diff

help / wisdom / guidance required please gents. Noticed a kind of chattering noise from the rear of the car earlier while stationary. Could hear it inside at first from the rear seat area so got out and looked and listened underneath. It's a kind of metallic chattering noise coming from the...

Hey peeps currently in Austria atm, Going to drive home to uk tomorrow, i think the rear diff on my s211 e320 cdi is on the way out :( Symptoms On a Quiet road i can hear a humming sound although sounds like its coming from the front of the car? Sound doesnt change when turning the...

Had a look at the diff the other day and it's looking a bit damp, so thought it's time to change the oil. Does anyone know the capacity and oil spec? I think it's EP 80w90 but just want to confirm. Also, the bonnet won't stay up, and I can hear the spring mechanism clanking around on...

Double post. Please delete this one, mods.

My brother is looking the part number for an e320 diff (petrol) his part number is isnt on there (blew a hole in the diff). Does anyone know it or if any other diff will fit? e320cdi or s320?

Hi want to change the diff oil on my 1999 R129, the parts counter at Brentford quoted me over £40 per litre! Any other options that meet MB spec and are cheaper? Thanks in advance

Hi guys. I've an A170, W169, that has a manual trans that is having a bearing replaced. The technician says the crown wheel & pinion have been slightly scored and the diff may therefore make a noise when re-assembled. He's not sure as he's not done an A Class manual before. Main dealers won't...

After a bit of technical advice. I had a quaife diff fitted as the first mod to my 62 reg C63 this week. All great, has made the car a completely different animal round corners as it only had the stock open diff previously. However, when attempting to be a hooligan (sometimes you just...

Hi all, I am after some advice from people who have had the dreaded diff issue. I've been experiencing a rumble similar to wheel bearing noise which disappears when turning right. I have had the left wheel bearing changed and the noise is still present no change. I am now thinking it must be...

Ok so following on from my last thread, I need to replace my diff. It's current ratio is 2.82, I was thinking of replacing it with a diff from an s320 which would give it a ratio of 3.07. From what I've read, I would either: need to swap my gearbox control unit with the gearbox control unit...

It's gone beyond 'want'. I NEED an LSD for my E55. One-tyre fires suck balls. So does doing a three point turn with an auto box. I bought an AMG for a reason. I wish to pull out of junctions sideways, like an absolute hero. Nobody loves a one-wheel peel, and if you do get both wheels to spin...

Hi How often should the diff oil be change for my SLK32 AMG. Would fluid should I use and how much will the garage charge roughly. I always take my cars to my local bosch garage.

As above, anyone breaking a late e320 with asd? I want to change the diff ratio in the turbo diesel, so could have a 3.65 asd diff to swap if need be. :)

I have just been trying to get my merc though the Hungarian MOT so I can register it here. It's failed on a leaky rear diff. :fail However, I took it to a garage near where I live and they seemed to think it was an old leak, and I could just wash the case and take it again for a re test...

The diff on my 190E has been weeping since I got it (7 or 8 years, I think). It's not actually dripping on the ground so I don't really think about it but a few places have mentioned it over the years. Anyway, I want to get it sorted and, presumably, a few new seals/gaskets should do it...

iv just had my slk mot, when driving home a vibration started on rear left drive when engine was on overrun?, checked the drive shaft and no play, book says do not have engine running when on rolling road?, which testers always do, have they messed up the diff??
