I have been researching and read Mobil1 is not compliant but it may be for cold temps.

To be safe and sure I'm asking for mid south GA & FL weather would Mobil1 70W-90 be ok in my G80?

I prefer something off the retailer shelf if possible. Thanks

 

Valvoline 75W90 synthetic is all I ever use pretty much.

I don't really care what brand it is, so long as the weight is right. The diff won't know any better and the stuff is like $11-12 a bottle.

 

i have been using that 75w90 mobil 1 oil for almost a year now and haven't had an issue so far. just happy i had a cold at the time of changing so i couldn't smell the stench that stuff puts out.

 

Lately I have been using liberal tears, so when it starts to whine, i know why.

 

How long have you been waiting to use that reply?

 

Any 75w90 synthetic should work, i usually put a bottle of linited slip additive in just for good measure.

 

I'm guessing Chucky Schummer was your inspiration on this! You nailed it though I'll give you that!

Thanks Guys.

 

Do i win any internets?

 

Negatory on that...not supposed to use any additive with the truck G80. Eaton Gov-Loc is a locker and does not need limited slip/posi additive and should not have it, this is backed up by a TSB from GM that says it can cause problems. Chatter, improper operation, etc.

I know it gets debated a lot but the TSB says it all. I can dig it up if you like.
