Inspection and Verification


CAUTION: Only serviceable items can be renewed or adjusted. Failure to follow this instruction may result in the warranty
of the component being rejected.

Certain driveline trouble symptoms are also common to the engine, transmission, wheel bearings, tires, and other parts of the
vehicle. For this reason, make sure that the cause of the trouble is in the driveline before adjusting, repairing, or installing any
new components. For additional information, refer to Workshop Manual section 100-04 Noise, Vibration and Harshness.
1. Verify the customer concern by carrying out a road test of the vehicle.

2. Visually inspect for obvious signs of mechanical damage and system integrity.

3. If an obvious cause for an observed or reported concern is found, correct the cause (if possible) before proceeding to
the next step.
4. If the concern is not visually evident, verify the symptom and refer to the Symptom Chart.

Identify the Condition

Gear Howl and Whine

Howling or whining of the ring gear and pinion is due to an incorrect gear pattern, gear damage or incorrect bearing preload.

Bearing Whine

Bearing whine is a high-pitched sound similar to a whistle. It is usually caused by worn/damaged pinion bearings, which are
operating at driveshaft speed. Bearing noise occurs at all driving speeds. This distinguishes it from gear whine which is speed
dependent.



As noted, pinion bearings make a high-pitched, whistling noise, usually at all speeds. If however there is only one pinion
bearing that is worn/damaged, the noise may vary in different driving phases.
A wheel bearing noise can be mistaken for a pinion bearing noise.

Chuckle

Chuckle that occurs on the coast driving phase is usually caused by excessive clearance between the differential gear hub and
the differential case bore. www.JagDocs.com

Symptom Possible Cause Action rear drive halfshaft
Wheel bearings, brakes or
suspension components Vibration at highway speeds
Out-of-balance wheel(s) or tire(s)
Driveline out of
balance/misalignment
Driveshaft center bearing touching
body mounting point
Balance and install new wheel(s) and tire(s)
as required
REFER to: Wheel and Tire (204-04 Wheels and Tires, Removal and Installation).
For additional information,
REFER to: Driveline Angle Inspection (205-00 Driveline System - General Information,
General Procedures).
Refer to the Manufacturer approved
diagnostic system for driveshaft balancing
application
Check for correct spacer washer thickness.
Inspect and install new washers as required Shudder, Vibration During
Acceleration
Powertrain/driveline misalignment
High constant velocity (CV) joint
operating angles caused by
incorrect ride height
Check for misalignment. Install new
components as required. For driveshaft
alignment,
REFER to: Driveline Angle Inspection (205-00 Driveline System - General Information,
General Procedures).
Check the ride height and verify the correct
spring rate. Install new components as
required Lubricant Leak
Rear drive axle breather
Damaged seal
Rear drive axle filler plug
Rear drive axle rear cover joint
Check oil level and correct as required
Install new components as required Pinpoint Tests

PINPOINT TEST A : EXCESSIVE DRIVELINE NOISE TEST
CONDITIONS DETAILS/RESULTS/ACTIONS A1: CHECK NOISE FROM VEHICLE ON ROAD TEST 1 Road test vehicle to determine load and speed conditions when noise occurs. 2 Assess the noise with different gears selected. Does the noise occur in different gears at the same vehicle speed? Yes
Install a new rear drive axle/differential assembly.
REFER to: Axle Assembly - V6 3.0L Petrol (205-02 Rear Drive Axle/Differential, Removal and Installation).
Re-test the system for normal operation.
No
Suspect the engine or transmission. For additional information, REFER to:
Engine - 3.0L/4.2L (303-00 Engine System - General Information, Diagnosis and Testing), Engine - 2.7L Diesel (303-00 Engine System - General Information, Diagnosis and Testing), Diagnostic Strategy (307-01A Automatic Transmission/Transaxle - V6 3.0L Petrol, Diagnosis and Testing).

workshop manual. REFER to: Rear Drive Axle and Differential (205-02 Rear Drive Axle/Differential, Description and Operation).
Inspection and Verification


CAUTION: Diagnosis by substitution from a donor vehicle is NOT acceptable. Substitution of control modules does not
guarantee confirmation of a fault, and may also cause additional faults in the vehicle being tested and/or the donor vehicle.
1. Verify the customer concern.

2. Visually inspect for obvious signs of damage and system integrity.

Mechanical Electrical
Fixings that secure Rear Differential Control Module (Heat path
for Module Heatsink)
Fuses/Relays
Damaged, Loose or Corroded Connector(s)
Damage to Wiring Loom/Incorrect Location,
Stretched or Taught
3. If an obvious cause for an observed or reported concern is found, correct the cause (if possible) before proceeding to
the next step.

4. If the cause is not visually evident, check the system for any logged Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) and refer to the
DTC index.

DTC Index

For a list of diagnostic trouble codes that could be logged on this vehicle, please refer to Section 100-00. REFER to: Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Index - DTC: Rear Differential Control Module (RDCM) (100-00 General Information, Description and Operation).
