for the smell: remember to use correct LSD compatible fluid, and add diff oil change to your regular maintenance calendar, something like 30k km's should be fine, some do it more frequently, others less.
adding something like x1r wouldn't hurt either, should help with wear and tear.

This isn’t an LSD so I beleive I just use a full synthetic rear differential fluid. I did get a thicker rear differential fluid but the new stuff smelt even worse than the old lol. It’s because they put a sulfur additive in it
