The VIN plate on my old celica has a few numbers on it, including the transmission code (E150F IIRC). My car also came with the option (i believe, or it may have been standard on UK cars, not sure) of a Torsen TBD - on the rear. It has been noted that these cars either have 767 or 737 next to the transmission code on the VIN plate, and it is suspected that this signifies the car does or doesnt have the torsen diff. Can anyone confirm or deny this?
And on a second question:
We have a UK landcruiser colorado ('96). It specifies LSD diff oil though we are struggling to get hold of it. My specified oil for my torsen doesnt seem to be LSD oil, but normal GL-5 - does the colorado use a plate style diff and therefore require different oil, or should normal GL-5 cover it?
