Hi I'm looking at buying a 2001 Ouback wagon and the guy said there is a grinding noise coming from the front differential he's pretty sure. I can't seem to find a front differential part to replace online anywhere, is that part of the transmission or something? Or is it called something else by subaru?
attached to it. if its grinding in has to get swapped with another.
on a automatic subaru of this year it would be where the front axles go into each side under the engine.
what would make one make vibration,...someone putting thin transmission fluid inside instead of thick gear oil ...and then driving it and damaging the diff.
you can watch this and he shows what it looks like, but does not get progress on his problem.
