HOW DO YOU DRAIN THE REAR END FLUID AND WHERE DO YOU REFILL IT.
Loosen the bolts on the differential cover to drain it. Remove the cover and scrape and replace the gasket. Put the cover back on and torque it. There is a drain plug on the top front of tbe differential you can remove with the ratchet. Make sure you have the correct fluid and fill until it begins to run out.
isnt there one single drain plug on the bottom of the differential he could remove and a fill hole on the top? much easier than removing the entire cover. at least this worked for my gto. OP...make sure to remove the top fill plug first before draining the fluid. if for some reason its rusted on and you cant break it loose its better to be able to drive the vehicle to a shop then have it towed. also if youve never done this before its not the most pleasant job there is. the oil stinks really bad and it not easy to fill.
I don't see a bottom plug nor do I see a filler plug. It use to be there was 2 plugs on the back cover; one for draining and one for filling. Not this one. The gasket is leaking but until I find the filler plug, not much I can do.
The top plug is hard to see from underneath or behind the axle.
Really? Not a very good design then. Probably to help get some more money in the shop haha.
