I have refrained from posting as I've wanted to see people's views on the matter and the only reason I am posted is for Trev. If the planet gears were broken in half as pictured would they of lasted 7 days in the car?

I have confirmation text diff was fitted on 23/04/2013 and a text dated 30/04/2013 saying diff was dead. I also have pictures of the last diff removed from the same car with snapped planet gears.
