The new MY17's that are/were affected are getting fixed in Germany before shipment. Quite a few were held for 2+ weeks prior to getting on a boat.
Cars have to be inspected and confirmed ok before they're released to owner. |
Mine wasn't affected by the recall apparently (built 15.07), and sent to Norway after that. However I do hear a sound from the back occasionally. Do any of you with a fixed diff. Hear this? It's apparent for a split second, and the way others have described it as driving over a cola can is spot on. Could this just be a normal sound for this car?? |
My rear diff was replaced prior to delivery on August 19. With only 120 miles on the odometer, I've heard this sound 4-5 times already, and always while turning a corner when you would expect the rear wheels to be turning at slightly different speeds. |
This is why I ask. Since you have a "fixed" diff. And by your description the sound happen exactly how they do on mine, and more or less the same frequency. We both "should" have a good diff. So what could this be then??
