Hi guys,
I stupidly neglected doing my diff oil for a long time and am getting some pretty bad noises which I think are diff related (2012 FG Turbo Ute 6 speed manual by the way 205,000kms).
I first thought it might be a wheel bearing as sort of sounds similar to when I’ve experienced that in other cars in the past but what’s different is it seems to be louder/worse when I back off the throttle or when I push the clutch pedal in particularly when changing gears at the 70-100kmh range.
Any ideas on what this might be and whether I can do any self diagnosis at home?
Thanks very much for any pointers/advice. I guess any recommendations on where to take it for repairs in Melbourne would be r helpful too.
cheers.
