OK have got a new icon "no traction" showing on the dash more than frequently now and a whining from the rear getting louder and louder as time gets on.

So what is the best diff oil to use, and is it a simple job to apply?

the 3M's has had some praise in here in the past. Magic Monkfish Mix. You'll need the right mix of oil/friction modifier as a lot of us found at Silverstone. As to manufacturer I can't really help, might be worth giving Roger a call on Tuesday.

yeah, I'm pretty sure its a GM additive that's they key. You use it to dial in the amount of slip you want. Anywhere from chattering around corners to zero grip and lots of spinning wheel action on one side only.

he has just improved mine significantly. The right oil and modifier makes a hell of a difference to tail out driving anf Roger knows how to test them afterwards driving
