Actualy no, i didnt solve leak. The leak just suddently stopped and then i removed the padding from the hole and it didnt leak anymore. Then i check oil from both sides and there was oil. Company where i buyed diff, they think that the pinion seal was dry and thats reason why it leaked, but still nobody are sure about the hole, what it is. Is it tell tell hole for possible leaks on rubber o ring seal. Now im just driving and hoping that all is ok. I can post some photos of diff when i removed chem metallic padding

Please post some photos. I will visit my local garage this afternoon. We will check the leak. I guess cleaning and then a short drive might be needed if its not obvious where it comes from.

Tell me your diff story Smile? You do allso have tiny hole of bottom? And the bottom of diff is wet of oil? If you try top of diff whit hand everywere and there is no oil, i mean the place where does those air ventilating tubes come, which allows pressure to go away. I have one problem whit fotos. I work on silja line and cant get to car atm. Can you wait until weekend, i can mail it allso. Mail to me <edited>so we can chat abit

Tips, the litle hole of steering filter is the inlet, and bigone is outlet. connect litle one to new filter and leave to the old big one
i mean rubber hoses!

Can't see your pics (on borrowed laptop at pres) but the one at the rear of the engine may be coming from the breather pipe at the top. Fairly common fault.

Refunding

i have contacted the diff seller, many times. Finaly he well agree to refund me full price of diff which i have payed BUT! what should i ask refund price for the ORGINAL diff which he wanted me to send when i have changed " this new " one, which have leaked. i know he have earned some money whit my orginal diff.... Censored Very Happy. many times tryed to contact and no responce, finaly when i told him that im going to police whit this then he answeared and told me that there is no warranty because of long time, but i have drived 25tkm whit this diff and it has leaked from begin, but still he agrees to refund or change it to other one, but i have to pay work ours, which im not going to do. problem is that it leaked from begining but stopped leak after i padded it whit chem padding, and went to show him it, and he viewed it allso and sayed its not leaking, just drive hard... now after 5months it have leaked, and i havent watched it until weekago, so i think it has leaked all the time but have not wacthed it.

Looking now from uk, reconditioned, or new one + if possible included haldex coupling? what would be the price for hole set?

and how much will be the refund price for the old one, so i can demand the price from this guy...
