Hey guys, not too sure if this is the correct section to post, if not it can be moved.

Can someone verify if this is the correct fluid for the transf/diff and whatnot? I have a 06' IX SSL. I only ask because the jug looks different from the site, so I am not sure if I am good to go or did they send me the wrong one? I ordered it from Lancershop; Mitsubishi GL5 LSD Gear Oil Diaqueen : EVO 8/9 . Thanks!

 

it's technically for the 6 speed tranny but it can be used in a 5 speed...most 5 speed owners that use it report smoother shifting

**IT IS NOT FOR THE TRANSFER CASE/REAR DIFF**

here is a link to a sticky in this section...searching around helps

btw that price is a steal this stuff is usually 80-90 bucks

so if I were you I'd keep it and just order the lsd gear oil from another vendor that can get it right...russellm would be a good choice

 

Wait, so I did received the wrong one then.. I ordered this from Lancershop; Mitsubishi GL5 LSD Gear Oil Diaqueen : EVO 8/9 .

 

There is some good info starting around post #6 in this thread about the two different gear oils.

And yes, you'll need different fluid for the transfer case and rear diff. It's shown in the link I posted as well as the link posted above in post #2.

 

correct, you did not receive the right item
