I have a bit of a problem.

We have this strange vibration that comes through the accel pedal at 3000rpm. It feels like a harmonic vibration. The engine feels a little rough at those rpm when just revving free too.

So I looked under the car today and see I have a oil leak. Its diff oil I think. I stinks! Im pretty sure my front diff is leaking and also a cv boot is leaking.

Here are some pics.

Is this an easy fix?

just blown a seal in the RHS, get a new seal + a support bush from bruce & some free wheeling hubs to stop the CV's from spinning all the time

Thanks for the reply.

Is that the grey thing in the pic above? Easy to pull the shaft out? There a diy around?

Also where do you get free wheeling hubs from?

FWH's off a 1.6 vitara

the seal is in the diff, you'll need to remove the CV & it's a bit of a mission... plenty of threads on how to pull a CV on here.

Any idea what the strange vibration at 3000rpm would be through the accel pedal?

So you just buy the free wheel hubs from a 1.6 vitara? Sweet. Whats a good price?

get the bolts & cone washers that hold the FWH on too.

NFI on the vibration, could be 11ty billion things that are impossible to diagnose from a screen a keyboard. :wink:
