Choosing the Right Part
ATS says the performance of an LSD changes a great deal with the oil used, and the wrong oil can cause noise or poor locking. Its 85W-140 is a GL-5 mineral oil made for all ATS Carbon LSD specs, in both front drive (FF) and rear drive (FR) cars. ATS says lock response gets sharper as the oil heats up, and it stays quiet even with high initial torque settings, from street driving to circuit use.
Check your diff's oil capacity before ordering, as the oil is sold in 1 litre bottles.
Installation & What You'll Need
ATS's own oil change schedule:
- First change straight after the 300km break-in.
- Then every 3,000km of road driving.
- After every circuit session. If you are close to 3,000km before a track day, change it before you go.
ATS warns that late oil changes wear the final drive gears and bearings early and cause whine. Installation by a professional is recommended.
