Right oh folks im sure that a lot of you will laugh at this but I would like some advice on the best oil to replace the stuff in my LSD. My sport was having good fun kicking the tail out for a few weeks there but now when I go to throw her into a drift she goes part way out then the inside wheel starts spinning up. Im fairly sure this is an oil problem so could somebody recommend a good replacement that will help my LSD lock up again and put me back on the road to drifting glory?

its got to have an oil with an additive in for LSD's, I changed mine about three weeks ago and it took a bit of hunting to find the right oil. it was Castrol SAF 75W-90 that my local dealer told me (if iremember corectly) but as i could not find any of that locally i used a duckhams oil for LSD's. I believe it has the code LS but i may be wrong.

hope i have been of help.
