DIFFERENTIAL OIL REPLACEMENT

PROCEDURE


  1. DRAIN DIFFERENTIAL OIL


    1. Stop the vehicle on a level place.

    2. A01XBFZ

      for Front Differential:


      1. Remove the engine under cover.

      2. Using a 10 mm hexagon wrench, remove the filler plug and gasket.

      3. Using a 10 mm hexagon wrench, remove the drain plug and gasket, and drain the oil.

      4. Using a 10 mm hexagon wrench, install a new gasket and the drain plug.

        Torque:
        39 N*m  { 400 kgf*cm, 29 ft.*lbf }
    3. for Rear Differential:


      1. Remove the filler plug and gasket.

      2. Remove the drain plug and gasket, and drain the oil.

      3. Install a new gasket and the drain plug.

        Torque:
        49 N*m  { 500 kgf*cm, 36 ft.*lbf }
  2. ADD DIFFERENTIAL OIL


    1. A01X3Z7E76
      *1 0 to 5 mm

      Add differential oil so that the oil level is between 0 to 5 mm (0 to 0.197 in.) from the bottom lip of the differential filler plug hole.

      Note


      • Too much or too little oil will lead to differential problems.

      • After changing the oil, drive the vehicle and then check the oil level again.
