Rear Axle

When to Check Lubricant
It is not necessary to regularly
check rear axle fluid unless a leak is
suspected or an unusual noise is
heard. A fluid loss could indicate a
problem. Have it inspected and
repaired.
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 fill plug hole, some lubricant will
need to be added. Add enough
lubricant to raise the level to the
bottom of the fill plug hole.
Vehicle Care
What to Use
To add lubricant when the level is
low or to completely refill after
draining, see Recommended Fluids
and Lubricants on page 11-12. Then
fill to the bottom of the fill plug hole
with the required lubricant.
