Brian, I just went through this ordeal on my Spitfire. The diffs really are not that noisy (the fact that it only sits two feet from your ears vice the 6 to 8 in other vehicles probably affects it) I

I have a similar problem, and I am also unsure whether it is a normal noise, or if somehting is wrong. The car has always had the noise, at least since I have had it, and it is just a moderately loud
