What Limited Slip Differential Shudder May Sound Like/ The Symptom, Causes and Fixes

In this video I go over what a limited slip differential shudder may sound like and discuss the causes and fixes. I was even able to catch some limited slip shudder audio to share with you.

Limited slip differential shudder can also be described as a growling noise, a chattering noise or a vibration coming from the rear of the vehicle when making turns at very low speeds, usually 1-2 mph. It's caused by the limited slip clutch pack locking and unlocking repeatedly at a fast rate. Typically, in my experience, this is caused by one of two things. One: a differential service has been performed but friction modifier was not added. Two: the rear clutch packs are worn or damaged. Sometimes you can get by with just adding friction modifier to the rear end in the cases where the rear end was serviced and the modifier was left out. Of course if the clutch packs are worn or damaged they will need to be replaced.
