75w-90 gear oil for differential
I bought this instead of 75w-85 as the price is 1/3 and FCP Euro shows it as an option for 2013 ML350.
Just wondering if anyone has used that and hopefully has not had any issues.

75W-85 >> 75W-90
I am going to upgrade stock to this *PAO* 75W-90 gear oil:
Rear diff PAO hypoid gear oil
Rear diff PAO hypoid gear oil
This is is the best gear oil I know for extended Hi/Lo Temp range and claims of "4x protection"...

I have the basic slip differential - This oil includes protection for the premium non-slip diffs.
So all right
