Yes, BUT, only because I've had great success with M1. However, as I understand it, those who have used Redline have also done well. My only caution is to NOT use Redline Shockproof. I tested this fluid and it did not do so well by fluid analysis even over a very short term.

thanks for the info, im due for a fluid change in the diff... mobile1 it is. have u changed the tranny oil? if so what do u use

I've been changing my tranny fluid annual till this year. The tranny has been working so well, I don't think I'll bother with it this year. I've been using Honda's MTF all along.
Some people swear by the GMSM-FM, but I put that stuff into a friend's S and he begged me to take it out after a couple of weeks and have me put the Honda stuff back in. To each his own, I guess.

I also put a bottle in the freezer (-18C) to see in the morning how thick it turns out to be.

just finished changing my diff fluid. I had Mobil1 75w90 in there for the winter and about 12k miles. I swapped it with LE 607 w/ the no longer mystereous Almasol. Was surprised to find that it was purple I didn't notice this when looking through the bottle. The mobil1 looked pretty good.. still pretty transparent. plug didn't have nearly as much grey gook on it as after the 1st change (22k miles on the clock). After hearing that the 607 was much thicker than other fluids, I decided not to use just a tube hooked to the top of the bottle.. I hate this method anyway.. arms always get too tired. I purchased a $7.50 air/fluid pump from walmart and just duct taped it to the bottle to make an air tight seal. Pumping the whole bottle into the diff took about one minute but cleanup was a little longer

I use Valvoline GL-5ls 75-90.
It work's fine
