Re: Front diferential and or axle/tire problems
Yes, if I stop the drivers tire it gives power to the passenger side, at which point you can faintly feel the "thump" in the pass side

Re: Front diferential and or axle/tire problems
Took the car back to mechanic, told him I wanted him to diagnose it. He called me two hours later to explain he had looked over everything and the only thing it could be is that pass cv axle, so he changed it, and once again no difference, still does it. Next I plan on putting it on stands and runni...

Re: Front diferential and or axle/tire problems
right I understand that, so lifting it and driving it won't tell me anything about the cv axle, that and the added danger and grease everywhere, I think I may be better off trying to diagnose a different way...maybe not though, I may have to do it

Re: Front diferential and or axle/tire problems
ok so jacking it up and running it off ground OR having a shop lift it and run it for that matter is not a good idea, makes sense now.

Re: Front diferential and or axle/tire problems
Yes it was the one on the passenger side that had the atf as well as the driver side. The lube plays said it looked "ok" but was definitely tranny fluid not gear lube like it was suppose to be. They said it looked like it had a recent "bad lube job". I think by looking at the tir...

Just bought a cheap subaru, needing some help with it. 93 2.2 NT A/T AWD wagon, paid $800 has 166K (was "supposedly" rebuilt motor and tranny 20K ago) When I bought it the guy said it needed tires badly and drove very messed up due to this. I arrived and all tires had good tread, one (rear...
