    Right well my car is knocking every time the wheels rotate it gets faster the louder I go lol

    Well in the below picture where I have circled has some movement in ie i can hold the bar and move it 2-3mm and hear it knocking on something is this the likely cause on my other shaft only have maybe 0.5mm movement?

    This is the exact same as my VTR. Does it seem to happen more when you turn left than right? mine does. Took it to a garage today for a test drive, they said they are fucked. Think its a loose bearing or something. Looking at £200 fitted with gearbox oil aswell...

    If you get a new driveshaft, some places buy back your old ones off you to refurb them so you get a bit of money back
