Hi, how can you tell of your diff is going to worn out or not?
My car had 51k km on the clock, had the car since new and mostly on highway driving slowly. A week ago I changed my subframe and diff bushings and they realize that the right side seal is a bit wet( moist) not dropping at all, so they ordered a new seal(only one in stock) and replaced the right side and changed fluid, then I drove the car to do alignment which is around 35km distance and realize the left side is leaking badly onto the exhaust.
Does anyone know what is happening? The left side was perfectly dry, and after changing the right side, the left Is leaking badly

Thanks in advance
