Do you guys with manual transmissions have differentials that are noisy or that have more backlash than usual? Or do all benz differentials have this problem? Or is it that the drivers of automatic cars just don't notice the backlash? (this is my only Benz, so I don't have anything for comparison)

I take it not many 5 speed folks have had a differental problem, I havent with mine but I dont put that many miles on.
I dont think there is any differance in the W123, auto transmission, and 4 speed (or 5) manual cars, in regard to differental problems. I realize we are talking two WAY different cars, plus "gasser & diesel, but I had thought anyone with a 123 5 speed (or 4 spd) woulda chimed in.
