LSD maintenance schedule??

I'm looking at getting either a Quaife ATB Diff or a ATS Carbon LSD, but i'm wondering if anybody knows how long the break-in period is on the ATS LSD?

How often the clutch discs need to be changed (with mostly aggressive street driving)?

And how often the oil needs to be changed?

And do you have to pull the transmission off the engine to change the diff oil? Or is the diff oil like an additive to your regular transmission oil or do you replace your regular transmission oil with the diff oil?

Let me help you with it.

As for clutch type LSD, you will need to do figure 8s for 20 mins. You back off the gas when you turn and accel when going straight.

ATS carbon will require oil change like very 6000-8000km.

Other clutch type LSD, I change the oil whenever I feel shifting is notchy or when the LSD gets louder.

Thanks
Ben
