Always the bit you least expect!!

Well done for finding the source of all your noise.

Well i had a touch of luck today.

found a new diff from a scrapyard on ebay.
went to pick it up and they were still removing it from the car. Has a look round and realised it was a Sport!
i thought i was getting a standard one and already had my old one apart to swap the LSD bit into the standard one but i didnt need to.
Also while i was there pocketed a couple of other bits i needed, like a spare AC panel for a project, a replacement ECU cover cause mines got a dent in it, and a Airbox badge for the steering wheel mod.

Anyway got the diff home and spent the afternoon changing the oil in the new one and fitting it. all is good with the car now! got a slight rattle but the exhaust just needs a small adjustment. but no awful grinding/whining noise now when i drive.

feel so relived its been annoying me for ages!
