FAQs

What does LS stand for?

LS stands for Limited Slip. This indicates that the oil is designed for use in differentials that have a limited-slip function.

Can I use this oil in my standard (non-limited-slip) differential?

Yes, but it's not strictly necessary. This oil is formulated for limited-slip differentials, but it will still function in a standard differential.

How often should I change the gear oil?

Refer to your vehicle's owner's manual for the recommended service interval. This can vary based on driving conditions and vehicle type.

What are the key benefits of this gear oil?

Key benefits include excellent wear protection, friction reduction, and temperature stability, particularly suited for vehicles with limited-slip differentials.

Where can I find the correct oil capacity for my vehicle?

Consult your vehicle's owner's manual for the specific oil capacity for your differential.

Is this oil suitable for all types of vehicles?

It is suitable for vehicles with axle drives, especially those with limited-slip differentials, and those specifying API GL 5 and MIL-L 2105 D.

What happens if I use the wrong gear oil?

Using the wrong gear oil can lead to premature wear, noise, and reduced performance of your differential. In the case of limited-slip differentials, the wrong oil can cause chattering or poor function.

Troubleshooting

Differential noise or chattering

Check the oil level and ensure you're using the correct type of oil for limited-slip differentials. Consider an oil change if the oil is old or degraded.

Oil leaks

Inspect the drain and fill plugs for proper sealing. Tighten if necessary, or replace the sealing washers.

Difficulty shifting

While less likely, incorrect or degraded gear oil can sometimes contribute. Ensure the correct oil is used and consider a change if the issue persists.

Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

  1. Preparation: Ensure your vehicle is on a level surface and the engine is off.
  2. Locate Fill/Drain Plugs: Identify the fill and drain plugs on your axle.
  3. Drain Old Oil: Remove the drain plug and allow the old oil to drain completely.
  4. Replace Drain Plug: Once drained, reinstall the drain plug, ensuring it's properly tightened.
  5. Fill with New Oil: Use a suitable pump or applicator to fill the axle with Liqui Moly Hypoid Gear Oil LS SAE 85w90 GL5 to the manufacturer's recommended level. Consult your vehicle's manual for the correct capacity.
  6. Check for Leaks: After filling, check for any leaks around the fill and drain plugs.

Compatibility

This oil is compatible with axle drives that require a GL5 specification and is particularly suited for those with limited-slip differentials. It meets or exceeds the following specifications: API GL 5, MIL-L 2105 D, and is recommended for DAF, GM B 040 1010, Volvo (axle/limited slip differential), and ZF TE-ML 05C/21C.

Care
