Diff oil ?

[Steve Campbell]

Looking to top up my 2008 R400 diff oil.

Is this the stuff to use ?

Caterham seems to be EP90 but I think GL5 (not 4) for the diff. Is that right ?

Thx

Ep90 and Gl5 are correct, plus limited slip additive. I use Fuchs Titan 90LS for my diff. It is worth syphoning out as much oilvas possible to change it if it hasn't been done for a while.

How do you siphon it out ?

[Shropcat]

Pela pump or similar.

For a cheap and easily available alternative to a Pela pump, get an empty liquid soap bottle and remove the pump action top, connect a longer piece of plastic hose, and spend about 10 minutes pumping it out by hand.

Empty diff and a workout all in one!
