My rear diff is toast, the Jaguar dealership never changed the oil at the required service 2 years ago and now it has a really significant whine

Should I get a new one - I think they are about 3.5k? Or is there a cheaper source of new ones

Or if there anywhere that rebuilds them?

Or do i take a punt on a used one from Trents where they go for about £550ish but with an unknown history

Nah mate I'd sue the dealership for not keeping up the service to specification that you paid them for.

If it can be proved, take legal advice.
