Thank you in advance.

You catch on quickly! :) I can't answer your question, but I can say:
Oil thread!!!

Look for the designation GL-5. If it has that, then you are good.

You should be ok with it but I haven't stayed in a Holiday Inn Express lately.

Mobil 1 Syn Gear Lube LS 75W-140 meets or exceeds the requirements of the following industry specifications: API GL-5
So it claims to:
Meet or exceed the highest level of performance requirements of many modern passenger vehicles – including limited slip applications.
It seems this would be fine just though I would ask the collective.
Best, Jon

75w-140?? 140 seems a bit thick. I've been using the 75w-90 for 10 years without any issues at all.

115 degrees out here at times... Just for the summer then I will switch to 75-90 or that was my plan.

Manual says 90w above 41F. I really think 140 is a bit thick but that's up to you.
