Dull metalic clunk
When i move off nad find the biting point etc there is a glunk coming from the rear. This also happens when you let off the acelerator briefy to slow down and then go back on the gas.
Its most noticable when in traffic when your stopping and going all the time.
Could something be loose or is there a normal ammount of play in the diff like on some old tractors?
This is on a 98 type r if that makes any difference.

It could be something loose, more likely a diff mounting bush, the first ones to check are the mountings at either end of the 'T-bar' in front off the diff that bolt to the body just in front of the rear wheels inboard of the outer sill.

Hi fella,
I have a similar sound with mine (same age/model). I have been informed it is simply the diff taking up the drive and is in fact nothing wrong.
If you find it is something, can you please let me know?
All the best

Sounds like rear diff bushings for sure, I had the same exact sounds, from the rear, when gettin on or off the accel switched my bushes and no more sound oh and you cant tell by looking you will have to take the bushings out or just replace em
