hopefully that made sense i'm not 2 good at explaining things.
Thanks for your reply. This makes the most sense to me. It explains everything: noise only when changing directions and no noise when moving very slowly.I did intend to check on my drive shaft but did not have the time yet. I will make sure I check it out tomorrow.
