Phil, 

Please tell me it's true!!! that my tyres will be
knackered before I stuff my rear diff!?

I still haven't gotten down to look at my S2 ... but
the rear diff has stuffed a seal and pissed oil
everywhere...

So is it true if I just replace the gasket and fill er
up with new synthetic diff oil then hopefully the
nasty noise should go away and the rear diff may
unlock?

Maybe by driving with it locked on the road I have
screwed and inner or an outer CV joint ... if so then
that's ok... at least it's cheaper than a rear diff!

What are your thoughts??

Thanks
Jase
