Review: Awesome Bottle! - I recently replaced the leaky diff cover on my 02 Silverado with a larger capacity cover that has a drain and fill plug. I usually use Amsoil but did not have the time to go to my local distributor to pick it up. I ordered 4 quarts of Ravenol J1C1109 from desertcart and received them in two days. It seems to be a very high quality product. I was pleasantly surprised to see that the bottles have a built in pull out 6 inch tube which made filling the diff a breeze. Time will only tell as to the quality of the product. I will determine that at the next service interval.
Review: Perfect for E90 BMW with open differential. BMW SAF-XO spec. - Good stuff. Specs are perfect for my E90 BMW 325i with open differential. I agree the cap is over engineered but you can easily remove the clear plastic extension so you can use a wide transfer pump hose which is preferred. At the same time, for a manual transmission flush, the over engineered cap works perfect....buy the synthetic 75W oil for a MTF. Car shifts easier...less "rubbery" as described in my Bimmer blogs. Enjoy.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this work for daf 85 cf astronic gearbox?**
A: Mustapha, unfortunately this is not recommended for the DAF 85 cf astronic transmission. The recommended RAVENOL product for this transmission is the SSG 75w80. However we do not currently stock this product. An alternative product that would work very well in this application would be the RAVENOL TSG 75w90.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Should have used the first time
*by A***R on May 18, 2025*

I switched to this after three months of a different lube, this is working out much better for me and shifts like OEM at a fraction of what Toyota wants. 2018 Taco 6 speed manual. Have the same brand in my transfer case and all is good.
