Do I have a Standard or a Limited Slip Differential - Changing Oils

[Turbo_Boss Lurker Find all posts View Profile Close Turbo_Boss]

Hey Guys

I have a 4 x 4 Toyota Prado 2007 four (4) cylinder 2TR-FE Gasoline Engine 2.7 Automatic transmission.

I want to change the Transfer and Differential (Front & Rear) Fluid as maintenance.

I was checking the Toyota manual and I am a little confused because its say that it use different fluids if I have a Standard Differential or a Limited Slip Differential

How do I know what type of differential I have?

Can you advise what oil type to get?

Thx & Rgds

What's the hand book indicate? Otherwise with due safety precautions jack up both rear wheels off the ground, unlock transmission, release hand brake and turn one rear wheel, if the other rear wheel turns in the opposite direction you have a normal diff, if it turns in the same direction it is a limited slip diff.

There's a label on the diff if it's LSD
