I'm about to change the rear differential and the MT-86 fluid for the first time. Is there any special procedure I should follow or do you just fill both on level ground until the fluid starts dripping back out of the filler hole? I have a performance pack equiped 2017 Mustang Ecoboost. It's an European spec so I don't know if it's any different but I don't think it has the Torsen differential.
Since BG fluid isn't available anywhere locally, I was thinking to use Motul Gear 300 LS 75W-90 for the differential and Ravenol mtf-2 75w-80 for the transmission. What are your thoughts on those fluids for track driving (road course) and cruising in all conditions (even snow)?
The reason I want to go with aftermarket fluids is because I can't get the OEM Motorcraft fluid at the dealer or any other place locally.
Not sure if I should get the 75W-140 version or stick with 75W-90.
I just got back from a track day at Spa Francorchamps and it's been the 5th track day in total so I think a change is due. From now on I think I'll just change it annually.
