diceptikonn Member 3 Member For: 11y 4m 10d Posted 09/09/13 08:51 AM Share Posted 09/09/13 08:51 AM HiJust had my 2004 BA rear diff bushes replaced as it was making a knocking noise from the back somewhere. It still makes this noise on gentle take off. Any ideas please as to what could be causing this noise?Also has a whining noise in first gear (automatic trans) and on highway at about 100kms.Anyone with ideas in these issues please..

Kmart auto suggested rear rose bushes another mech suggested rear arm blade bushes, but might have the diff looked at first. Also had the whining sound looked at by a tech suggested the gear box is on its way out: 2k to fix! Car has done 112000 ks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depending on what brand of bushes were fitted and how they were installed you might find that the noise is being enhanced by the harder bushes. This is not to say that the bushes are the problem, they are just making the issue more apparent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grellow I hear what you saying, it does make that noise on gear change as well, just not sure that if its the bush why would it just make this whining noise in first gear and when coasting? If anyone has any suggestions? But I am leaning torwards the diff being broken down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
