How can I tell if I cracked my differential on my AWD sedan?.

 

Does it leak? Do you see a crack?

 

Leak what? and how/where would I see a crack?.. I was testing my AWD because it's been acting really funny because it's been burning out(WTF) and stuff like that so I tried a quick launch and the back tires were spinning and the car bunny hopped and I heard like a pop. But when I drive I don't hear anything.

 

Be carefull !!
Do u hear any banging sounds @ low speeds ? When AWD is activated and goes away after 20 mph or so ? The fact that your burning out tells u AWD is not working correctly. Are u getting a AWD MIL on your dash ? I can tell u from xperience that if your U joint goes on the front prop shaft it will not throw a MIL and this will happen.

 

I don't hear any banging sounds at all at low speeds or high speeds.. I'm not getting a AWD MIL on my dash either. What's AWD MIL? When I turn on my Snow button that comes on and I feel the car losing power and etc.. So I'm guessing the AWD is eh? You think it may be the tires?.

 

^ All the snow button does is retard acceleration.

AWD MIL, is the AWD light that will turn on if something is wrong.

 

So what does that mean exactly? My AWD MIL light isn't on?.

 

Wow, that is crazy! did you make a thread with more detail about this? I would love to hear more about this. Do you have any other pictures?

 

Yes really all the same shot just from different angles
kinda painfull 2 look @ thats my transmission with the hole in it but if it can help another G/Z owner I can live wit that
