odd diff noises?
 
Car is a 2003 6speed with w/e you call it diff tokichifosi i honestly can't remember

123,000 miles today- i purchased it at 79,000

the noise comes while it is in gear and most prevelant when i let off the throttle, it's a faint/light shutter, no vibrations or clanking just like a "thip-thip-thip" noise; if you will...
in neutral coast- nothing...i'm gonna do a diff flush this weekend at the tech day in good hopes, until then- any ideas?

/bump

just paid $118 for a diff/trans flush and refill to have a redneck mechanic tell me
"thur was trash in the diff, and about half in the transmission"
noise continues on accel and decel
FML!
finding an affordable 3.9 torsen for 6 speed is pretty much impossible

Dood, you're retarded for paying someone (especially $118) to drain and refill your diff, c'mon, it's 2 fucking bolts :noob:

Edit: tranny isn't rocket science either

Jack-$50
Set of metric wrenches-$20
Fluids-$30
Hose to fill tranny-$5
Seeing what came out of your diff-Priceless

For everything else, there's Mastercard

$13 difference, and i didn't have to break a sweat, get bit by mosquitos, and laid around the house- priceless

lol lazy ass.

i believe that the diff you have is a clutch-type and noise might be your clutches wearing out.
