Differential Gear OIL *TSB*
Hey all,
Just an FYI for anyone planning to change their differential oil.
I had access to 'Alldata' in class tonight, and there were a whole bunch of TSB's in there for the FJ, nothing about bulges though.. So i grabbed a screen shot of this:
At the bottom of the page it said not* under warranty.

Re: Differential Gear OIL *TSB*
So the differential gear oil should be 75W-85 now? What is the now under warranty referring to?

Re: Differential Gear OIL *TSB*
This is just an oil spec change right? What did you mean by "under warranty"?

Yes this is just a change in the oil to be used next time you change it yourself. I'm sure the dealers knows to do this..(same system they use).
