Default URGENT HELP subaru's off the road again..............

Last nite driving down my road we suspect that the rear diff has gone, the car wouldnt move 400 yards to my house so i spent 4 hours waiting for the rac to come in a truck and put it outside.

When you release the handbrake or put it in gear it will go then judder and make alot of a kinda banging noise then the car stops, almost sounds like somethings stuck somewhere!

has anyone had this problem?

Is this a Subaru warranty ? If so Subaru assistance will give you a hire car if your car is immobilised for more than 4 hours (iirc) and they tow it to a Subaru dealers .
