I have a light shudder in the rear end of my XR6 (series 1) at around the 110k+ mark. Brad Garlic Ford say that it's probably the tail shaft slighltly out of balance but it's to fine for them to be able to do anything about it. I have also had the car lowered (herrod springs) which may have contributed to the problem. Appart from it being annoying on a trip, I'm concerened that the car will develop rattles/ wear etc quicker than it should. It could be my imagination, but but seems to be getting worse over time. Any suggestions would be appreciated

Had the same rumble when i had my 6T i would say your bearings are on the way out in your diff. Do you notice it more if a couple of people are in the car? And around the 110kph speed you do notice it more. Take the senior mechanic at the Ford Dealer for a run so he can hear it as well that's the only way to get them to hear and feel the problem.
