I have a 1965 912 with 5 speed transmission.
When I take off in first gear there is a single mild clunk noise when the torque comes on. If I pull away very gently at minimum revs it doesn't happen. All the engine mounts and transmission mounts are new. I have checked to see if the transmission is hitting the body where it goes through the body to the shift linkage but no signs of that. The CV joints were recently inspected and repacked with grease. The transmission is a reconditioned unit with about 5000 km use. I'm planning a 3000 km trip to TAS in two weeks and don't want serious problems to develop while away.
Any ideas on what might be the cause?
