I think the stuff you need is called "Castol Hypoy LS" or equivalent.

Re: powerlok diff oil

I got mine from a Subaru dealer.They use a High quality LSD oil and I've had no probs.Besides pouring it in the cold, as it is as thick as treacle.

Re: powerlok diff oil

My local motor factor supplied me with Valvoline synpower GL-4/5 TDL, sae 75W-90. as the replacement for whatever the Jag book said.
Is this any good or have I made yet another boob in my stream of mistakes?

Tony
