Default Re: Diff Is Gone

No lock up in the rear and the car just jiggles left/right, just like the Cayman would

Actually it is a "wear item" just like the rotors, so normally they don't replace them under warranty. However, with so few miles they thought it is appropriate, which I agree and am pleased. I asked them if they can actually replace the clutch pack with the motorsport one, they are going to check and let me know.

A friend of mine had the very same issue with even less miles on it with his GT2 that already had GT internals. So, from a durability perspective, that may not be the solution either, although the GT2 puts out a lot more torque than the GT3. So, I will see what I can get from the dealer, and I will also talk with Levitas as he is an expert on diffs IMO. Mike will be out of town next few days though, at VIR with Bman and Trakcar Their gonna have fun, while I am waiting at home for a diff

Yup, stock diff was re-ramped and re-packed with Guard components. 16- track sessions (25 min each) and clutch packs had moved/worn. Initial performance was awesome but it was easy to tell when the discs were worn. Especially under braking. Ramps are fine. We just added more preload and couple of new discs. Hopefully the additional preload will improve durability.

Repacked diff was awesome!

Car's a bit tighter now and has more understeer than I want but it's super stable under braking and when putting down power.
