Thread: Diff Whine in D3

yup - I am going to get a second opinion on both the compressor and diff. Has anyone used Rick's 4WD Centre @ Nerang and if so would you recommend them?

Thanks again,
Brett

The guys in GLCRO highly recommend Rick's.

Thanks Bigmac. I'll get them to check the wheel bearings. GP.

If you get really stuck - I'll help drain the wine from your diff!

Rob is very good at draining other poeples wine.

Not just other people's wine... mine as well!

Never fear... another shipment has arrived and I'm now sorted for red!

Hey guys, I've just bought a D3 with 95k on it and was told by the previous owner that the front diff was replaced at 80k and the compressor at 65k. I've just got it back from the 100k service was told that i need front CV's {entire shaft required} and front wheel bearing pack and bushes? So i can only assume these are common for D3's???

If you bought this out-of-warranty , the seller probably
saw it coming ....... welcome to expense , and yes , it's not
that uncommon .
