Folks,
I've found a few online references to the locking plate in question, but neither the internet nor Bentley's says anything about how to properly install the "securing plate" (per RealOEM, item 7)--BMW part number 23211490120. I'm in the process of installing my new LSD and the damned thing just fell out. I would've just popped it in and marched on, but I have two other diffs on the shelf, and said locking plates are both securely fixed around the input flange nut. Am I supposed to stake this plate (washer) or Loctite it somehow? Experienced guidance would be greatly appreciated!
