Hey folks,

I went to part source today to get some oil for my next oil change that i am about to perform. While there i figured that i should change my differential fluid as well. I asked for Mobil 1 75W90 but they didn't have any but they did have castrol 75W90 which i was forced to buying as there was no other choice. What do you guys think??? I should i use this oil or return it and look around for Mobil 1 75W90??? Any input is appreciated.

I used the Castrol, 3 - 4 years ago, diff still works!

Honda... use HONDA Diff Fluid.

Considering that majority of us do not "push" our vehicles (at least I know I dont ) every day for long periods at a time. Honda Diff Fluid should be sufficient enough because it is engineered specifically for everyday use (temperature and wear).

If you are deciding to go to a track and abuse the vehicle, I would suggest using MOTUL .

Just my two cents

hope that helps

im using motul in my diff...can be hard to find, but its non shear and only the best for our sensitive diffs

So do you guys recommend 75W90 differential fluid or the Honda 80W90 differential fluid. I have read alot of mixed reviews about this. What do you guys think???

80W90 will have a slightly thicker viscosity. If you track I say it's ok. Honda recommends a straight 90W so if you're a little thinner on cold, I don't think you'll have any issues.

Both are fine

I hope that you are reserving some of that Amsoil diff fluid for me myflys2k.
I still see a question mark beside my name, but, I'll be there.

BTW Is this a rain or shine event?
Forecast for Saturday is rain, however, I don't put much faith into it as it is always a 50/50 chance of being correct.
