Ive only had old fords ,xr, xw ,XB coupe ect but now I have an XR6 turbo 2002 with 65300ks on the clock and after a couple of months of hard driving there is some serious grinding noise coming from, Im guessing the diff. It only happens when I lift the go peddal. no issues when accelerating. any ideas would be really helpfull

Ive been doing a little investigating into bush replacements and on the way to work no stereo and the metalic clicking noise ( sounds a bit like a bearing ) seems to be comming more form the left side rather than in the center of the car.Whats the chance it could be a cv.Ive also noticed a nocking when reversing , same noise when you lift off the power.
Gee Member 131 Member For: 17y 5m 17d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne Posted 09/10/10 06:39 AM Posted 09/10/10 06:39 AM It could be a CV but when you gives these diff a hard time the LSD destroys itself. To test the LSD, jack up one wheel and see if you can spin it. If you can spin it the diff centre is broken and say bye to 1000+ to reco it or to get a strong centre say bye to 2000+
