Would like to know if there are any things to look for when changing the the rear end lube in my 1988 300SE with 149,000+ miles? I see the drain and fill holes easily, so I am wondering on grade/type of fluid to use and any cautions I should be aware of?

Thanks!!!

I believe that you need to get a special limited slip oil from Mercedes, but you'll probably be fine using mobil 1 85-140. Fill it to the bottom of the fill hole.
