Hi Guys,
I am driving a stock standard, un-mod FWD car, manual transmission.
Been using monograde SAE 140 for like 3 years but now I am feeling it's due time to change the oil.
Was curious whether this specially formulated LSD oil can be used in FWD manual box without any LSD gears?
Anyone also using 75W-80 for everday bumper-to-bumper traffic?
Could you guys recommend me an oil, which can be used for "sometimes" racing application to even short-distance drives?
Thanks guys
It is not recommended to use LSD oil for non-LSD gearbox. Furthermore, LSD oils are not more slippery. It is actually thicker than normal gearbox oil as there's more stress on the LSD.I am driving a stock standard, un-mod FWD car, manual transmission.

What I find odd is that your gearbox oil that you are using now has the same weight as LSD oil, SAE 140. Most normal cars use either 90 or 75W-90 multigrade.
