my dad fitted a new set of poly bushes on the rear subframe.

a short while later he got a knock from the rear on the overrun [ car is a auto]


driveshaft, rear axle and prop shaft have got slight wear.

has anyone experiant the same problems with these bushes

if the diff needs replacing, could he fit a diff from another e30, or is the 323 auto unique

It could be play in the drivetrain but that would give a bit of a kangaroo feel when coasting along on idle. That or the diff bush is now taking all the play now you've stiffen'd the other two.
There is NO nucleus.
