Hello

Last Friday I went to a bar near the sea. When coming back from there I pushed the car really hard for something like 20 Km of highway. When i took the foot out of the trothle i noticed a strange noise below the car. I thought that it was the gearbox. I took the car to my garage and saturday morning I noticed that the diff was dry (no oil on it). I crossed my fingers and filled it with oil again but now it is doing some clinking noises.

I think that the the pinion gear must weared out, don't you think?

Is it possible to reduce the gap so the noise can be reduced/eliminated?

The diff only does that noise when the engine torque is in balance with the wheels torque. Or, in other words, only when the car isn't acelerating/deacelerating.

May be best thing to do is get another diff from the junkyard and fix it all?

Help

Thank you

Ricardo
