Question Differential Oil

Hello First Gen's,

I am about to do a differential oil flush on my '98 TL and I'd like to put in something besides the stock stuff. For those of you using aftermarket oils, what weight gear oil are you guys using and what brand?

TIA,
Slagboy.

In case anyone was curious, I emailed Redline to see what they recommended for our differentials. They replied by saying that they recommend Red Line MT-90 or 75W90. Personally, I'm going to try the 75W90 as the MT-90 appears to be geared toward manual trannys.

Lates,
Slagboy

Word of advice, never ask outside companies for Acura specific info! Always contact Acura. I have a 97 3.2TL and my manual says 80W90 for differential oil.
