Inside the Rear End is Shredded!
Change your rear diff fluid.

Do you mean the rear differential?

Sooo what conditions do you drift in?
What mods? |
The OP is from the south and I'm guessing is over 50 years old ....;)
Yes, "rear end" OR "rear-end" ...... :D humfrz - from SOUTHERN Ohio |
Mmmmm... some wear is normal on a new car as the gears have to wear in. Pics would have been more helpful :)

MY REAR END BLEW AN O RING - OH MY GOD !
What to do !
Them torpedos work good (not the cream [no penetration]). Preporation H is over hyped - Oil change after break in is not. Routine fluid replacement is healthy for all cars. Sudden unexplained metal cancer is dubious. I get suspicious about mods and trolls making wierd posts to generate forum activity. Just because I'm paranoid doesn't mean there isn't a conspiracy ! Gotta change my diff oil again ! and again! and again ! and again ! - Oh never mind think I'll have more beer instead ---------------------- hic brrrrp :cheers: |
What exactly did it sound like? I might be having this issue...
|
Uh, countless threads showing people changing their diff fluid show metal shavings on the drain plug. It happens during break in.
/confused |
It's not just the ring and pinion that are wearing during break in but also the internal gears of the Torsen differential.
http://cdn.makeagif.com/media/12-14-2013/B6dJRF.gif The first fluid change will definitely have a large amount of material with following changes having significantly less. |
Changed my fluid @6K miles and it was just like you described. Changed it again @30K miles and it was a lot cleaner. Coming up on 40K miles and no problems.
|
It's quite normal to have metalic paste and shavings on the mag drain plug for the diff when new. Gears, clutches breaking in, that's when most of the wear occurs..
But it seems you have an issue going on if u have noise and 30k+ miles |
