And it begins... Service Rear Axle
Driving on the highway and I got this Service Rear Axle message.
No check engine light and the Onstar rep says my AWD system needs to be serviced. LOL
My fluid levels were checked at PDI.
What were the fixes for the others that got that light?
Update:
11/21/13
Dropped off the car last week for this issue as well as a few other items and got my car back a week later.
They checked the levels and topped it off.
2300 miles on the ODO and I got the message again.
This time I was backing up with the steering wheel turned and heard and felt a slight clunk, felt like it was in the steering rack but maybe it was from the rear end?

I'll throw it up on the lift tomorrow and see if it's something like a connector.
Completely forgot about that this AM! It happened this evening so that's not the excuse!
Hopefully it's something simple.

Too bad you got that warning message so soon after getting the car. Hope it is something relatively easy to fix.

Sorry to hear of your issue.
It gives you the option to "dismiss"?

I got the same light. Took the vette to the dealer. dealer pulled the rear facia did a bunch of diagnostic checks,checked for loose connections etc. Scanned diff controls got code C0393. Put it back together and said the code was gone and everythingwas fine. Since then I've gotten the same light several times. Called the dealer and he said they would call GM and get back to me.

This AM I didn't get the message. Hopefully it's stored in memory and I plan on taking it in tomorrow night. Fingers crossed!

What is your current mileage and your vins last four? I called the dealer to get my ediff fluid
checked and was told the TSB just changed to a recall. He checked my vin and my car #3385 was not effected.
Good luck and hope they don't have to pull the rear end off.
