I'm going to be changing my diff fluid for the first time and I know this topic has been covered many times before. I daily my car and it never see's the track. I'm looking to get either one of these two diff fluids.


Amsoil 75w-110
LE 1605 110

Will I be fine with either one? I live in Norther VA.

Thanks

LE 1605 is good, i been using it with no problems. i change the diff fluid every 15-20k miles or so, depending on the driving conditions.

I like what I've seen on the LE1605, running it in my car. The only thing with LE1605 is the cold temp operation if you plan on running the car year round with some cold temp operation. The Amsoil might work a bit better in cold temp conditions. I only drive my car in 3 seasons so I don't worry about cold temp operation. Both are great fluids IMO, I'd base my decision on operating temps your car will see. I've used both fluids in my car.

Both are A+

I personally run Amsoil 75w-110 since it's easier to acquire.

You will be perfectly fine even with Mobil 1 75w90 as per Billman (that's what he uses in his own car and customers' cars).

Presumably, both fluids you mentioned are good, if not better than that.

I bought some royal purple 75 w 90. Im in illinois so temperatures get cold as f@#k. I called a local honda and they said they use generoc 75 w 90. Iono if i should stick to royal purple or get some mobile 1. Or w.e the f that generic brand honda uses
