e_racer1999 Posted December 27, 2007 Share #1 Posted December 27, 2007 on my way to work on xmas eve the car started making a whining noise right in the drivetrain. after first thinking it was a bearing in the tranny, I discovered oil on the exhaust by the diff and a soggy pumpkin. right after work i limped her over to ZWhizz to have the diff gasket changed (since that's what i thought it was). anyway, long story short, they found that it WASN'T the gasket, but the diff was shooting oil out of the breather. I searched the archives and found that people were experiencing similar symptoms with a clogged breather. any other ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
e_racer1999 Posted December 29, 2007 Author Share #2 Posted December 29, 2007 ZWhizz said that someone may have removed the baffles from the diff cover. I picked up another diff (Thanks Ben!) and plan on installing it maybe this weekend. that will give me a chance to disassemble the old one and see what's going on. updates to follow!

beandip Posted December 29, 2007 Share #3 Posted December 29, 2007 This a new one. I have never heard of baffles or a pumpkin leaking oil like this . Is this a R-200 or a 180? Please do keep us informed in what you find. Gary:ermm: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
