HI there,

I would suggest first changing your differential fluid with part number 88862426.

This should eliminate the noise after a few days of driving.

Allthebest, c4c5

Hi there,

If you are not seeing any actual contact and the alignment angles are within specification, I still suggest the fluid change.

Allthebest, c4c5
