Description of the problem	Driving down our snow-covered street we live on, i tried to engage 4hi. All i heard was a grinding noise. After stopping i tried the 4hi switch again and it seemed to engage. I didn't think anymore about it until the next day when i noticed a big puddle of oil on driveway. The driver's side front axle half-shaft is flopping around loose at the differential, and all the diff oil has leaked out. Nissan says the whole diff needs to be replaced. Apparently a c-clip inside the diff is easily broken and it lets the half-shaft pop out of position, and as it turns and flops around it destroys the seals and diff case. Searching the internet on this failure shows that a lot of people have had the same failure, and if the c-clip gets stuck in the gears it can lead to diff breaking into chunks. No real fix except to replace the diff. Pushing the half-shaft back into the diff won't work as the c-clip is needed to retain it, and the c-clip typically cannot be replaced because the diff case is damaged.
