I took mine into the dealer yesterday and talked to them. They are working with the manufacturer to replace my diff with 506 from the 2012. Mine would start whining above 35 mph. The dealer said that the problem with rear diff is that the pinion bearing were made in China. The bearing were not all the same thickness. The assembler of the diffs assembled them with the same shims. Some bearings were to thin, which would cause the gears to have a small contact area, which would cause the whining of the gears. The manufacturer has since started checking the contact pattern of the gears which is why the 506 diffs on the 2012 models are not making the whining noise.

Those of you who have had the rear end replaced did you first notice leaks before the need for replacement?
