BreakMyWindow 1870 Report post Posted April 2, 2007 coast the car in neutral at around 50 - 70 kmh if u hear a whine coming from the back, it would indicate your diff pinion/crown gears are worn. Have you tryed replacing the fluid? does it make whining/rattling noises when turning sharp corners ? I'd say older cars tend to be a bit noisier when they are cold. In saying that tho, are you sure the whinning is not coming from the passenger's seats when your not driving alone ? could be two problems here lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

325_driver 422 Report post Posted April 3, 2007 Is the whine there when you are not moving? it starts whining (when cold) when i start moving. mite pay to replace diff fluid tried throtlling round corners at all soughts of speeds. but the only problems im having is when im going slow in first gear. if im going like 20 in first and plan the foot no problems but it seems anywhere below that speed too much power will put it into a bunny hop ? so no gears gone? just the diff on the way out ? what sought of price am i looking at ? does any one have a solution ? maybe i should invest in my lsd now ? cheers guys Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
