Beginner on this site, so I hope this query ends up in the correct forum! 

On my 3rd Forester, love them! However, they have a hard life with me! I tow a trailer (1.5tonne+) for my male voice choir. Already burned out a clutch. Ouch! 

Manoeuvring in car park on full lock reverse, I've damaged the diff or a u/j.  Every time I use full lock now it sounds as if a cog is 'popping' Any ideas what I should encourage the garage to check? 

No doubt an expensive repair. Any advice (and sympathy) welcome!

Does the sound come from one side only?  Or more central?    Very likely an outer driveshaft joint if it's clearly on one side,    Shouldn't be too expensive or difficult if that's it ( even if buying  a new shaft with joints).  Good luck.
