I also have a quick question, when turning sometimes you hear what is like creaking coming from the rear wheels, could this be the diffs?? any ideas?

Thanks

Hmm that sounds like just it!! only at low speeds in car parks and when pulling onto the drive, so how does it actually make that noise? and is it something to worry about??? new to the world off 4x4 off roads. I understand how an lsd works, so is it just the wheel locking up under load when the weight of the car pushes down and pivots when turning??

thanks

hi, get the oil changed in the rear diff before it causes any problems, i had the same trouble and it was because i changed all the diff,gearbox oils, unaware that the rear diff was a limited slip type. you see if a garage has changed it recently and they get their data off "autodata" disc, the information doesnt say anything about lsd spec oil, it just says 75/80, opposed to the lsd75/80! easy mistake.

Sounds like the steering stops.

There is one at the front and rear of the front disc's, you'll see them if you look, slap some grease on and the noise will go:thumb2

Roger your steering stops will be causing a graunching noise on full lock if you bounce over anything during the turn (kerb, pothole etc..) - its easily fixed with either a new Nissan rubber thingy that goes over it or a dollop of grease....

This is an ideal LSD oil - its what made mine go quiet...and at £3.99 a litre???!!!

Yea its down to one of two issuses, steering stops which are cheap and easy to fix either way a good blob of greese to finish off!!

At the read the LSD oil if needs changing it must be LSD oil as it can cause problems if its not right i had trouble locationg proper LSD oil here found it at a agricultural retailers!! farmers and tractors huh!!

as for the mad house... welcome sure we even have a few wacky paddies here too!!
