I Ordered the differential service kit and I think this oil is not what it should be. Am I wrong??

75W-90 is what you need.

I've never seen it in that packaging but it doesn't matter, that is the correct product. Redline 75W90 is what I use for my diff. And it says "for Limited Slip Differentials" but you can ignore that, that just means it has friction modifiers in it to increase friction between plates for LSDs but its totally fine to use with our open diffs (as far as I know).

BTW my local shop carries this for about $16/ea if I remember correctly. $50 looks a tad overpriced for that kit IMO.

What are you holding in your hand. I'm confused. Sorry.

Exactly what my indy (BMW master mechanic) put in my car. You should be good to go with what's in your hand.

It says for hypoid lsd... that right there confused me. I'm thinking its not the right stuff. I have the stock differential

Ah I assumed those were just the o-rings. Anyway like I said the "for LSD" part is fine it just means it has friction modifiers which won't affect our open diffs. If you want to confirm it you can google that :)

Same as MT-90. But you have is for LSD. No worries. You can use those.

MFactory had me use 75w90NS for their LSD.
Got it from CarQuest on special request for about $14.

"ZHP is a garbage option anyway- just some cosmetic upgrades with a different cam and diff to claw back some of the performance lost fitting those hideous and heavy wheels. Any 330 with a 3.46 diff will smoke a ZHP every time. The whole Mafia thing reeks of childish behavior." - anonymous

MTL and MT-90 are gearbox oils, they're not EP rated for use in a diff.
