Hello,
I have my Drexler LSD installed in a slightly used rear axle coming out from Drexler and given the fact that my rear axle pinions failed once, I would like to extend its life this time, if possible. So I have some questions:
- Is a break-in procedure necessary, like doing some 8-figures with the car at slow speed ?
- Is an oil change necessary after break-in ?
- What is the optimal oil replacement interval (if any) ?
- Should I reduce the torque at lower RPMs via tuning ? I have pretty good experience in tuning the N54 engine and I can do my own maps. Right now I have the engine tuned to max torque from lower RPMs, but I suspect that this is quite detrimental to the rear axle lifespan.
Thanks !
