57,000 miles.
Tune.and.DP.

Noticed today that it had a.shimmy when engaging clutch.
Drives perfectly fine but I still ran home and lifted it.
The front wheel has more play then I ever imagined a fwd lsd should.

Short vid of me able to spin the wheel before it grabs the gear.

Sooooo what did I break, or is it normal?

I don't really know much but maybe part of what ever gear it's in has broken off and it takes more spin or whatever till it catches a tooth on the gear. Whatever i'm saying. What gear were you in?

Hugger1975

I pulled it down into 4th.

It drives perfectly fine.
Someone saw it shimmy on takeoff.

Good point about gear.
They do have some play?

Before I posted I'm hearing
Clutch
Splines
Half shaft
Etc

I'm pretty sure that's normal, less play in a lower gear and what not. Now the shimmy on takeoff is probably the trailing control arm bushing that's known to go and I've seen a wheel shimmy like that because of it being bad.

Man I hope that's all it is.

I'll try a low gear tomm

Crazy thought.

Why will the hhr not stay in a hill in gear? Will roll back in any gear.

well at first I was like wtf. but then my buddies car did the same thing with LSD and I figured it was normal.

Im on the ZFR at 30 psi and my car has 94k miles almost, so I haven't had any issues.
