Hello.... I was getting ready to do an oil change on my VDrive unit and noticed a discrepancy. This summer I bought a '12 Mobius LSV and intend on doing the maintenance/service/winterization myself. I used to do my previous I/O and consider myself pretty decent with a wrench.
However when I went to begin with SAE #30 oil...I noticed this sticker directly in my VDrive unit placed from the moomba/ or indmar factory.

So I stopped and decided to dig further.
Both my Moomba manual

And my Walters VDrive manual

Indicate that I should use SAE #30 oil
I'm positive I have a Walters VDrive model RV 26D

Soooo what do you guys think? .... I'm leaning toward SAE 30 oil but can't figure out why molmba/indmar put this sticker on my VDrive unit that says to use 15W40... What do you guys think?
