What to do after blowning a rear differential R36.

Good to hear

[ALR36]

Hey Waah954,
I'll be interested to found out what had gone wrong with the old diff? Do you get your mechanic to pull the back plate off to have a look inside?

[Waah954]

Oh yeah sorry didn't think anyone was keen on to know what happen.

Keep the story short it's correct there was no oil in the diff and you can say it's bullet proof cause it done 16-17k kms before it died.

[ALR36]

was there leak or someone forget to check the oil levels

[Waah954]

Long story shot when I done the major my mechanic drained the diff had to step out to get a part told the apprentice to fill the diff... Seems like he only filled the haldux

[ALR36]

Cool thanks, as this is the first diff that I'm aware that had failed.

[Umai Naa!!]

Yep, pretty much as I suspected initially.

They don't just fail of their own accord.

[Waah954]

No thank you and everyone else for the help.

[Waah954]

Yeah you called it Umai...

Gives the rest some comfort to know it was human error, and to be vigilant when having the oil changed. Hopefully doesn't sour the experience at all for you of enjoying your R
