So, I got the 50k kilometer service done yesterday at the dealer (their prices are good and I have a good relationship with them). Beyond the typical oil and filter changes and usual brake pad and disc wear checks, gearchange was feeling stiff so gearbox oil was changed, and a level check on the rear differential showed it to be low so it was drained and refilled as well. That being said, it feels noticeably sluggish now. It would usually gain speed briskly enough once the boost pressure from the turbo spooling hit peak at around 1750 rpm, but now it feels like it's dragging a trailer well into 2200rpm. I'm thinking they either mucked things up with the wrong spec differential lubrication, or there's a clearance issue with the brake pads (though they weren't overtly hot after a drive so I'm less inclined to think that). From what I can gather from the owners manual, the proper spec lube for the diff is SAE75 Tutela Transmission Gearforce, though it does not indicate if this is also true for the rear diff it just says mechanical gearbox and differential. Also, either I don't have the 4x4 supplementary handbook, or the 2012-onward didn't come with one so I'm going by the information at hand.
Am I just being paranoid, or is this worth looking into further, and if so am I looking in the right direction considering it would be hard to much up anything other than this on a routine service?
