The v means viscous. It means that it uses a viscous liquid that sort of solidifies and makes the axles move at the same speed.

cause i change my fluid with 10w30 at the dealershit *i think* but you dont fill the whole diff with it right, like the viscous compound is sealed somewhere inside?

Yes, the 240 LSD and the 300zx LSD is a sealed unit. Meaning, the viscous fluid is in a sealed compartment. The rest of the oil in the unit is just lube for the spider gears.

why are you telling me to stfu? you are the one with the wrong information. take your own advice and look it up in the manual and ask a competant mechanic.

Your dealership should be burnt to the ground if they put 10W-30 into differentials. DAMN. Oh, and when will you learn that 99% of car mechanics are your average high-school dropouts? Don't listen to those morons, please.
