Really only hear it in low rpm in 1st gear, like creeping through a parking lot. Doesn't sound bad, just not used to it I guess. Today I changed the diff oil with Lucas 75-90 full synthetic. Bought the car with only 10k on it so it was likely oem filled. Fair amount of break-in goo on the magnet. Initial impression sounds quieter, I'll know more with some miles
