| Diff Oil I have a Jag LSD that was supplied by Wards Engineering some years ago - before I bought the kit. I am told that the oil should be Castrol LS. However this label apparently no longer exists. Can someone advise me what kind of oil (and how much - about 1.5 litres?) to put in the diff? Thanks Bob      |

| I used this oil that was supplied by my local motor factors. http://www.morrislubricants.co.uk/pr...v06c41q7p6=EKI Seems to work OK. Craig.

| Hi Bob Halfords don't seem to be much help for anything out of the ordinary. Another option is a local Jaguar dealer. I believe they may sell an additive that you add to standard gear oil. Craig.

| Clive Hope you haven't got a limited slip diff if you are using standard EP 90 gear oil? Craig.

| Diff Oil Umhh! EP90 or not? Think I'll go to my Jag dealer in Glasgow. I'll pay over the odds but will get the right product. Bob |

| I thought that ordinary EP90 Oil will attack the limited slip friction plates and you either end up with no limited slip action or you end up with a seized diff. haven't tried it though so I could be wrong. Craig.

| EP 90 is what was specified by my diff supplier. As far as I am aware the Jag standard diff requires SAE EP 90 and the Powr-lok uses SAE 90 From your post Morris XEP 90 is EP 90 with additives and states it is for "limited slip diffs that require EP 90"
