  7. My Front Differential Story

    in AWD, Differential, & Transmission Tech

    Posted

    Lately I've developed a 'scraping' noise I swear is coming from the front driveline. It is the loudest when the truck is warmed up and running about 30mph. I noticed that the application of throttle influences the noise. Throttle on equals noise. Throttle off equals less noise. This is definately metal on metal contact type of noise.

     

    Anyways, I took to a shop in my area that has a flawless reputation and they gave it a thorough check. First thing they did was take it for a test drive and wouldn't you know it. It being very cold the noise was barely there. Second, they checked front differential fluid. Clear and no metal shavings on the magnetic plug. They checked the transfer case and it looked good. They checked the rest of the driveline and could find no issues.

     

    I can't be a wheel bearing. It's probably not a CV joint. What could it be? This is starting to bug me.

     

    Thoughts anyone?

     

    Regards,

    I have the same thing you have but with the shavings on the plug. The carrier bearing on the drivers side is going out. I drained the fluid and put new fluid back in. While I was under the truck I grabbed the hub that bolts to the wheel axle and can move it up and down and all around. Thats not cool!!!! So instead of letting Chevrolet try to fix a problem they know all about and want correct I will be installing a Jaspers front differential. They have a 3 year 100,000 mile warranty on there differentials. :) I talked with a tech and they know of all the problems with them and they have been updated. These people have there act together. They update everything. Basicly they take a piece of crap and make it perfect. The front unit costs 1800.00 with a core. Hopefully this will steer you in the right direction.
