Just found out my rear diff is limited slip (via link to russian web site) also when one rear wheel is turned the other turns same way.Am i right to assume that only the rear is LSD and front is normal (2.5d 4wd)

So with an LSD, what oil should be use at the 100000kms change. GL6 seems to be hard to find :!:

Any decent motor factor should stock EP oil for hypoid lsd's. I changed mine but I have no idea what it was, just that it was EP lsd oil for hypoid diff's.
