D025304E05
  1. Stop the vehicle on a level surface.

  1. Remove the differential filler plug and gasket.

  1. Check that the oil level is between 0 to 5 mm (0 to 0.20 in.) from the bottom lip of the differential filler plug hole.

    NOTICE:
    1. After changing the oil seal, drive the vehicle and then check the oil level again.
    1. Too much or too little oil will lead to differential problems.

    HINT:
    If necessary, fill the differential carrier assembly with hypoid gear oil.

    Recommended viscosity:
    Temperature
    Viscosity
    Above -18°C (0°F)
    SAE 90
    Below -18°C (0°F)
    SAE 80W or 80W - 90

    Oil grade:
    Hypoid gear oil API GL-5
    Capacity:
    Front differential:
    w/o A.D.D.:
    1.40 to 1.50 liters (1.48 to 1.59 US qts., 1.23 to 1.31 lmp. qts.)
    w/ A.D.D.:
    1.60 to 1.70 liters (1.69 to 1.80 US qts., 1.40 to 1.50 lmp. qts.)
    Rear differential:
    2WD:
    3.15 to 3.25 liters (3.30 to 3.43 US qts., 2.77 to 2.86 lmp. qts.)
