So that's the go in the L319 diffs then?

Well the bottle itself says on the front it’s the replacement for the SAF-XO oil so yep. That’s what I used last time and my diff is still working fine.

Thanks for that, I'll give it a go....

For any without the E-diff you should be fine with any GL-5 spec diff oil - theres nothing particually special about the normal D3/4 diffs. Obviously the E-diff is a little different and you'd be wanting the correct spec to ensure the diff locks as intended.
