The first time you empty the diff, beware, it smells like boiled fish heads and is black as sludge. I used synthetic (AMSoil 75w90) after that and replaced it again at 25,000 kms. The second time it looked golden and smelled fine, but I know that the diff heats up a lot and it is a cheap and easy fluid swap (with a hand pump).
