REAR AXLE LUBRICANT
Refer to theScheduled Maintenance Guidechapter for rear axle
lubricant level checks and lubricant change intervals.
Your rear axle may be filled with an optional synthetic lubricant which
allows the use of extended service intervals. A tag on the filler plug will
identify the use of the synthetic lubricant.
Use only a lubricant that meets manufacturer specifications (refer to
Lubricant specificationsin this chapter).
Use of a non-approved rear axle lubricant may cause internal axle
component damage.
Checking the rear axle lubricant level
1. Park the vehicle on level ground.
2. Set the parking brake and shift into N (Neutral) (automatic
transmission) or 1 (First) (manual transmission) and turn the engine off.
3. Clean any dirt from around the rear axle filler plug.
4. Remove the filler plug and inspect the lubricant level.
5. The lubricant level should be up to the bottom of the filler plug
opening.
6. If necessary, add enough lubricant through the filler plug opening so
that the lubricant level is at the bottom of the opening.
7. Clean and install the filler plug securely.
Draining and refilling the rear axle lubricant
1. Drain the rear axle while the lubricant is warm.
2. Park the vehicle on level ground.
3. Set the parking brake and shift into N (Neutral) (automatic
transmission) or 1 (First) (manual transmission) and turn the engine off.
4. Clean any dirt from around the rear axle filler and drain plugs.
5. Remove the filler and drain plugs and drain the lubricant into a
suitable container. Dispose of all used automotive fluids in a responsible
manner following your local authorized standards.
6. Clean and install the drain plug securely.
7. Add enough lubricant through the filler plug opening so that the
lubricant level is up to the bottom of the opening.
8. Clean and install the filler plug securely.

(2)High effort to shift or noisy
transmission.
Check fuel pump pressure Insufficient full-throttle power or
backfiring.
Clean radiator cap seal. Clean and
inspect the cap surface on the
radiatorWhen the cap does not hold
pressure.
Check the battery terminals for
corrosionWhenever electrical power supply
has diminished.
Tighten the wheel mounting nuts
to the specified torque. Refer to
Servicing your wheels and tires
in theMaintenance and
SpecificationschapterRequired initially at 500 and 1000
miles (800 and 1600 km). Perform
again at 500 and 1000 mile (800
and 1600 km) intervals after each
tire removal/replacement.
Clean body/door drain holes At least twice annually.
Clean windshield wiper blades As required.
Replace windshield wiper blades If wiping the blades with a clean
cloth and mild detergent and
washing with a cleaner does not
restore a clean wipe.
Lubricate body lock cylinders Noisy or difficult to operate.
Check headlamp alignment Lamp beams in wrong position
when vehicle operating loaded.
Check windshield washer fluid
level; add fluid if requiredIf washes do not spray when
operated.
1- During maintenance and repair, protect the fuel tube and the hose
assemblies, the power steering lines, and the brake lines from the
external heat, the acids and the abrasion that could damage the lines.
2- Check for (free) linkage action and ensure that (return) spring
force is adequate to maintain pedal free play.
3- Adjust, repair or replace as required with the same or equivalent
parts.
