hi guys , i bought a 1 litre bottle of diff oil 80w 90 castrol , is this enough to replace the oil ??

one litre wont be enough if you are draining the oil and planning to put in new oil. you will need about roughlt 5 litres of oil if you want to do a full oil change.

read the title - its not engine oil.

yes 1 litre should be enough - level should be level or to within 5mm of the drain hole - make sure you can undo the fill plug first before removing the drain. You will also need about 1 metre of about 16mm tubing to fill the diff- one end in the diff and the other end via the RH arch, you can not fill the diff properly otherwise.
