Default Drivetrain Problem

Hi all.

Just wanted to know what your thoughts are on this.

When i take my foot off the clutch and change gears there is knocking / clunking noise coming from driveline somewhere.

It also occurs if i back off then gently put my foot back on accelerator.

Does this sound like Universal joints to you?

it sounds like the driveline backlash/diff clunk that many au owners have talked about on here before...give this a try

After reading that link, i'm reasonably sure it my UV Joints, but the diff could use a service too. Anyone know how much the diff additive is from ford?
