        It is (unless you have traction control), but it is a Torsen, geared type, not an old fashioned clutch type.

        As such it doesn't need special LSD oil like a clutch type limited slip diff does. Only standard gear oil.

                  Diff is 45,000km - Gearbox (if manual) and Transfer Box is 30,000km.

                    In every reference I have found, the recommended oil for the transfer case should be a GL4, whereas the diffs are listed as GL5 - a separate issue from the viscosity. I did some research a while ago on the importance of maintaining that distinction, and whilst I can't remember the details it was pretty clear there is a reason - so if you can get the different oils, why not use them. As said, viiscosity is a different issue.
                    2010 MY 2011 VR-X V6. Stock standard.

                    Previously 02 NM auto V6 Exceed silver. Extra transmission cooler & transmission temp gauge, activated rear lights, Impco sequential LPG system, Redback (Wildcat) Headers, heavy duty radiator. Lovells shocks F & R, Polyair bags in rear.

                    My original Pajero experience - '90 NG Superwagon, 3.0 V6 manual bought new and kept until 1998. Great vehicle, no problems apart from the noisy valve lifters typical of that engine.
