Exactly - but in person it all covered in a lot of dust. I guess it has been sitting there for a while. I agree about the oil but I can't check it - it is "take it as it is" - can't open it up to check :( This has led me to another rabbit hole of people restoring rusty things on YouTube 😭

In the end they had both (front and rear) on their yard

Well, I went there to take a look, it looks more "rusty" than I anticipated. Wondering if it would be useful at all... They don't have information regarding the reason why the car was scrapped. Does anybody have experience with this? Can I expect the differential gears to be rotten/rusty, to...

Great, thanks for the tips! I will probably be back here with more questions though :)

I did find a used front one in a scrap yard near me. Although they tell it is "fine" I can't trust it (if you follow Vera/Christian's channel, I believe used parts here have the same problems). However, I thought of buying that to be able to open it up, and examine it on a "bench setup", so I...

Great, thanks! Now, regarding front and hear differential assemblies, the only difference would be the three / four bolt flange? And Front/Rear Wheel Hub Assemblies are the same, except for the length of the ABS cable?

I drove around today in an empty parking lot, trying to do "circles". The noise does not seem to change at all. But, as you said, that does not rule out that the wheel bearings are actually ok. But they seem to pass all the "normal tests" to verify them. I then took it for a ride to reach...

Or are there differences? What about the wheel hub assemblies? From what I can gather from Atlantic British, they appear to be same. Cheers, thanks!

Checked that - they are not the culprit, unfortunately.

Not really sure but I guess not. However the "Land Rover Specialist" had to remove them in order to take a look at the rear differential I imagine. I have had the car for a few months. Given my poor experience with the local mechanics, I decided to start learning and doing things myself. So...

Yep, hopefully it is only that - I will try all these things and report back :)

Nice suggestion, thanks!

F*** did not know that, thanks, will do! Interesting - I am going to need one of those torque tools (along with axle stands). Thanks again! Really hoping that it is something easier to fix :)

Hi! Discovery 2 2004 V8 (HSE Trim) owner since a few months ago. After a few unsuccessful visits to local "Land Rover Specialists" decided to venture into the area and try to tackle things myself. Impressed by the knowledge base here and looking forward to learn new things. Special thanks to...

Yes, it gets higher/high pitched as I go faster. Yeah... I wonder how good he is. He ruled out the problem with a visual inspection only. I only saw the three amigos once - after I hit a major hole on the road. Cleared the codes with Nanocom and they never appeared again ( so far :) ). Good...

Ah sorry, did not know the term engine braking. Yes I tried going downhill without pressing the gas pedal (nor brakes) - the noise is still there. As soon as I touch the gas, noise goes away. I tried in neutral as well as engaged in D, or 3, 2, 1 (1 less prominent given the lower speed). And I...

Thanks for the reply - the noise continues even when I press the brakes. But as soon I step on the gas, disappears. I don't think he had tools to assess backslash up to that precision. There is no noticeable play when moving prop shaft manually (up/down) - nor when turning the wheels (prop...

Hi there, posting this here to get help I have a noise coming from the rear that only appears when coasting - I recorded a video, hopefully people can hear it well: Things I have already did myself: - replaced front driveshaft with new one - replaced rear driveshaft ujoints - greased...
