Diff issues...

Hey guys,
Im having some (possible) issues with my diff.
When I first got the car when I popped the clutch in a corner it would settle into a nice drift almost every time. Latley Im noticing instead of the LSD spinning both wheels, the inside wheel just spins by itself (like a car without an LSD would do). This seems to be happening more and more often, which is really annoying.
Mazda apparently changed the diff oil last service (about 5000k's) ago.
Is this a sign of my diff going?

Cheers, Daniel

Could be a LSD issue; change the differential fluid and see if the situation improves.
