LS80W-90 Limited Slip Gear Oil High quality, mineral based, extreme pressure gear oil with friction-modifier for smooth operation of limited slip differentials Service Classification: API GL5 should i take this back as its mineral based and it's slightly the wrong grade? what effect would it have on the diff if i used it. i've read that some m3 owners use this stuff. __________________ E36 3.0 M3 Cosmos Schwarz E36 1.8 318ti Cosmos Schwarz | | | | Currently Active Users Viewing This Thread: 1 (0 members and 1 guests) | | Posting Rules | You may not post new threads You may not post replies You may not post attachments You may not edit your posts HTML code is Off | | | |
