How to Check Lubricant
To get an accurate reading, the vehicle should be on a
level surface.
If the level is below
the bottom of the
filler plug hole,
you may need to
add some lubricant.When the differential is cold, add enough lubricant to
raise the level to 1/2 inch (12 mm) below the filler
plug hole.
When the differential is at operating temperature
(warm), add enough lubricant to raise the level to the
bottom of the filler plug hole.
What to Use
Refer to the Maintenance Schedule to determine what
kind of lubricant to use. See ªRecommended Fluids and
Lubricantsº in the Index.
