So my bad luck with the diff in my VF continues.
Ever since installing new Truetrac there has been a knock coming from the diff area of the car, a deep knock that gets faster with road speed. But strangely goes away after about 20 mins of driving.
Just had the car back to diff builder, who is trying to tell me that it’s due to the car being too low, and driveshaft (passenger side he thinks) inside the housing is knocking somewhere.
Even though the previous Truetrac, that was in the car for 3 years never made this noise And height hasn’t changed, although did eventually develop a whine and start leaking, reason I changed it.
The noise is really bad when cold. And I know of several other VE/VFs with Truetracs at similar height with no dramas.
To me if it was due to height how would it go away when hot?
Any thoughts or advice appreciated.
