Diff Fluid Change....

So most of us have DIY our own oil changes for the motor and tranny; but has anyone done the fluid change for their differential?...can someone help me find out what diff fluid and how much we need?

OT: but I just changed out the tranny fluid out of my SC e46 m3 and at 100,000 Miles, the fluid is still clear gold....and diff fluid still looked good.

If you done a diff service on an M3 before, there's no different on the Clk. Try to remove the fill plug first before you remove the drain plug.
