Any idea if you have limited slip? That actually sounds exactly like clutch pack material. My plug gets the exact same buildup. If you do have limited slip, that metallic sludge is perfectly normal.

I think I have some noise that sounds a lot like tires singing; however, I've about convinced myself that it isn't the tires since the sound is from the rear and I have the same tires all around. No vibrations at all. I've cleaned metal off of the fill plug magnet several times in the last 10K. It'll build up to about 1/16" thick on the magnet. I've got powder, small glitter, and some black flakes that don't look like metal but they are magnetic. I'm in Lynnwood, just barely. Probably 2-3 miles from Randy's which I also drove by almost everyday before I retired.

I don't think there was any particular event that caused the first failure, probably a manufacturing defect is my guess but it was already making noise when I bought it with 40K on the clock so I'm only guessing. There hasn't been any particular event that would have cause a second failure and I really do baby the drivetrain. I'm not inclined to go back to Randy's again since it seems their previous repair only lasted me 40K. Randy's is just a couple of miles from my house, so their location is a real plus for me.

Be sure to have Randy's Check for a bent axle. Could have been an initial manufacturing defect.
