Yeah I locked the diff in the snow once in my Hawkeye and forgot to turn it off, it made a horrendous noise in a car park and juddered terribly.
Another time I was running along and the diff light kept coming on intermittently, thought I had a problem. Stopped and checked the car couldn't see anything wrong. Light continued. Later that day I checked the car over and realised I had a nail in a tyre and hadn't spotted it due to the stiff sidewalls. Changed the tyre and the light went out!
