Diff???
I was driving along today and instantly heard this noise. I recorded some and the noise came out fairly well. It lasted about 10km and near my home it went away completely. I have no idea what it is, I estimate its something loose which would explain the on off business. Under the car seems fine.
Symptoms
1.I put it into low range and CDL, all worked fine but did not affect the noise.
2,The noise is only present with throttle and glides without noise.
3.It winds up in pitch through the gears (each gear does not reset pitch level) so the faster the wheels turn the higher pitch the noise.
4.It does not seem to hinder rolling friction or engine output power.
5.Gear box seems unaffected.
6.Sounds similar to transfer box noise when in low range but seems unaffected by transfer box operations.
So thats about it. Any ideas?

If you think you're in front on the deal, pay it forwards.
What's my wife doing in your car?
the tcase should have the same oil in it as the main box... but it will take 80/90 same as the diffs...
thinking about it...
when did you last check the oil in the tcase?

a while. I am going to do full changes tomorrow.
what oil do you recommend for (brand of oil, 10w30 ect all welcome info as I will be buying it all first thing)
front and rear diff
5 speed
centre diff
My transfer case has been singing that song with ever-increasing volume for about the past 5 years.
Redline MTL is my recommendation for the 5 speed. worth the cost.
for the transfer case and diffs i just use whatever branded 80/90 is cheapest at the time.
