just totally worn out. just had it on a lift to diagnose a tod problem, unless you absolutely baby the throttle from a stop my vx acts like its slipping in the rear end (no vehicle movement) and shows torque being transferred to the front then slams back into the rear end again. No problems once you are at speed. (20mph and above)

Figured trans fluid, diff fluid, u joints or something. Good levels and fluid. So we started checking for play and spotted the mount. Not sure if its the cause but it needs to be fixed before we can start point fingers somewhere else.

That is of course I've missed something while searching and looking in relevant threads?

thanks littlebeast!
