What lubricant to use inner CV/Tripod joint?

Post by espriev »

Tesla specifies 130 grams of KY Luber C.
I can not find mention of this lubricant anywhere else (most searches come up with KY jelly!).
It is clearly a special lubricant, if you have encountered it you know.
I have never seen anything like it.
Does anyone know what this is and where to obtain it?
The Olistamoly 2LN584 specified for the outer joints is not difficult to find.

You will be fine with any decent Molly grease. That's all I use on either end, never had an issue yet.
