Gonna do mine this weekend..

So yous reckon either...

- Nulon 100% Synthetic 80W-140 Heavy Duty Limited Slip Differential Oil

- Penrite Sin 80 - 80w-140

- Castrol SAF-XA 80w-140

None of them need additive added do they? And all comply with log book specs? Cars still under warranty.

Which one do you guys recommend? or all basically the same?

Cheers Keelan

I completed my change on monday... 53 for the penrite, I forgot to get new washers which would have been about 2 bucks and don't forget to warm the oil first as its like honey when cold at 140w took about 15 mins all up

I changed the diff oil in my 430Rwhp BF ute every 50k with Castrol XA. After 174,000 the diff was still

quiet and working fine when I sold the car.

I didnt use additives in that Castol Synthetic Oil

A small mention, the first time due to the car being raised slightly in the rear, I know I over filled it

and yes it pissed out the fron pinion seal.

Cheers
