Gear oil for differencial
Would be OK to use 000 989 28 03 Hypoid Gear Oil SAE 85W90 in my ML differencials instead of owner's manual recommended 001 989 17 03 Hypoid Gear Oil SAE 85W90?
Are these two oils identical? Thanks in advance for help.

I'm not sure where to search for this answer. I believe Fuchs is the OEM gear oil mfg. for Mercedes but no answer from them. Two dealers in my area have only bulk stock in 55 gal. drum and both refused to sell 3 liters to me. They want $51 per liter/quart if I will order the 001 989 17 03 but I have already 000 989 28 03 with same viscosity on shelf.
Any hint would help alot.
Thanks.
