    Any other bad Differentials out there?

    im positive that mine came from the factory defective. This makes me think they were using subpar parts. I would push it with VWOA to replace.

    **UPDATE** After going nearly insane, I took this to my local dealer and MADE the lead tech ride in the back seat while I drove around in the area. I was able to replicate it for him. 2 hours later they diagnosed a bad rear Diff. and VW will be replacing it under warranty. It was quick... and...
