the difference is 4wd, as fwd clutch "must" be pushed in to crank

 

I use clutch switch to cancel cruise!!

Redline 75-90NS has worked well for me. Way better than whatever old fluid was in there. Shifts smooth and easy at all temps now, but still get a little of that bump you described letting the clutch out in sub zero cold starts.

 

had to look these up, this is the gl-5 spec without the friction modifier for lsd difs? for $45 a gallon? (my loyale pt awd takes 3.5 quarts in the gearbox)
