    Just so you know...color of fluids has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with lubricating quality. Do some research on this and set your mind to ease.

    I believe that’s “severe use” schedule.

    Either way, redline is synthetic fluid that will be just fine for 50-60k or so. Stock full is Dino.

    Wait, is that what they use in the diffs at the factory? I always thought it was Dino…

    That’s not what they use for the diffs at the dealerships though?
