Factory diff oil with the Ford additive is fine but Nulon have a good option too. 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/89649-diff-leaking/#findComment-1514576 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fill it with 1.8L. 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/89649-diff-leaking/#findComment-1514708 Share on other sites More sharing options...
