Re: 3.7 / 3.54 rear diff

5spd vs 6spd - hard question. This is sort of psychological. Only with more information can I make a decision. I am now in the process of gathering information. But, as i see it now, there are 3...

Re: 3.7 / 3.54 rear diff

Harvey,

that would be great news, but are you sure ? Because from reading other topics here, i got feeling that 6 speeds are 3.9 and thus can be used only with US model 3.54 due to centre diff...

Re: 3.7 / 3.54 rear diff

Good explaining Trevor. What about rear axles, are they same across markets, so i can just swap rear diff for 3.54 one, without buying 3.54 axles too ?

3.7 / 3.54 rear diff

Is it straight swap, or i have to change rear axles as well ? Just out of curiosity, what would happen, if transmission and rear differntial would have different final drive ratios ?

With regards,...

Re: 3rd and 4th gear are not engaging + weird smell

oab_au: interesting idea, but i don´t think car is in 3rd gear. It wouldn´t rev that much in speeds around 50-70 KM/H and accleration would´t be so good. It really seems it is in 2nd, but what i know...

Re: 3rd and 4th gear are not engaging + weird smell

Hello Trevor, I could ask mechanic to firstly inspect these two things you mentioned, as they should be easy for him. If repair would cost say 500EU, why not drive with VTD for year or two and then...
