No howling. Thought I heard it last week but wasn't sure. Noticed it today and only thin I've have time to do is make sure I hadn't lost any fluid.

I'd sure get that checked. Indays gone by that was a sure indicator that the fluid was do a change. But, since they don't like to call this a true positraction rear axle, I don't think old school logic applies.

I'm in Greenville area as well.

I grew up in Camden, SC......now look where I live. That was a stupid move. How I long for warmth and sunshine.

Sorry, no clue on the rear end. Time for a trip to the dealer I suppose.

If the noise is only while turning. it is the rear end. Either the axle housing bearings are bad or the LSD itself. Your dealer will most likely replace the both.
