Nope... I just went back to the condo and opened up my storage room.

It's for the diff.

Anybody have LE1605 (that new Duolec stuff... not the LE607) that is local (prefer east bay or south bay)?

TIA
You and your whiny persnickety diff can have a free bottle of LE607 from my personal stash if you show up at my door with you car.

Stipulation: Car has to be driven here.

Motul is cool. Don't let the bad bearing make you dislike the fluid that happened to be in there at the time it went south on you. Swepco has worked well in the past, not sure what my new LSD will prefer either

Ricks2k.com has it for cheaper, but since he is Maryland the shipping is slightly more expensive. But if you buy 3 or more quarts, Ricks2k.com is cheaper... but we are talking pennies.

The car will be driven... on a trailer. HaHa N*

Motul was what I ran for Laguna... so don't know if it caused the bad bearing, or I caused the bad bearing, who knows. Honestly, the best stuff I have used is the ATS (mostly because it was the quietest... ROFL... suchawhinybitch). But the LE607 was 99% as effective at 20% the cost.

That's why I am anxious to try the 1605 stuff... we will see.






CR-V diff fluid... some tards are going to read this and think that it's okay to use that. Hopefully it will be the tards I hate. HaHa N*
