Good idea, should be easy to check for. Although I have not heard of an SVX axle snapping before, I guess a FWD SVX would be the one to do it. Then, since it's an open diff, the engine would just rev like what he described.

The "ticking sound from the trans area" sounds like broken flex plate, but maybe a snapped axle would make a similar noise?
