My bus (Whitestar 2.1 Petrol Manual) has started to sort of lock up when in reverse. What I mean is that when reversing, after a few yards it feels as though something is trying to stop it moving. Doesnt happen all the time, probably 1 in every 10 or so.
Any idea's whether this is a common problem, or could lead to something terminal?
Had all the brakes off and nothing in there is binding so its either axles or box?
Oh, the bus is lowered 60mm too, if that makes a difference.
Cheers,
Chris.
Transmission woes.

Cris, do you mean locking up dead hard like a total mechanical lock-up, or doe you mean like a heavy dragging sensation ?
@ Simon, could you give us a paragraph about LSD on these vans - I didn't realize any of them had LSD's !

More a heavy dragging, knock it out of gear and put it back in and its fine again.
