sounds like you need to

A: post in the correct section of the forum

B: try telling people what you drive. some of us have had to pawn our crystal balls to fund repair costs.
 
Good evening folks, it's me back at the helm now and I apologise for my hubby posting this in the wrong section last night ! It's him who has been 'grinding' while accelerating ;-)

We're trying to find out which type of diff we have currently on our motor, we know the rear axle was changed at some point and we believe it may be a post 2002 axle (on our 1997 vehicle), but we're not entirely sure what it is !
I'm hoping I've managed to upload some pics for you wonderful folks to identify for us !!!

Thanks in advance x

Well it was a P38 that we needed, we have changed it today and we now have a wonderful Lady landy again who no longer grinds or bangs (sorry chaps !) ;-)
