Hypoid gear oil for limited slip differential.
The container will specify API ( American Petroleum Institute ) GL-5 ( this is the grade ) LSD ( limited slip diff. ) SAE 90 ( this is the viscosity i.e. thickness ).
Quantity should be 1.85 litres.
Buy it from a decent motor factor. If you want and can afford the best, buy a fully synthetic oil. The viscosity range will probably be 75W-90.

You can get it from the Difflock shop. The fully synthetic is great. I recently put in my axles and trans box and can notice the difference in performance and mpg.
