A similar problem occurred with a production race version of the F6. (Thought it was just the extra 200ml burning off the breather but not so sure now). Has anyone fitted a diff oil cooler?I'm already using the best syn diff oil available from Mainlube $150 for 2l.Other ideas were a fuel filter acting as a catch can from the breather that can feed back into the diff.

Catch can is a brilliant solution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
