Driveline Drag
Driveline drag ? If I just have the front, center and rear sections on the car they spin freely once I hook up the belts on I start getting drag. Front not so bad but when I attach the rear belt the driveline drag (doesn't free wheel) get worse. This is without the front and rear shafts attached. T3, belts are not over tightened, all 6 bearings have been cleaned and oiled (twice). Any ideas why the driveline is dragging or is this normal ??

I just ordered the 2016 kit after owning my 2015 kit for a couple weeks, have you guys noticed a clear difference between white belts and the kit ones?
#694
The biggest difference I've found with the white belts is a lot less build up of junk in the pullies and on the belts themselves compared to the stock ones.

Could you post your setup so we can see it and make some suggestions? I think I would suggest going back to 2.5 on the rear, but it depends on how much chassis roll you have. With how heavy VTA cars have to be, I'd think 2.3 is too soft and causing some oversteer. Also it is extremely important to make sure the tires are dry before you put the car down. I mean make sure you really put effort into getting all the excess compound out from between the treads.

I've found that I have some play in the 20T fixed pulley. It appears to be on both halves, and the play is where the pulley mates to the pin. My pulley isn't very old, and I have rotated it 90 degrees so that the pin slips into the previously unused grooves and it is better, but still has some slop. Is this normal? I know other cars have a different design and do not have any slop.

Being designed this way, I bet every t4 owner is experiencing the same thing.

Hi, I have a 2016 T4 and try to install the aluminum steering Arm but after installed, the steering ball joint will hit the belt ? So I took it out and try to see what's the difference of the plastic arm, it seem the plastic arm is sit more higher than the aluminum arm. Do you guys have this problem ? Did you guys just leave it like this or how can it be fix . Thx
