First off, please use proper english and grammar. Then we might actually be able to decipher what it is you are trying to say.

Re: locking up problem sum 1 help plz

Rear end noises can be hard to diagnose. Does it make more noise turning in one direction vs the other? If it does that would make me think wheel bearing.

When you say locks up are you saying it's skipping/hopping?

I'm not an expert, I don't think anyone on this board will claim to be. We all have varying levels of experience in maintenance and with these cars.

I was trying to make a point that if you write an intelligent statement instead of a runon sentence using text shorthand you won't get people making what you perceive to be silly statements. I had to read it four times just to get it to make sense But, enough of that. Since you do actually have a problem...

Could be your limited slip differential is going bad or you have another problem with your axles. You will have to take your rear apart to check the axles or the diff or take it into a shop and have them do it. What exactly is the sound? Grinding/popping? does the car sort of hop as you turn in that directions? Do you hear a whining sound when you drive? Either under acceleration, deceleration or at cruise?

Re: locking up problem sum 1 help plz

Additive shouldn't mess it up. If you're talking about Posi Limited Slip stuff it only helps quiet down the chatter it's not going to fix grinding or etc if you have other problems.

Unless you feel comfortable pulling it apart yourself I would recommend taking it into a local shop. Local Tire/Service Shop here only charges $30-$50 for inspections to isolate noises and vibrations. They would tell me which wheel bearings or etc was bad on my wife's FWD car and I would just take it home, buy the parts, and change it myself. You pay a little more that way but it's far easier for them to diagnose and find the noises than me rolling around in my garage.

Also you might want to settle down and watch your language around here. Members that start trouble don't tend to last very long before getting banned.

When you say 360's do you mean U turns, or are you spinning all the way around till you are facing the same direction?

Re: locking up problem sum 1 help plz

What is this whirring noise?
Whirring noise only while decelerating at any or all speeds is most likely caused by bad pinion bearings or loose pinion bearing preload, and almost never by bad ring and pinion gears.

A howl or whine during acceleration over a small or large speed range is usually caused by worn ring and pinion gears or improper gear set up.

Rumbling or whirring at speeds over about 20 mph can be caused by worn carrier bearings. The noise may change while turning.

Regular clunking every few feet may indicate broken ring or pinion gears.

Banging or clunking only on corners can be caused by broken spider gears, lack of sufficient positraction lubrication, or worn positraction clutches.

Rumble while turning may indicate bad wheel bearings.

A steady vibration that increases with the vehicle’s speed can be caused by worn u-joints or an out of balance driveshaft.

Clunking only when starting to move or getting on and off the gas might be loose yokes, bad u-joints or worn transfer case or transmission parts.
Right from Randy's Ring and Pinion.
