I would not change a thing with the way it works. I really feel there is a balance/understanding gap between diff fluids and the Edif action. My opinion is that selecting the right fluid for your engagement requirement is a necessity.


I tried the OE BMW (non-lsd) fluid, Redline Lightweight and Redline Super Lightweight. I like the engagement of the super the best with the ediff.
That is weird because a torsion style LSD behavior shouldn't change with fluid like a clutch style differential. E-diff behavior wouldn't chance either as it's using the brakes to bias torque.

In these applications I would think fluid is acting as gear oil and nothing more.
