I figured it was time to swap out the trans mount and while under there I took a good look around and I think I found the problem.



Flex disc. The rear flex disc looks perfect while front not so much. All 3 of the bolts that mount the disc to the trans look like the pictures. I'm considering parking her until the new disc get here. I've hear flex disc horrors and actually had the drive line drop out of my 300td the day after I bought it because the flexdisc bolts fell out.
