      Default Rear axle noise, any ideas?

      I've seem to have developed noisy and noticable grinding/groaning/vibrating sound coming from the rear axle. It happens at low speeds when turning left or right and going forward or reverse.

      I've read that there have been problems in America with the rear diff failing. Hope this is not the case.:(

      Anybody experienced this problem before or have any ideas?

      Think it going to be a trip to the stealers.:angry:

      does the noise disappear at speed then? or is the road noise making it to hard to tell?

      It's only at low speeds or parking and when turning on full lock.
