Default Not the u-joint

Same old thing like every one else. 98 disco le (95650) thougt the joint was shot . You know the synthoms thunk noise when shifting into reverse, on acceration, and slowing down. Suspenion guy said it might be the trans. Will a trans flush help with this banging. Thanks

Could also be the slop in the axle diffs. Have a rear end shop check it or you can put the tranny in park, jack up the rear end, and give your tire a spin by hand to see how much slop is in the system (make sure the drive shaft is not turning).

Also, if you have not had your tranny fluid replaced in a while, it would not hurt to replace the fluid and filter regardless.

Hold the BOAT, how many miles on your truck, how often do you service your tranny?
You don't have a tranny shop do a tune up on a Rover, if you expext it to be done right. That is like going to Midas for a brake job, you get a big bill and truely junk for parts.
e-mail me with your tele number and I'll call you.
