Differential Repair & Rebuild
SERVING GLADSTONE | MILWAUKIE | OREGON CITY | WEST LINN
If you notice a rumbling sound coming from the rear end of your vehicle, it could require a differential repair. The differential or “rear end” is located between the two rear wheels of your automobile and connects to the axle. This mechanism plays a key role in assisting your wheels as they turn, which means you can have big problems if your differential isn’t working correctly.

Signs Your Vehicle May Require a Differential Rebuild
There are few signs you’ll need to look and listen for, which can indicate if a differential rebuild may be required. Pay attention to the following:
- A loud clanking noise occurs after moving forward from a sitting position
- A rumbling or whining sound coming from the rear area of your automobile
- Symptoms get worse as your vehicle starts to coast in comparison to when your automobile is accelerating
Types of Differential Repair
When your differential goes bad, it needs to be repaired quickly by a professional. Otherwise, it could start to affect other components located on your vehicle like the transmission. Driving with a bad differential will also be unsafe. You may require one of the following repairs after a diagnosis has been completed:
- Replace the gears for your rear differential
- Replace the bearings
- Replace the seals
- Replace the gaskets
If the gears in your rear differential are completely stripped, the typical recommendation is to install a completely new differential, which is the wisest choice if you have other worn components. You can avoid this by having differential maintenance performed regularly. This includes maintenance tasks such as performing gasket changes or making sure the unit has an adequate amount of fluid.
