A Quaife (or indeed any type of ATB) diff should not whine under any circumstances - they are basically worm gears which are effectively noiseless.  If you are fairly sure it is from the transmission, then it is more likely to be a worn bearing on one of the input shafts.

....Yep, I've recently learnt the Quaife shouldn't whine - Thanks for your confirmation  :happy2:

Am pretty sure it's transmission related.

Thread about it is here: www.shooticantfindit! [sorry]

OK, so i got these engine mounts fitted, hefty price tag of £540? or just under... and the wheel hop is just the same, i got to test it on the day but i confirmed it was gone! why... because somehow my REVO got reset to 000!!!!! no wonder it was fine!!!! shear lack of power!

So now i have put the settings to REVO stock not even proper settings the hop and banging is back... the banding isn't AS bad, maybe because the exhaust isn't banging around underneath, but wheel hop still present...

im extremely disappointed after being recommended to fit there as they would resolve it... i have emailed Matt so waiting reply.

any other ideas welcome...

might sound a bit obvious but what are your tyres like steve? seems weird you are having such problems with hop with all the mods you have on the car..
