That'll be the rear differential being sorted on the DB7 then.

Hope it's ready for VMAX!

While it's out we're having uprated GT suspension slapped on as well, since the old shockers are shot.

Too much torque and horsepower for the DB7's chocolate diff! They are known to be the weakest part of the drive-train. It started to make clunking noises, especially when changing into reverse.

Have you got the full service history and did the diff oil get changed at 30,000 miles?

Yes, on the button. The problem is the strength of the diff. AM knew it as well, have you seen the size of a Vanquish diff eek It's from a truck!
