No, it's not normal. I suspect that one of the constant velocity joints in
the shaft has lost it's lubrication and is binding under load. If that is
the case, get it checked ASAP. The last time I delt with this problem I
could not buy parts for the shaft I had to get the WHOLE SHAFT!!! But if
you get the joints lubed before it's too late you will save yourself about
$900.00.
