Noise with differrential?~
With the heavy snow last week my wife noticed that there was a kinda shimy noise in the 1999 ML320 when driving. The wining gets louder and at a higher frequency as I go faster. My trusty eastern europen mechanic says it might be the differential, but he's doing more test. I trust this guy, he's always fair and has worked on my 1984 300D the last 2 years. Last week, the rear passenger window didn't work on the ML. Mercedes said the regulator needs to be replaced for $700. This mechanic fixed it with a $15 part. Now the ML has 54,800 miles on it and I had Mecedes do a full tune-up at 49,000 miles. If it is the expensive differential, what are my chances that I can get Mercedes Benz to fix it on warranty which expired at 50,000 miles. This ML are given me plenty of electrical trouble and the engine rings were rebuilt at 31,000 after I complained since 19,000 of it drinking oil like a lush. This is my 3rd leased MB and frankly, they don't make them like they used to anymore, especially the ML. Thanks for your insights, guys.
