changed unless a leak is suspected, service is required or
the axle assembly has been submerged in water. The axle
lubricant should be changed any time the rear axle has
been submerged in water. Fill 6 mm to 14 mm (1/4 inch to
9/16 inch) below bottom of fill hole. Add 118 ml (4 oz.) of

OCTANE RECOMMENDATIONS
Your vehicle is designed
to use“Premium”
unleaded gasoline with
an (R+M)/2 octane rating
of 91 or higher for optimum performance. The use of
gasolines with lower octane ratings may degrade
performance. We do not recommend the use of
gasolines labeled as“Premium”in high altitude areas
that are sold with octane ratings of less than 91.
If your engine knocks under most driving conditions
while you are using fuel with the recommended
octane rating, see your dealer or a qualified service
technician to prevent any engine damage.
CHECKING ENGINE COOLANT
The concentration and level of engine coolant should
be checked at the mileage intervals listed in the
91(R+M)/2 METHOD
