had to go to the suby dealer
cause there was a lot of thumping coming from under it. Only when I broke traction in snow / ice. I posted about this a while ago and I pretty much got the idea that it was my diff. Well I took the suby tech out and made it thump for him which didn't take too much and he insisted it wasn't the diff ( too much thump). So they got it up in the air and found that it had accesive play in the rear tranny mount. The mount hasn't came in yet so I don't know if for sure that's the problem. I wanted to know if anybody else has had this problem.

My guess is it is just the noise LSDs like to make when they are "working". For example, when I enter a parking lot on an angle, one of my rear tires will leave the ground and I usually hear some LSD "chatter". This is normal. You are likely to hear some thunking with the center diff locked when driving in the snow. IMO it is normal...this is based on my experience with the STi and 4x4s before that. During this last snow storm I once again heard noise from the LSDs....normal IMO.
What isn't normal is when your STi makes no noise...LOL. |
