That'll be a fun call. Maybe I'll get to work early so I can get up
there afterwards and do it in person.

It as Jiffy Lube, so of course not. When I went in, I said to the guy
"OK, it's a limited slip, so you have to put this bottle (handing him
the friction modifier from Mopar) in with the rear fluid, or else bad
stuff happens. Someone else came over a few minutes later and gave it
back, saying "the fluid we put in already has this, we have to have all
the right fluids on hand ourselves, otherwise we can't do the jobs." I
heard no odd noises for the next 13K.
