Alex Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 Diff oil : Silkolene Syn5; Motul Gear300 It's as easy as doing the gearbox oil - take out the fill hole bolt...take out the drain plug bolt...drain...put the drain back in and fill it up.

AJI Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 How often should diff oil be changed? Mines been in there for two years now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 errr every year or every 5k i believe Errr nothing like! Diff oil is not engine oil. It's in a sealed box and not exposed to contamination - it should only "need" replacing if it's been over heated. Id happily leave mine in for 40,000miles if I'm just doing normal driving. If you track day your car I'd porbably change it once a year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
