Hey everyone. Time to change out the TC fluid on my LR3 and am looking for an alternative to the LR fluid.
I work for an auto MFR and we source all branded fluids from the majors like Castrol, Mobile, Valvoline etc. Other than Royal Purple I haven’t seen anything as a proper alternative.
Suggestions?

Thanks,
Todd

Hi Todd,

Why are you seeking an alternative? Price (only) or any other reasons?

First off, SKOL Vikings!

Second, Royal Purple was the only one I found. Napa was able to get it same day for me.

SKOL Vikes!

Yes I was looking not to pay the LR markup for the same product.
I’m currently doing wheel hubs, lower control arms, and F&R diff fluid change. Not wanting to knock off a Kwik Trip to cover the bill.

I don't have a link to the original post but someone did the research to figure out that GM Part 92184900 is the same stuff as the LR-branded diff fluid. I know you're looking for t-case fluid but given your day job maybe this gives you a hint.

Hmmm good to know, I’ll do some digging. I’m already talking with colleague who used to work for JLR. He is trying to get some info out of some after sales guys.
