well, according to a local shop, my LSD is about to take a shit. It is really wailing bad. About 3/4 months ago i changed the fluid with a full synthetic but that seemed to make the noise worse, especially on the freeway. And when I do slow turns in parking lots, something just doesn't sound right. I suspect that when i changed the fluid, it was the first time this car had had it done. But, honestly, my diff is really sounding like crap. If I can manage it, i'd like to get a replacement before winter hits. At a local junkyard is an '89 325is that still has its LSD, except that it's been sitting in on the ground in the dirt for probably 7 years.
Should i change the fluid again with some additive to get me through the winter? Or should I see if i can get the junkyard one? I"m just concerned that the one in the junkyard may be no better than mine. Also, any replacement i get i would like to one suited for better top speed. Or am I overreacting? the other day i did some donuts in the rain, which was probably a stupid thing to do, but i was able to do them...
thanks.
