"Hello.... I am usually on the Diesel forum, but thought this question might fit better here. I have 2 drives with A4 props. One makes a chatter knock sound like 2 small blocks of wood being quickly knocked together, while in neutral. When in gear, it diminishes considerably, but is still faint in the background sound of the engine. It clearly comes from the top of the drive. Its now off the boat and going in for repairs. It had a new intermediate housing put on and was shimmed because the big round hole was chewed badly at the top. The U joint was inspected and greased. It has only seen 20 hrs, 5 hrs in gear. Thank you for suggestions as to what should happen next at the Penta Dealer."
