After a post a couple of weeks ago and going to have geometry settings done my car has been bang on until today, its like the brakes are binding heavily, so gets the car home and drove it backwards and forwards, now when you drive backwards the rear wheels go outwards (more or less straight), drive forwards and the wheels move inward (toe in), the main dealer didnt know this when setting but he said the centre diffs gone.
Any help on this would be appreciated.
When I had settings done it drove better and seemed to free off for a week or so.

when the centre diff goes it makes the car crab as you go around corners. try driving it slowly around in circles if the diff has gone it will get wind up and will virtually stop. if it does you will need a new diff.

Cheers.
Went round the block, the car juddered and jumped round corners, jacked up the rear, and the nearside rear wheel spun a little, also when having the geometry settings done the mechanic said he disconnected the propshaft (I presume from the rear diff) and the propshaft wouldnt turn which he said this is a problem with the centre diff, is this true. Does this sound still like centre diff.

I dont want to sound like i'm questioning his expertise but just to save time and money.
