This is 3.73
sorry I took the ad at face value which said it was for a 3.0d clearly it wasn't and the sticker is not visible :headbang: unless its for a manual 3.0d

Seems that seller probably bought that in good faith too only for it to be wrong :headbang: given the value of e53s I can't seem many of those overpriced ones selling

Looking on realoem a 2002 auto did use a 3.73 diff so seller was right ,its just theirs is a later one like yours, might be cheaper to fit a pair of diff with 3.73 lol but that's more work and no doubt there would be some other issues crop up
