    How do you know when the rear diff is knackered?

      Mine went "KABOOOOOOOOOOOOOM" when I did a 7000rpm launch without the difflock , that tought me never to launch without it.

      The car actually jumped up a few centimeters. And the ppl sitting inside a restaurant about 50 meters away heard the bang.

        So if i get this right, its better to use the diff lock ON when doing a full throttle start? Other than that it should be fine OFF?
