CV hop

[Poggy]

Hey peeps,
Some times when tryign to accelarate i get really bad cv hop, an quick fixes or causes? was thinking mabye its due to worn bushes or dead shocks?

[BeRad]

Please explain CV hop?

[tricky]

I'm assuming it is a FWD, juddering when you accelerate? Is it only when the wheels are turned, or does it do it in a straight line? Could be CV's, bushes, shocks, clutch... anything... Need more info really bro

[RP_St162]

in my experiences it is usually worn engine mount(s) or bad shock absorbers.

yeh like whole car bounces on accelation, judders really bad, in a straight line

[Kebin]

maybe its certain engine mount modifications

Or your clutch or fuel pump is having problems

axel tramp, I found it was improved on my Sportivo when I put the coilovers in, so stiffer suspension may help.

Better tyres can often help too.

... is this when the wheels aren't maintaining traction?

yeh, some times it willo just spin off its head other times it will axel tramp, like its half getting traction, semis should hopeflly fix it up
