Hello guys/gals!

My scoob has developed a strange clicking sound when I'm going on/off on the power...something has developed a little bit of play.

Where should one look...driveshafts?

It just kinda clicks when I get it moving, either forwards or backwards...nothing while cornering.

Could it be a coupling in the main driveshaft somewhere?

A click as you reverse, then another when you go forward again often indicates play in a splined shaft.

I'll have the fellas at the garage have a look at it.
If it breaks - it breaks.

Cheers guys!
