Hey Larry, I took the Pacer out today, in all the down pouring rain, wind, and winter road crap 
I don't have the room, tools, or technical expertise to change the fluid in my rear end so I took it to the local Chevy Stealership and let them do it. And guess what, no more knocking and clunking in the rear end

And whats even better ............... they got that #%*&# fuse changed for only the price of the fuse. I wasn't cracking another rib over that darn thing

If changing the fluid in my rear end would stop the noises, my wife would have done it a long time ago. Where's da plug???? ( sorry Mark)..............

As for what was making the noise, lack of Possi Adative, old fluid, I'm not sure but it stopped. Damage? No clue I guess you wouldn't know unless you opened up the rear.

I'm very "anal" about fluid changes. Any fluid, every fluid. Keep it clean. It makes a big difference. Now, if I could just find a way to quite the rear end noises . Guess it's an age thing

I am still wondering why you would take a "Pacer" to a Chevy dealer and what does that have to do with rear end noises?
