Hi there my disco has been running fine but It's had an oil leak coming from the rear axel, the differential housing. It's been dripping out for about a week, it's not from one of the drain or filler plugs but from the body of the housing itself. I was going to araldite over the small hole where it's seeping through and get teh oil changed. I can't shift the filler plug at all, can't get the leverage under the car.
Any way today the disco has developed a rattling kinda noise, only happens when moving and I guess it must be coming from the diff.
Do you reckon that if the oil has mostly drained out I'm grinding metal in the diff and that's the noise? and do you reckon I'll have killed it now?
Cheers
BUT the most annoying thing though is that I'm off tommorow working thursday and due to be going to wales this weekend with the kids. So I've got about 600 miles of driving planned from thursday night .
It's been running so well too.
