Rear end noise

[madsav]

VX sedan ls1 6pd manual.
Only pick up the car the other day , from about 5km/h onward i can hear a whining sound from the rear of the car.
when i reach about 60km/h hold the clutch in i can still hear the sound . any thoughts on what to check i was think eaither low diff oil or rear wheel bearings. how would i test to see what it is?

Only picked up the car the other day.......didn't you notice this whine before you got it ?

might be a limited slip or std look for FM tag or sticker

whine at that speed of 5 km on is usually diff ... diff takes two liters .....a drain bolt and a filler hole
it may be wise to take off the cover if no oil or very black

rear wheel bearings rumble more .... try one thing at a time

to easy yeah this doesnt rumble so ill check the diff fluid tomorrow thanks mate

let your misses out off the boot. lol.

Diff fluid was milky brown, plus the bearings in the diff are screwed, now i gotta try and find a 3.46 lsd diff for $300 or less

Milky brown oil....mmmm.
Might be wrong but that sounds like it may have been under water.

If so I would be checking the gearbox oil ...if under there

something doesn't sound right with the car
