Default interesting find about tranny

Hey... just a heads up. I justinstalled a new engine and in my rush, I put castrol syntax tranny fluid in the tranny. At first no drama's... welll at least for the first 1000kms. After that, I noticed a weird tick tick tick noise at low rpm but it would dissapear at high rpm. I thought I had throwna bearing..

Turns out after I changed back to oem tranny fluid, all noise is gone. I'm thinking it was the lsd. Just a heads up for anyone who might be having the same problem!
