Thanx brother.

I only have 59000 miles on this thing... BUT, I hear you. Looks like the actual diff is independent of the two driveshafts going to the wheels. Wondering if D/S splines are the issue. Diff gears are big. Will need to take it to a pro, as I have lost my GASht to work on cars. Any other...

Diff fluid level shouldn't make it slip right? Maybe whine... WTF?

Thank you gents. I will post what kind of LS I have - once I figure it out... I'll have the dealer tell me when I get it reprogramed. Have been driving the same F150XL for 15 years... My plane jane LS is a dream!

I don't think I have a message center...

How do I disable the auto door lock feature? OR how do I get ALL doors to unlock once I put the car in Park?
