Prop shaft or Torque Convertor?

Hi Gents,

Thoughts please what do I look for?

So the D3 (07) has a horrible noise and dare not drive it just moving on the drive is a worry !
At first I thought it was the driveshaft as it had spat is grease out of the spilt boot, new driveshaft and top balljoint - changed the discs, pads and the N/S/F height sensor while I had her on the stands in the garage

It is a Rotational sound hence why I thought it was the Driveshaft - have checked both wheel bearings and all ok - appears to be from O/S front and only when in drive.

Any pointers appreciated

Hi Andrew,

Been underneath this afternoon and come to the conclusion it’s the O/S/F driveshaft - going to get it looked at next week up on a ramp.

Just moving very slowly the noise makes you think something is about to snap, there’s a click and then no noise, move in the opposite direction nothing a click and then the “oh sh*t” it’s going to break noise!
