Midwst Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 Just looked at a 1995 Legacy...pulled the front differential dip stick out, wiped it on a paper towel, lots of black residue on shaft, and tip. Test drove it, noisy both sides going around turns...just like mine. Okay...maybe somehow dirt got in there...doubt it. Residue not silver, but black. any one else run across this before?

I guess you have AT, right? Mine (2000) had some of that since almost new. Replaced oil at 42000 miles, had a lots of small metal particles (front and back). I understand this is considered normal in diffs. Now, with redline oil in diffs, at 60000 miles, there is some diff noise, but not too bad. I bet no one changed the fluid in that 95 legacy...
