Subject:      88 TD Syncro caravelle grinding sound when backing off
Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed

My van is making a wicked grinding sound when I back off.The sound
dissapears as soon as I hit the gas or drive uphill.It doesn`t make any
difference whether I am coasting in neutral,in gear with my foot on the
clutch or which gear I am in.I have just bought the van so I dont really
know how long the problem has been around.When I bought the van the exhaust
was very loose and was vibrating on the underbody,I thought that this may be
the cause of the noise but I have repaired that and now all I can hear is
this dam grinding sound .
Thanks in advance for any help.
Andy Williams
