Hi Guys,
An easy one for you. What fluid should I be using to top up my front differential?

Cheers.

I used the Valvoline 75W-90 Synthetic. Seems to be OK after 80k miles.

your front diff uses the same fluid as your gearbox.

Not on an automatic. They are separate. 2 drain plugs, 2 dipsticks....... 2 different types of fluid. Automatic Tranny fluid is way too thin.
