Re: CCFBG Membership... Curious why you changed the rear diff fluid already? I couldve sworn the manual says it's good for 50k MILES between changes. I know theirs no initial 'break in' interval listed in the manual for the diff.
I guess it's not a bad thing to do either...did you make sure to put a friction modifier in the diff too? _________________ 2012 Camaro 2SS/RS - LS3/TR6060: BTR Cam, Long Tubes, 3" Catback, UDP, CAI Intake, Air Scoop, 3.91 Gears, Poly Diff Bushings, Toe Arms, Poly Subframe, Poly Radius-Rod bushings, ZL1 Suede Shifter, ZL1 Mounts, Arun Tuned - 475rwhp 443rwtq 11.97 @ 116 w/ 1.85 60' Listen To Song Of My People! |

I know theirs no initial 'break in' interval listed in the manual for the diff. I guess it's not a bad thing to do either...did you make sure to put a friction modifier in the diff too? I wanted to get any break-in metals out. Yes, I used the GM part #'s for the lube & additive. See: http://www.ringpinion.com/TechnicalHelp/TechHelp.aspx#43 Quote: What is the break-in procedure for a new set of gears? All new gear sets require a break-in period to prevent damage from overheating. After driving the first 15 or 20 miles it is best to let the differential cool before proceeding. I recommend at least 500 miles before towing. I also recommend towing for very short distances (less than 15 miles) and letting the differential cool before continuing during the first 45 towing miles. This may seem unnecessary but I have seen many differentials damaged from being loaded before the gear set was broken in. I also recommend changing the gear oil after the first 500 miles. This will remove any metal particles or phosphorus coating that has come from the new gear set. Quote: How often should I change my differential oil? For a normal, daily driven, vehicles we advise that you change the differential oil every 50,000 miles. For vehicles that are hard worked, such as trucks that do a lot of heavy towing, we advise that you change the differential oil every 15,000 miles. The owner's manual says the Camaro SS don't have a differential cooler (not counting the 1LE Performance package). & if you were to track or race the Camaro SS...change your fluid every 24-hours of usage on the track. PS: I guess that is why the GM owner's manual said to keep the rpm's down to less than 4K & speed less than 130 km for about 2500 km, & not to tow or go road course racing yet. _________________ '14 Crystal Red Tintcoat Camaro SS RS Coupe Former G8 owner RIP Sunday, Oct 6, '13 1 of 3,681 in Panther Black Metallic '09 Pontiac Pontiac G8 GT (with L76 6.0L small block V8 engine & a 6L80 tranny) 1 of 970 '09 Pontiac G8 GT's in the country (Canada) |
