  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.
