so does anybody know how long the moan or whine can go before it craps out? i stoped driving my car until I get my diaqueen fluid and change the oil and see if I have metal chisp on my tcase.
I had this same problem, took it to John Shepard along with a new Tcase and my problem was solved :x
call john up and ask, he's dealt with it before he'll tell you straight up what the problem is....

and if you dont know who john shepard is.... well he's a god.

As I hear it, the Diaqueen has an 'anti-shock' additive that keeps the lube in place under extreme load.
I had my tranny and tc rebuilt by TurboTrix Racing and had them send the gears to Armoloy for coating. It cost a few $$$ but it is smooth and quiet and my fear faces are now 72c rockwell.

has anybody tried a law suit against the dealership for putting the wrong oil in the tcase? Because my oil was very thin and I am pist. I saved my oil in a bottle and I am going to see what i can do about this.

i had my tranny worked on by mitsu and when they filled the t-case up after re-install they used tranny fluid. t-case was whining within a thousand miles....so they replaced it. now this one is whining, but its been about 10k miles.....just gonna get the mfer built and call it a day
dont worry about it. Drive it until it stops then tow it to the dealer. They may not replace the TC and tranny every time. I never had any luck with any of my tc's on the old evo.

when the tc whines is bc 99% of the time the wrong fluid was put in causing damage to the ring and pinions... It only takes one time for it to get damaged,this is why i dont take mine to the dealer to get it changed
