No fun... Just had mine replaced through my local dealership (warranty expired ). AHM was willing to cover half...which left me $1800.00 out of pocket. Good luck. If you are *within* warranty, there is every reason to believe, provided the dealer is decent, that you will be covered under warranty. Again, good luck though.

Its threads like this that scare me. I am looking to sell my S2000 just replaced the diff for the 1st time at 60,000 miles. It was done in by a weekend at the Dragon. Probably 6-7 laps 11 miles long 318 curves!!! It wa my 3rd trip down there no issues before that so it was due! I did though have the inner CV joint replaced 1 time before that at 50K so I wonder if that shaking caused the diff to go sooner.

Reason why the thread scares me having said that. I never dropped the clutch doing street racing or drag racing but just drove the car well and it failed at 60K others are going at 25K!!!

I see lots of cars out there for sale with 20-30K on the dial and wonder............how soon are those diffs gonna go. And at 3K + to replace it...............its gonna suck! Just wish that people looking at my car will understand that 60K on the OEM diff. and it just being replaced IS A GOOD THING!

mine is fully covered under warranty.....only 12K on the odo.....thanks tho....


PS Wait until my DARK DIFF is replaced....then you will be unrecognizeable as a bannana, or any sort of fruit.....
muuuahhhhahhhahahahah

For all those who have the differentials going early, did you change the differential fluid at all?

I've resolved to keep my differential oil changed every 5k-7500 miles to see if that keeps it from grenading.

nope...not yet....i will when i get a new diff tho!@

When my differential went at 25k miles, I hadn't changed the oil yet. I think with the new one, I may change it out sooner to see if it makes a difference.
