guide on gearbox
Oval shaped gear shifter bush!!

Got the car back from Pacific Works today (thanks to Dan for the lift). As well as the work I'd asked for they also identified the following faults, and rectified them:

Think thats how most lists work when a cars involved, you get one bit done than you have to add another to the list :laugh: Was quite tempted to do one for mine but i'd need quite a few pages to start with :Chair:

Much quieter and smoother in the cabin too, now the engine's not moving around loads and knocking into things!Edit: I also dropped off a spare rocker cover and inlet manifold that I had lying around to get prepped and painted with VHT paint. Every attempt I've made at painting up car parts has failed so I'm just going to pay someone else to do it instead

And they're all the better kind of different Much quieter and smoother in the cabin too, now the engine's not moving around loads and knocking into things!
