Hi guys I recently picked up above said car with the xp kit, couldn't be happier apart from what I now know to be a drivetrain issue..!

The noise isn't the typical of the m32 related woes that I've I've heard of e.g. whining and movement in gear, but is more a rotational 'thudding' bearing noise that is engine speed related and ceases once the clutch is dipped or it is out into neutral.

Just wondering if you guys had any ideas before I started paying for the diff/box to be torn apart? Thanks.
