Could it be the wheel?
There could be lots of alignment and suspension issues causing it, as well as drivetrain. Probably easiest to take it to a mitsi dealership and get them to sort it.
Thanks
I'll start with the wheel and through process of elimination i'm sure i'll find something.. will keep ya updated
Have done more testing on my car and its looking to be the 2 lage rubber bushes the hold the driveshaft in place (too much movment for my likeing. will replace and resume testing...
there is no bushes holding drive shafts in place, i think you are talking about cv boots. there should be a lot of lateral movement so when suspention is going up and down the drive shaft can move as well.
my rear diff decided to go bang just before christmas when i took it in they said that all the bolts had worked their merry way out then the oil poured out then it overheated and gave up trying to work sounded like someone with a hammer underneath the car, got it aa'ed back to Plymouth now have to wait for the damage report both to transmission and to wallet
non stop for me
this is the third diff i have gone through in 2 years so im wondering perhaps theres something else wrong with it?
320 odd Bhp and 356 lbs/ft of torques silver legnum vr4 needs a good clean and some tlc body work shabby due to poor driving mostly not me ggrrr women

SOOOO rude! hahahahahah maybe, do you think I should sell him?
To loose 3 differentials like this really sounds like there is something fundamentally wrong. Do the diffs come from or are built by the same place? Do they all have really crap oil in them or has someone misunderstood and put ATF in them? IMHO there are so very few people out there who really know how to not only build but correctly set up a diff that it would be safer (and so much cheaper) to buy a second hand unit and have a quality oil (Amsoil suprisingly/ unsuprisingly comes to mind here!!) put in. You should really then be able to forget it almost forever.
If you have a problem with getting Amsoil just contact me on 07949 944523 email don@performanceoilsltd.co.uk or web at http://www.performanceoilsltd.co.uk/
AMSOIL 'The First in Synthetics'
they were second hand diffs but the first time the cogs destroyed themselves after a oil and fluid/change at a mitsy garage the second time was when my transfer box went shortly after my prop shaft and this time it shook it self to death!
Just call me lucky
