First impressions of LE1605

I changed the LE 607 in my differential out about 700 miles ago with LE 1605. I've noticed quite a bit more gear whine now. Did anyone else notice this when they switched from 607 to 1605? Thanks.

No issues between Mobil1 and LE1605. Do you have after market gears?

No, they are stock. I had been using 607 for over 4 years and could hear faint gear whining on occassion, but only at 50-60MPH in 6th gear while letting off of the throttle. With the 1605, the whining isn't as faint now and I can hear it under many more operating conditions.
