Yeah good point, might as well seeing as I'm nearly at the 70 000km mark. It's due for a service in a few weeks, so if it doesn't get any worse I'll probably wait until then.
Hope it's as easy as replacing diff oil let us know how you get on

Yeah me too Hq. I jacked it up yesterday, no leaks that I could see around the diff, stabilizer bar and all other suspension component fixings seemed tight and nothing looked damaged. I'll report back once I've had the service and checked/replaced the diff oil.

Getting the car serviced in a week and a half's time, so will get them to check it out then. It's either not doing it so much now, or I just can't hear it as much since putting sports mufflers on.
