What a great vid! My ‘05 E46 M3 is in at my local specialist for service today, I’ve got some noises coming from the diff on full lock so have asked him to try the friction modifier to see if that cures it. Those are such cool ramps - I would have loved to have DIY’d this job but I just do not have the space. Love your channel, thanks for helping a fellow E46-er out!

Awesome DIY! I had no idea they sell friction modifier separately. But who manufactures the OEM fluid that includes friction modifier?

You got great tools

[@randysdiy]

it helps to get the job done if you have the right tools

[@AC-wl7ve]

can i just use a syringe like you used for the additive to pump in the fluid?

[@superdiver.]

BMW fluid comes with the modifier mixed in, right?

[@ChinTrack]

Bro how is your used rear diff fluid so clean? Did you forget to film when you did the drain and do it again after you put in the new fluid?

[@randysdiy]

no Bro 😊 when i changed the fluid the first time, i had no idea that you suppose to add a friction modifier in your diff fluid 🤦‍♂️
