KZTE 2002 4x4 diff.

Post by Illusion »

Hi
I had what I thought was tyre noise and I got the vehicle checked by a garage. They say it is the diff making the noise.
Does anybody know or can recommend a place in Cape Town were I can get the vehicle checked and the diff fixed or replaced.
Thanks, Paul

Paul I agree with Eric

Allen has serviced my Hilux and has recently rebuilt the whole front diff because of a collapsed input shaft bearing, which caused HUGE noise!

He is a Hilux guy with centuries of experience when it comes to Hiluxes! You will be helped and NOT ripped off when it comes to bill time!

He also warants his work for 12 months, so there is peace of mind built in!

My reply is a little late but thanks for the advice Gents.
After three different people told me my diff was making the noise I took my Bukkie to Alan Venter ("Hoppy")
He sorted it out for me and it ended up only being a wheel bearing. So I saved a good few rands.
Thanks to Alan and his team.
