(EDIT) heres a link to the post with pics.. http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?sho...3727&st=25#




my teener was out of commission since about october until two weeks ago, i finally got the cv fixed and reshaped the shift rod and several other little things.

man, it was awesome, for two weeks the weather here was perfect, i had the top off, just cruising about. looking like a BAMF. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving-girl.gif)

but today, i pull out of my garage, drive about 3 blocks down my street, stop at the stop sign.

I start to go, when suddenly BAM!

the exact same thing happens.

the cv bolts shear off. car stops. and i go off.

so, ive probably got a bent cv joint. and a bent shift rod again.


can someone please explain. ive only got a 2.0. nothing fancy. this shouldnt be happening. unless its an undocumented feature of some sort.
