So this is going to be about a 2000 dollar savings. I've also look for used differentials but could not find any because 335 XI have a very specific unit.I've been told by multiple dealerships that at 65 thousand miles like my car has that there should not be a differential failure. I have done some drag strip runs but not as many as some others. But it's surprising that the differential goes out.please excuse any typos or grammar errors I'm doing the voice to text function on my car

That is great news (Sorta)!! Hard to celebrate over a $2k repair bill but when you get there from the original # you were given it seems like a steal!
Sorry this happened.
Curious....what other signs did the car display outside of the whirling noise? I have it and I am preparing myself for the worst but hoping I'm just fixated on a normal sound.
Did the car drive funny? Any mechanical malfunction or just the sound? I agree...the sound can drive me insane so I get it.
