havent been able to find a previous thread but does anyone else have a problem of their diff clunking, when coming to a stop the clunk felt, or when accelerating at slow speeds such as in 1st and second gear (auto) the clunk is felt in the diff, like their is movement in it? be appreciated if anyone knows the problem, or how to fix it, thanks

You can buy an additive for that from Holden or any good performance shop.

I'm a bit sceptical that an additive would fix the problem.

I had the exact same thing in my VY SS, and Holden just replaced the diff under warranty. $1100 worth of diff apparantley.

This is quite a common problem, I'd get it looked at soon cos trust me, it's gonna get WORSE! I don't spose yours is still under warranty?

I have noticed diff problems are common with VY/VZ.

I have got the same problem , but its not as bad...specially when I am reversing, or driving in low gears.. mainly when i slow down and accelerate again around the corners..
What additive for Holden you are talking about?!!!
