Toyota Genuine Differential Gear Oil LX 75W-85 GL-5

[Zuke]

FULLY SYNTHETIC LT 75W-85

 

I can only find this on eBay ?

That's what Lexus specify, but it's a ridiculous price. You can use any good differential oil conforming to 75W85 and GL5 - eg Redline 75W85, Febi Bilstein 75W85 Axle Drive Oil GL5, Fuchs Titan Sintopoid FE 75W-85 fully synthetic gear oil and other brands are available.

Thanks for that John, that's what I was thinking to be honest.

I bought the Toyota gear oil at £75 for 5ltrs but that was a bit different.

Fuchs Titan Sintopoid FE SAE 75W-85 Manual Transmission Fluid Gear Oil GL5 1L

This should be ok I reckon ??

Manual has it as 1.15L for the 2WD IS250 so gotta get another 1L bottle just for that 150ml !!!

Have a look at Opie Oils website. You can search car reg and it will tell you which oils to use where.

Prices are good and they have a question and answer service.
