Differential fluid replacement (non limited slip)
I noticed in studying the maintenance guide closely that there is absolutely no recommendation for differential fluid replacement for non limited slip cars.
Its very easy to change but without a recommendation there is no guidance on what fluid weight or type to replace it with.
Anyone changed it and what did you use?
ECS has options, but I believe they are all for the limited slip differentials:

Thanks for your time!

No answers....? Surely no one believes that our differential fluid should never be changed just because mother Merc. says so and because we have non limited slip differentials....
