Genuine Apec · Part no. A3365L

Apec 80W90 LS is an 80W-90 gear oil to API GL-5 with a limited-slip (LS) additive, in a 5 litre can. It is meant for differentials whose clutch packs need to slip smoothly, where it cuts the whine and chatter an ordinary oil can cause, and it holds up under extreme pressure and high temperatures.

Good to know

Does my axle need an LS oil? Check the handbook: a limited-slip differential may ask for an oil with a friction modifier, and ordinary gear oil can make it judder or chatter on tight turns.
Can it go in a manual gearbox? Only if the gearbox maker asks for an 80W-90 GL-5 LS oil; this one lists GL-5 alone, which can be hard on brass synchromesh rings in a gearbox made for a milder oil.
How much does an axle take? It varies by vehicle, so check the capacity in the handbook; fill through the level plug until oil just starts to run out, with the vehicle standing level.

Which one?

For an open differential or a gearbox that asks for GL-4 or GL-5, Apec's 75W90 SS (A3015L) covers 80W-90 duties; where the handbook asks for an 85W-140 GL-5 oil, see Comma Gear Oil EP 85W 140 (HMG5L).
