Post by: psnimv6 on 21 September 2007, 20:56:36

Hmmmm.....you need more than one bottle for the LSD.....I recommend BOA90LS from opie oils, its good oil and has the additive already in it.

the dealers when i ordered the what they said was 1 litre of oil so i assume it was enough additive for 1 litre is what it meant to mix to maybe but i ordered 2 bottels anyway so do you think this should be enought thanks for your interest

being to dealers today and collected additive (50ml)as usual they do not no how much to put in to 1 litre of oil  do any of you no if this is enough to mix in to 1 litre of 90 oil as i really need to top up my diff thanks in advance

Its 3 parts 90 hypoid to 1 part additive......hence why I use BOA90LS....its MUCH cheaper.

thanks for the reply i checked today and it only needed about 250 ml of oil to fill up to the top so it should not be to bad i put one 50 ml bottle in to the 1 litre bottle,so in that case i will try and get the other 50 ml bottle directly in to the diff , do you think this would be ok , and then at the next service (5k),i will buy the oil you said and do a diff oil change at the same time as it will be due a change as the milage will be 41000 and as said on here it will need changed at 50000 so it will do no harm anyway thanks again mark dtm
