Un-fortunately my drivetrain dumped on me yesterday morning on the way to work. So now it's back in the shop.
Anybody know on an '02 OBS if the front diff is open? rear diff open or lsd? center diff is viscous?
It dumped in 2nd while accelerating out of a turn, engine rev'd up, I depress Clutch, no clunking noises, pedal acted normal, finding gears was hard, coasted to a stop. Turned engine off. No fluid spilled, no metal shavings, no parts on road. Re-started & thought I'd found 1st, nothin. Engine still idles/revs normal, in what gears I can find. Loud clunk noises with wheel rotation while backing down off the tow truck. Still, cant work through gears like before(mechanic says he can find the gears, but they don't feel the same to me). New tranny/linkage time? Or could this be a front, center, or rear diff problem?
Mechanic said sounds maybe like rear ring gear is it but I don't know...http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/images/smilies/popcorn.gif
