Finally got it rwc and leaving mechanics giving it no berries whatsoever bang diff exploded. and I mean exploded all over back of car. Underneath coated in black grease,not oil. pulled bits out from under cradle.now I got a car I'm paying a fortune for that needs a whole new rear end put in. Costly Lesson learned ...never buy nothing u haven't inspected yourself cause it can cost u big time.

Expand aw man, that's just life! my tailshaft quit life 5ks from the sellers house when I got my current BF. I say this cause I flogged the car during the test drive and couldn't feel anything majorly wrong. You play you pay unfortunately and I really feel for you having your old car written off!

Box stock T. Member 1,384 Member For: 10y 26d Posted 02/11/16 05:39 AM Share Posted 02/11/16 05:39 AM Buying new ain't an option for an FPV not no more, and pilko wanted his BF F6 back again. So the joys of second hand and a sh¡t load of killer wasps getting transferred to that rear end.

Bought my '06 BF 2 weeks ago and already had to drop a grand on a slave cylinder replacement and brakes getting stuck all due to old brake fluid. Hopefully you get it sorted without emptying your pockets mate!
