Liqui Moly Fully Synthetic Hypoid Gear Oil (GL5) LS SAE 75W-140 is a fully synthetic high-performance hypoid gear oil designed for extremely high-load final drives. Selected additives deliver outstanding EP (Extreme Pressure) properties and adjust the coefficient of friction between clutch plates. This prevents stick-slip and eliminates the judder/vibration that can occur in limited slip differentials.
Developed for axle drives with and without limited slip differentials and for ancillaries, it fulfills special requirements of well-known vehicle manufacturers (e.g. BMW rear axle gear oil applications).
