Remove the nut on the outboard side
of the unit. Then loosen the front and
inboard nuts. For the LT5 engine, loosen
the two inboard nuts. Move the ECM unit
to either side.
Fluid should be added if the fluid level
is at or below the “ADD” mark on the
reservoir. There are additional instructions
on the reservoir cap.
When returning the ECM to its proper
position, make sure the bolts are aligned
with the slots in the bracket. Then gently
push down on the unit. When replacing
the unit, be careful not to over-tighten the
nuts -just tighten them until they are
snug.

How to Check Lubricant
If the level is below the bottom of the
filler plug hole, you’ll need to add some
lubricant. Add enough lubricant to raise
the level to the bottom of the filler plug
hole.
What to Use:
To add lubricant when the level is low, use
Axle Lubricant (GM Part

or
SAE 8OW-90 GL-5 gear lubricant.
To completely refill after draining,
add 4 ounces (1 18 ml) of Limited-Slip
Differential Lubricant Additive (GM Part
No. 1052358). Then fill to the bottom of
the filler plug hole with Axle Lubricant
(GM Part
No. 12345977) or SAE 8OW-90
GL-5 gear lubricant.
