EVO 8 Rear drive shaft

Hi,

I have recently (two months) brought an EVO 8 260 from a garage and whilst driving happily along the motorway (yesterday) the drive shaft dropped out of the rear diff.  The car has full raliart service history and is completly standard as far as i am aware. It has only done 22000 miles and is a month over three years old (i.e out of warranty as far as I believe) is this a known problem? I know this is going to be very expensive to repair so any advice you guys could offer will be very well received.

Cheers,

Steve

I have never heard of that happening?  You should still be under warranty as long as the car is stock.
