I don't f***ing believe this!

Going to my dads. Straight line not even pushing it and bang it's done a driveshaft. Exactly same as before!

Pretty lost with what to do with it. I've abandoned it and waiting for Dad to come and get me but we can replace a driveshaft only for it to go again?

God noes. Jeez I need a drink - good thing I'm on my way to a party lol

differential ah?! i think not dude.... the boys told ya the front end is very twisted....(hence your camber adjusters) your whole engine/gearbox/drive train is probably sitting very pi55ed, i know its hard....but sometimes its best to throw in the towel while your ahead. BRG mk1 180 for sale in chatham..... £2600! money well spent in my opinion....

That sucks! Really unlucky dude.

Sounds like something must be causing undue stress on the shaft or joints.

With all due respect Dan I personally think thats not true. Whilst yes the front end is bent the original driveshaft still lasted a year of hard driving, why its mullered now 3 in less than 10 miles on each I'm not sure.
