Mannol Hypoid 80W-90 GL-4/GL-5 LS Transmission Oil, 1L

Mannol Hypoid 80W-90 GL-4/GL-5 LS is a high-performance transmission oil formulated to provide superior lubrication for a wide range of automotive gear systems. This 1-liter lubricant is engineered to meet the rigorous demands of both GL-4 and GL-5 standards, incorporating limited slip (LS) properties to ensure optimal performance in specialized drivetrain components. Its advanced chemical composition offers robust protection against wear, oxidation, and thermal degradation, maintaining consistent viscosity even under heavy-duty operating conditions.

Advantages

The primary benefit of this transmission oil lies in its versatility and high-load capacity. By combining GL-4 and GL-5 specifications, it simplifies maintenance requirements for vehicles that demand specific gear protection. The inclusion of limited slip additives allows for smoother operation in axles equipped with limited-slip differentials, reducing noise and preventing chatter. Furthermore, the oil provides excellent thermal stability, ensuring that the protective film remains intact during high-temperature operation, which significantly extends the service life of gears and bearings.

Suitable for

• Manual transmissions requiring GL-4 or GL-5 lubricants
• Axles and final drives with limited-slip differentials
• Heavy-duty automotive gear systems
• Vehicles operating under varying load conditions

This product may not be suitable for transmissions that specifically require low-viscosity synthetic fluids or those that mandate a non-LS formulation. It is also not intended for use in automatic transmissions or CVT systems where specific friction characteristics are required.

Key specifications

• Viscosity grade: 80W-90
• Performance standards: API GL-4, API GL-5
• Limited Slip (LS) compatibility: Yes
• Volume: 1 Liter

To use this transmission oil, first consult your vehicle's owner manual to confirm that the 80W-90 viscosity and GL-4/GL-5 specifications are recommended for your specific drivetrain. Ensure the vehicle is on a level surface, drain the old fluid completely, and refill the transmission or axle housing to the manufacturer-specified level using a clean pump or funnel. Avoid overfilling, as this can lead to increased pressure and potential seal damage.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the viscosity requirements in your vehicle service manual
• Check if your differential requires a specific limited-slip additive concentration
• Ensure the container size is sufficient for your total system capacity

Usage recommendations

Always dispose of used transmission oil at an authorized collection point to protect the environment and follow local regulations regarding chemical waste management.
