hi all d90 200tdi conversion, i have a grinding noise again on the front diff,changed uj's on front prop noise went for a while now returned, had a look tonight and found that the diff flanged can be moved up and down about 3or 4mm and side to side, thinking that my prop could be out of balance tried that too and found that moved aswell about 3mm on the sleeve joint, is this normal for the prop to do this, removed prop and diff flange and i could push and pull out pinion shaft 5/6mm, up and down side to side aswell, something tells me this is not normal, so has anyone got a link on how to change pinion bearing and overhall diff, i only found oil seal change,any response would be gratefully received, cheer's defender dinky

hi,i had this a month ago seemed to be coming from front end, so i checked uj's on front props,and changed them still the same, took prop off drove with difflock noise went, so i thought it was the front diff so i changed that, noise came back after a few days, got under car again, and there seemed to be alot of play in out put shaft of t/box, so now looking to change roller bearing, but saying that there's oil coming out of front diff again so it might even be pinion bearings, hoping it's only oil seal, also had a little vibration around gear stick area, never rains but pour's defender dinky
