Honda does recommed a straight 90 weight.. in the S2000 manual

It was the Honda dealer I went to that used the Honda Marine oil for the S2000 diff.
Most likely because it IS the same spec as recommended in the S2000 manual.
I think I did posted the part#, I found it on my service bill.
IIRC that part # is not an official Honda Marine oil part #, more an internal administration thing.

The LE-607 pdf is available online.
The oil itself was "found" by RoadRage IIRC.

It does not hurt to slightly overfill the diff.
Jack it up at the driver's side, that way you'll be able to get just a little bit extra in.

 

k just pumped this stuff in my diff so im good to go Couldent believe the crap on the drain plug and the oil was so black it made me sick, i think i cleaned the drain plug for like an hour. Anyway stuff smells pretty nasty and is a nice blood red, but hey if it works, it works. thanks again guys for all your help

 

Anyway I just put in some LE 607 and I noticed today that the rear diff makes noise, not enought to hear over the engine reving above 2k rpm, but when out of grear I was rolling down a hill (dont really know why) I could hear it, I know our rear ends make noise but I guess I just want someone to tell me directly its fine. lol i dunno. Is this fine??

That seems odd. When I switched to LE-607 I remember it being quieter and smoother if any noticeable difference at all. Is it leaking fluid? Were you intently listening for it in a way you would not normally? Do you think it is in your mind?
It seems like it would be tough for anyone (even someone actually qualified unlike myself) to diagnose over the internet. All I can suggest is visual inspection for leaking fluid. Good Luck.

 

yeah ill check it out tomorrow. I never andomly rolled down a hill in neutral before when having oem fluid in there so I cant be sure. I just had the radio off and no revs and could hear a slight high pitched wine get quieter and quieter as i slowed down.

Anyway tomorrow ill check for leaks and such, but its definatly not in my mind....I think lol.

 

 

I've been running Le 607 for almost two years and everything has been good so far. I live in CA too.
