Strong Smell - Diff Oil

[88GreenVN]

I've had the diff rebuilt xmas time and all was good for a while. Last week the car gets a big shudder turning into my street and now I have a strong smell of diff oil. Cant see any oil drips - no mess on the drive or where I park at work. No oil on the back of the car. How can a diff burn up oil - does it have a seal that can give way?

Should add here it is the LSD in the V8

More than likely an axle seal leaking.....Allows oil to get on the hot brake rotor.

Hmmm. no oil on the wheels but I guess it dosent need much to make the car very smelly. Just no oil any where at all - so rotor could be it burning it up and no oil smear on the car.

The shudder is something else then. probably = LSD buggered again

Could be the LSD worn out, the oil smell can come out of the breather.

Breather... Oil on lsd parts to make it shudder. Rebuilt 3 months ago. Only does 6-10 kms per day. It's getting looked at on Friday. Something is very wrong with it. Should be covered by warranty.
