    Rear wheel bearings or diff

    Ears can deceive and noises tend to transmit down body and propshaft etc. An easy check and a very likely cause is the VCU bearings. Simply unbolt and support the VCU clear of body then spin them by hand on the prop. Check for backlash (free play) in diff and also oil level and oil for metal...

    SOLVED - FL1 Driver's door lock barrel/cylinder replacement.

    That is one of the 'pawls'. There is one for each dip and rise in the key. When correct key goes in they all line up level and the key will turn.

    ABS Reluctor Ring - Solved
