I have a V5 type R with dccd and just want to check if this is normal as I feel a lot of play when going on or lifting off throttle, especially at low speed.
I've just changed diff oil so was having a good look under there and noticed that with both rear wheels on ground I can grab the propshaft and twist slightly without the driveshafts moving at all.
shouldn't it be solid?

 

You will get a bit of play due to the backlash on the ring and pinion in the diff. Excessive movement could point to worn parts.

 

No problem, I'm going to try compare with another to figure out if it's excessive.
