    Default LSD Thud Noise?

    I gotta 6sp VT SS And whenever i changed down gear i hear a thud nosie coming from the back of the car.
    Could it be the Diff?
    What could be the problem? Would just topping it up with some more fluids help ?
    I need a general idea of what it could be before i take it to the mecanic so i kinda know if hes rippin me off lol

    do you do burnouts in it? thats probably your problem (not bagging you out for doing burnouts i do them all the time just speaking from experience) if so you probably need a new diff centre... basically the answer to the question is yes you probably need a new diff

    Nothing major, Put my foot down around a corner sometimes.
    The noise is only when i take off from 1st or when im driving slowly and normally in low gears. Pretty much only when i change up from 1st n down from 3rd or 2nd. never happens durin any other gear changes
