I run the RB6 in MID motor config here in Australia.

Now I have had the problem in 3 of the RB6's that run mid motor,
No matter what we do there seems to be a weird noise coming from the car, anywhere where its under load, ie. Mid sweepers, landings off jumps, sometimes on the upramps of jumps. Now the noise sounds like a bird chirping or like a high pitch bark. We run our diffs really really tight as we thought this was the problem, tightened up the slipper all the way to try and make the diff slip but still no change.

I have tried MIP Diffs, Cermic balls, Carbide balls and even the std steel balls but to no avail. Does anyone know what this could be?

Almost sounds like a gear slipping or something rubbing metal on metal. My thought was even that the diff plates were slipping on the actual outdrive but no wear there also.

If anyone has a clue about this that would be great

Ben
