MY05 JDM Sti rear diff backlash question **youtube**
Hi guys, after spending some time on the internet and reading through pile of post about knocking in the rear diff I decided to ask you about the backlas, I've been told by a Subaru specialist where I took a car for check up that it's normal and there is nothing to worry about, what's your thoughts?? There is about 5-6mm play on the rear diff, here's the link to the youtube where you can see what I'm talking about. Thanks

If you have the wrong gear oil in the diff the clunk can be louder ie 75/90 and changed to the right 90ls oil be it fuchs or mutual what its says in Jdm owners manual for rear diff and the clunk is very quiet now .

It's a road use car, unfortunately I can't read japanese so owner manual didn't gave me info on what oil to use but I read here that 75w/90 will be ok to use on cars with dccd unles there's difference ilbetween jdm and uk dccd cars?
So what grade should I use for jdm dccd to reduce the clunk?
Thanks
