Diff goes click, clunk and donk
Hey guys.

I have this clicking sound come from my diff area while I'm driving around. It normally happens will I am changing gear. I changed my diff oil the last night because I thought this would solve the problem but it didn't.

I guess it means its dieing but I just want to be sure..any suggestions?

Are you sure its the diff and not your gearbox? Sound can travel in mysterious ways you knowSmile

Anyways, I have no idea what could cause this in a diff... Hope someone else knows...

couldn't it be that the joints from the axel to the diff are loosening a bit.
Because when you shift gear, the drive is 'lost' so for a while the rear axle drives the axle, then you are finished with shifting and then it's the other way around. If there is some space between the joints, it could make some sounds
