New diff eventually arrived from LR. Just under £900. £1,500 all fitted and lubricated and wheels aligned at my local indi. Took a day and a half. Gone is the terrible metallic droning/grinding noise that got louder by the day.
No obvious signs of damage to old diff, just wear and tear after 175k of fairly aggressive driving: probably a bearing or two breaking down. 2014 5.0 Supercharged Autobiography & 2015 3.0SDV6 HSE Lux Discovery 4
