Hi guys
Hoping you can help us out.
I own a 2004 L322 4.4 petrol, 54k miles.
Recently it has started making a 'bumping' noise (more of a sensation than a noise) when turning corners slowly, and it worses the harder you steer.
To me, it seems like a diff issue? It's not knocking like you would get with anti-roll bars links etc but more of a quick 'on off' bumping sensation/noise.
The car has had the diff recall done before I bought it (you can see it's pretty new as it's gleaming compared to the rest of the underside).
So, I'm thinking maybe try changing the diff oil (the car has three diffs apparently)??
I asked Land Rover and they said there is no interval listed for change of diff oil as it's not a part of any standard service. But, I assume it would have a 'life' of some sort otherwise you could have a car with 250,000 miles running on the same diff oil?
Any suggestions, help and questions very welcome!
Please help!
many thanks!
