Default I wonder....

Do all WRX AWD Scooby's make a whining noise??? I got told that they do because of the diff????

Is this true?? Taking into account that this car is had 1 previous owner (who I know and has always looked after this car)

Don't think mine does. Only the turbo if I occasionally stray above 2500rpm!

Just been speaking to a mate with the Classic shape and he said his 'whines' coming down the box - he works for Scooby and reckons its the diff and is normal?!?!

Never noticed much whining myself (MY00). Usually a sign that the diff is on the way out.

Thanks for the replies!!


Maybe its a 'Scooby' thing. I mean, normally, if the diff whines, then yes, its on its way out, but I think Scoobys sound like that?!?

Cheers anyway!!
