Dackel, what's the benefit of using a thicker diff oil? Surely the one statedb BMW for non-LSD diffs will be fine? If it's too thick I guess you'd have poorer protection in cold weather because it'd be too thick? Or maybe it'd cause additional drag on the gears lowering mpg?
Whooa! Got it done! Carbon blasting and Redline D6 in the trans. Nice smooth shifts. No noise. OEM oil had 52xxx miles on it. Looked like dirty engine oil. Waiting for my tool to get here to change the diff oil.
