: Rich,
: After reading both of your posts, it sounds like the dealer doesn't want to service these "problems" very badly. I would get a second opinion from another dealer especially under warranty. Is this the first change for the diff and trans? If so then yes you will see some shavings on the magnet, but I'm not sure about the "excessive" play in the r/p gear. Here is a link that I have found useful when diagnosing problems with differentials. I have also called and talked to these guys on the phone and found them to be helpful in answering questions.
