Diff oil
Changed the oil in my rear differential today (non-electronic) I used fully synthetic 75W-90 GL5 gear oil as recommended in this forum. The drain plug magnet was clean, only a tint bit of sludge, the old oil was clean, but it was definitely thicker then the 75W-90 , more like an old style EP80 or EP90, smelt like that too.
Front diff filler plug was all mullered up, so I decided to order a new filler and drain plug and attack that another day.
