puma1 Posted March 22, 2011 Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 I have a 2008 GT 500,recently I have developed a noise in the rear end and I crawled under the car tonight and looked at the differential....the axel on the left side is totally dry but the right side is partially wet and has black grease on the outside.Does this have something to do with the noise and if so what could this mean in repairs?The noise is a low whine that is a lot more prevalent when you dedcelerate.Thanks for your advise.

There is a TSB to fix that. It is fluid leaking out the vent. They give you a nice little rubber bulb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dbackg Posted March 22, 2011 Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 Change the rear differential oil and add the friction modifier. http://www.eaton.com/EatonCom/ProductsServices/PerformanceProducts/Products/Differentials/FAQ/CT_128414 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gtt500 Posted March 22, 2011 Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 First check your fluid level and condition.Have you upgraded your UCA?That will transmit more noise.Most likely cause is a pinion bearing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSSNAKE Posted March 23, 2011 Report Share Posted March 23, 2011 would that cause a whining noise? Yeah, I hear that every time I spend "my wife's money" on a new mod. Wish there was some "friction modifier" for that. Seriously, check the TSB's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shel-b001 Posted March 24, 2011 Report Share Posted March 24, 2011 If your going to change the fluid have good look inside especially if your spewing it out the vent tube. Once you change add the friction modifier & fluid take your car out to an open lot & do a couple fiqure 8 `s to squeeze the fluid into the clutch packs. Let us know how you make out.

mullens Posted March 28, 2011 Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 Groan while turning is normal. A little friction modifier will fix that. Whine while going straight is not. Mine did that and I had the bearings and pinion replaced under warranty. Get it looked at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
