Thanks Peter. Will bear that in mind. Am not doing anything at the moment as it doesn't seem to get any worse. Have been given a quote for a diff rebuild.

I have a 54 reg S Type SE Diesel Luxury Package 101000 miles. For the past year the differential seems to be slightly noisy with a whine on part throttle between 55 and 70 mph. it has not got any worse and it is quite easy to live with, but it would be nice to have it completely silent. Is it something to live with or would it need an expensive diff rebuild? The differential oil has been changed to see if it would cure it but to no avail.

I have a 2004 S type SE diesel. It's my second Jag (X type). I bought the S type in 2010 and have been so impressed with it. It is so silent for a diesel. It's fully loaded with electric head rests and TV and has cream leather with brown piping. I have always loved the old Mark 2's since a kid and the new S type has the nearest look to those. I have always been a Jag fan.
