Diff recon: change ratio aswell?
Dear all,
Garage diagnosed worn rear differential. Found a shop that specializes in diff reconditioning. Am wondering if I should have the ratio changed now that diff is taken apart anyway. Current ratio is 3.42 Car pulls reasonably well, but does make quite some noise at 3500-4000 rpm. If I lower the ratio (3,27), I expect the engine will become quieter, but also less powerfull. Increasing the ratio (3.64) will give more power, but also more noise, I assume. Your comments/recommendations are highly appreciated. |
If the shop doesnt have the mercedes tools and they dont shim it properly it will whine.
Id keep it the same. |
