This is more of an observation than a question ..
I 've had my 90 300tdi for just over 3 years now and when I "first got it I thought I'd go through all the fluids as you never know when they were last done
Anyway when I changed the axle oils I found the front to be much much greyer in colour to the rear.. I put it down to maybe the rear being recently done..
Well I checked it yesterday and exactly the same thing ... the rear is as clean as when it went in but the front is grey as grey...
Just to add .. I did replace the swivel balls last year . There was no leaking past the seals into the hubs and as far,as I can tell they are still good now.. so any thoughts
Only thing I thought could cause it was ,, does the front diff work harder than the rear as it has the steering wheels that end.. Or is there something else going on.. other than the colour difference I have not noticed any other nastiness going on ...
is this just a land rover thing..
Stumped ...
