wouldn't bother with a salvage diff TBH, they're silly money when a Genuine service exchange diff is only slightly more expensive. (same diff for D3 and D4 btw.  ) Bodsys Brake Bible

Mine didn't fail but I could hear it whine when I drove it out the dealers forecourt at 4miles  Its not the height of the fall but the sudden stop at the bottom that hurts!!
