Re: Noisy diff

The rumble increases with road speed only. Hard or mild acceleration does not change the pitch. CV boots OK, no grease leaking, CV joints feel OK. In reverse (with the car on stands) the noise is less, but I can't tell if the rumble is there as (a) can't go fast enough in reverse and (b) reverse gear is very noisy anyway. I have also noticed a tinkling noise in the diff that sounds as though there is a small part or a ball bearing tumbling around all by itself.
