Bad Diffs

New front diff breather cap - part # needed

I don't think that's the part number for the breather cap - my rover is in the dealers now getting the parking brake fixed (again). I asked about it... they didn't know about that part #. IN fact, they did say they have seen bad diffs, but that they haven't replaced breather caps or heard of a TSB. To that end, does anyone have a part # or TSB number?

Was this DIY or did you take it in?

If DIY - what fluid did you use? I know the recommended is the SAF XO... I actually have 1 quart of the stuff from the dealer, and it says "special" gear lube 75w90 synthetic.

Does anyone know if this really is special or if a Royal Purple/Mobil 1 quality 75w90 synthetic will work?

I talked to a local Land Rover mechanic... DO NOT USE STANDARD 75W90 SYNTHETIC!!!! The Castrol SAF XO has an additive package unique to these trucks.
