This my choice:
Amsoil Severe Gear 75W-90 Formulated for the severe operating conditions of today’s pick-up trucks, SUVs, heavy equipment and other hard-working vehicles. http://www.amsoil.com/shopres/products/270px/SVG.jpg AMSOIL Severe Gear is compatible with most limited-slip differentials. If limited-slip differential chatter occurs, add AMSOIL Slip Lock friction modifier additive. AMSOIL Slip Lock Differential Additive (ADA) is formulated with advancedfriction modifiers and is designed to eliminate gear-housing chatter in cars, trucks and SUVs equipped with clutch-type limited-slip differentials. http://www.amsoil.com/shopres/products/135px/ADA.jpg |
I changed my diff fluid out a few months ago with the Royal Purple.
|
My ls1 trans am did not like royal purple. I would stick with the GM fluid plus additive.
|
Did RP, it does groan on the first few turns after start up. I may add some more friction modifier when I get a chance... no big deal, I bet it is stone quiet during the summers..

Try ULTRA 1 PLUS 75W90 GL5.

Here in CA I haven't heard any groaning sounds with RP. I say CA because it never really gets cold here.
I've never had good luck with stock fluids, especially Mopar. I boiled the dif fluid in my 2000 Dakota RT. I did drive around 110 for 2 hours on a road trip in the middle of the night. Apparently, the dino fluid they used in that truck would boil at 600 degrees, lol. What do you know. I put synthetic w/limited slip additive and never had another problem. Luckily they built a strong dif to take that abuse and live. I didn't want to take any chances with my Camaro so I went with RP fairly early in the cars life. |
I've been using OEM and my car is basically a track car only. I change it every 24 track hours, never had any issues. I'm at 10,500 miles total with about 7000 of those being on track.
|
My Z diff has the RP in it now, would use it again, no question. Not a track car though if that even matters.
|
I'm a RP fan but recently switched to Amsoil. Also switched to Amsoil Severe Gear 75W-90 this past season. I had RP prior and no issues.
