I posted a topic on this a while ago viewtopic.php?f=31&t=5167 it’s a common problem at big service centres where they just don’t care or poorly trained staff.
You state you only had the problem after the 80k service and the only too things they do down that end of your vehicle is (or supposed too)
1: Take the drums off and inspect the pads then blow out excessive dust, if they haven’t your drum pads can grab and chatter.
2: They are suppose to change the LSD differential oil and I’m willing to bet they have used a normal gear oil with no friction modifier in it, in other words not proper LSD oil. This will cause the LSD clutches to “Chatter” when coming to a stop after a long drive of when reversing. Simply drain it out and use good quality LSD diff oil. The Toyota LSD diff oil is the same price as buying it from an auto shop so you may as well use it (LS 90)
Always try the least expensive things first, and also the things that have changed since you noticed the noise.
