Default Lsd diff oil change interval

Bought my Reconditioned R31 3.9 / VL Turbo LSD Diff Back in JUNE this year
Done APPROX 5000ks on it now
I put in Royal Purple 140Weight
No Noise / Whine

What is the recommended oil change intervals for LSD DIFFS
This diff was quite expensive and don't want to stuff it up

Let me know


Cheers

Default Re: Lsd diff oil change interval

Most important oil change in a diff is the first one, lots of wear metal debris from break in. Always change your diff oil from new after 2000kms, there after change the fluid every 20,000kms, the OEM schedule will be more than double this, but oil has always been cheaper than metal...

Nothing works harder, and yet gets changed less often than diff oil.
