Problem 1: Mate check the bearings, you may have a seized one. My car had a total of 5 mins on it and i had 5 seized bearings. (must be super quality bearings from Kazakhstan).

Problem 2: The kit diff seals are shit there is no other way to beat around the bush, I have had success by using standard xrings but before i put them in i put a shit tin of grease on them then place them into there moldings they will still leak but it takes a bit longer for it to start. I have tryed P5 kyosho rings but they did not free up enough to be usable for me.
There are tresrey ones but they are P5 ones aswell but they may be a different compound and loosen up more? ANYONE BUELER BUELER !

Problem 3: Check the fitment of the pin that goes into that part ie does it sit straight, mine is a little off and does wobble a bit but does not affect the car at all. The little covers on the drive shaft piss them off, they are very annoying i use good thread lock on grub screw and then put heat shrink over that. ( I had a problem where the little pin did not have the cut out directly center of pin so it would work its way loose all the time even with the plastic cover on, solution was to get a new pin that had a correctly cut out bit on it no probs at all now).

I feel your pain man everyone said how good the workmanship is on these cars but mine did not have the same quality i guess mine was a friday afternoon car!

Hope this helps you.
