Hi,

Easy DIY project. You'll need:

Parts:

Procedure:
  • Raise Car securely on proper Jack Stands

    Remove Plastic Splash Shield and Alloy Diagonal Braces

    Remove Fill Plug (17mm Allen Drive)

    Place Catch Container under Drain Plug and remove Drain Plug

    Clean both Fill and Drain Plugs

    Once Drained, replace Drain Plug - Torque to 25Nm (18 Ft./Lbs.)

    Add new Gear Oil through Fill Plug (Handpump and Tubing Helpful), about 2 Quarts.

    Then, insert Bent Wire, bend in downward orientation and pull back out, look for Oil level to be 11mm (7/16") below Fill Opening, keep adding Oil until this level is reached.

    Replace Fill Plug and Torque to 25Nm (18 Ft./Lbs.)

Differential shares the manual Transmission Oil supply, so no need to change or check level there.

Hope this helps...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
