Changing the Differential / Transmission Oil

Tools Needed:
10mm Allen Wrench
Drain pan
Four jack stands or a lift.
Suction Pump/Gun.

Replacement oil 75W90 about 2 quarts. About 4 quarts for transmission.
Two replacement crush washers.

Raise and support car making sure that it is as level as possible.(It is better to drain the fluid when it is warm so it flows easier.)

1. Using 10mm allen wrench, loosen drain plug and allow diff to drain.
2. Wipe off excess oil from drain plug along with fine metal shavings. Remove old crush washer and install new washer.
3. After diff/trans is drained, reinstall drain plug. 23 - 28 ft-lbs for transmission; 55 - 61 ft-lbs for rear diff.
4. Use 10mm allen wrench to remove fill plug.
5. Remove old crush washer and install new washer onto the fill plug.
6. Using suction gun, fill diff/trans to lower level of fill plug and allow overflow of fluid to drain off.
7. Reinstall fill plug. 23 - 28 ft-lbs for transmission; 55 - 61 ft-lbs for rear diff.
8. Double-check all plugs for correct torque (DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN) and wipe off any excess oil.
