Afternoon All,

I am getting my bus ready for its next service and noted it's due to change the axle oil, can anyone shed any light on this? it's not the gear or transfer box as they are listed separately, so i'm thinking it's the front & rear diffs..

Thanks

yeah front the rear diffs.

Thanks Andy,

I was questioning myself when it said Axle Oil......

Time to crack out the manual again....

Have a look here;

Not all about the diff oil, but quite useful.

Got my indie to do mine at the last service,, half an hours work.. Hardly worth attempting to diy by the time you faff on and buy the oil,, which is not particularly cheap for the amount required. Measured amount for each axle I believe. 2010 RRS, TDV8

well if you have the big syringe
and have the tools to get plugs out you can do yourself

Tip hammer the socket on the diff, to ensure you don't round it off, loosening


AT least you know the job has been done then

If you can't trust your indie to do the job they are being paid to carry out you need to go elsewhere,,,and pretty quick! 2010 RRS, TDV8

It's just one of those jobs its easy not to do, as no one will notice

I will be doing it myself, probably between Christmas and new year.

Just need something I can use to fill the diffs as I have the tooling already.

cheap examples
