So problem number one............

There is a knocking noise from the rear when I brake or put the car in reverse. The best way I can describe is like backlash from within rear driveline, a bit like a weight being pushed forwards then going backwards. Its not a harsh noise.

I have had this problem ever since I have owned the car.

It does not happen all the the time but I would like to get rid of this pesky issue.

Im thinking the rear diff is the culprit.

Anyone have any thoughts?

How olds the diff, could be getting play in it and you're hearing the slop as it goes from forward to reverse and back again

no idea Nick.

Probably as old as the car itself

I don't know about Cusco.

What I do know is that most 1.5 / 2 way jap diff tend to be a bit tough and clunky (friction plates)

With helical there is none of that and therefore is just smoother and runs quieter

Diffs are a bridge i'll have to cross at some point soon-ish i think.

You'll have to re get your exemption won't you?

Also, I have a hard decision to make. GC hinterland or Mt Nebo

Up tambo, down tambo, up Oreilleys... ah f**k this roadworks and the 1 lane road, back down Oreilleys, up tambo, down tambo...

Stopped in at Cedar creek on the way back down too, i think i'll have to bring boardies and a towel next time.

If I had today off I would come with you Pete

I'm not sure my car's good enough to be seen with yours (once you get it finished at least!)

probably one of the most underated mods you could do IMO.

Will do front one too after my bank account recovers.

Zac will be busy.

Well she is kinda finished. I'm even taking it with me to work FTM.

Just need to respray rear bar.

My car would be fine with yours or any other Nissan. Just no commodores

      There's probably an underlying issue with the A/C system too. I recently fixed mine, now it's fully control by the Haltech and car's factory HVAC controller  Have a squiz here:

      And by the way, I've also checked the ECU diagnostic numerous times and got a bad O2 sensor code and initially an Ignition Primary code, which is why I replaced the O2 sensor and all the ignition components (coil packa, plug and loom). No codes have been coming up lately despite the ongoing issue.

      Hey pber13, unfortunately still no luck. At this point the following has been done with little or no success: - Spark plugs replaced, gapped to 0.8mm - Splitfire coilpacks installed to replace originals - Replaced Ignition Coil/Coilpack harness with a new genuine nissan one - New fuel filter - Replaced AFM/MAF sensor - Injectors have been thoroughly cleaned with an online flush (without removing) - Upper engine and inlet decarbed - blew tons of black smoke out, cleared the carbon deposits from the top of the engine and exhaust.  - IACV removed and thoroughly cleaned with carburettor cleaner - O2 sensor replaced with new and genuine one -  Smoke test revealed no vacuum leaks - Healthy compression test of 160psi across all 6 cylinders Overall the car does run a lot smoother now, no backfires between gear shifts like it did originally... but the rough idle when warmed up is still there. It may not even be a misfire but simply a rough idle. Seems crazy to me that so many people have had this issue and seemingly no one has gotten to the bottom of it, or at least never bothered to post if they did! Hope you have more luck than I did pber13, I'm at a point now where I'm just going to try to ignore it unless it gets worse. Would love to fix it but I've genuinely run out of ideas of what it could be.
