Default CR-V problem

Hi all!I need a technical suggestion regarding a problem with 1998 Honda CR-V,4WD,Auto,4 cyl.When drive the car ,steering pulls due to slipping differential and there is noise particularly on turning.I had a mechanic look at it who said it was the differential slipping and not the gearbox.My question is:What does that means?Is it possible to disconnect the front axcels,and keep driving as a RWD?Thank's in advance for paying attention,George.

Differential is inside the gearbox on the CR-V, so your mechanic is an idiot.

Actualy i haven't see the vehicle.This is everything i know.The guy just told me "there is a banging noise when driving and louder banging noise when turning, noise and steering pull came on suddenly without warning, vehicle not driven since.
"He is not a specialist,so the info is limited... I also think the mechanic is a jerk...But what is this simptom?

Possible broken CV axle, bad differential, bad rear differential, broken sway bar, tons of possibilities, you have to take it to someone who knows what they're doing and let them drive it.
