Help: anyone has whining from rear diff with pdk+LSD?

Has anyone experience whining sounds from the rear on a 997.2+pdk+LSD????

I have been going back and forth to my dealer with this problem. FInally they decided that this is standard with the LSD option with PDK, that there is a slight whine in the rear differential between 10mph to 60mph.

This is not the grind or crunch sounds that come with the LSD while turning. This is WHINING, and it is very faint.

Thank God the technician heard it. Usually they dont admit. I may have sounded fussy, but this is a new car and i need to know what is happening.. I just cannot believe it is a normal thing. If it is, i would not have ordered LSD. I think it should be as silent as a standard differential

Has ANYONE heard any such sounds? whether with or without LSD option?

does anyone know of a remedy or a solution?

Speak to your dealer and have them escalate or call PCNA directly. Got a video camera? Put it in the back seat and make a video.
