'Diff jiggle pin' please, Hugh :) An amazing example nonetheless of
edge-cutting technology allied to the lowest possible cost denominator,
while upholding the noble British arts of compromise, prevarication and
procrastination while trying to find another equally effective solution to a
problem. It pays to ensure your jiggle pin isn't entirely free of
accumulated dirt, otherwise the rumblings from the diff itself can impede
conversation in the car and certain vital fluids are likely to come out.
