Lexus GX 2004-09 :: Oil Leak From Front Differential
I seem to have oil leaking from my front differential. The oil seem to be leaking from where the axle comes out of the differential.
View 2 RepliesFord Excursion :: 2000 V10 - Front Differential (Inner Seal) Leak
2000 Excursion, Limited, 4X4, 6.8L, V10. My right front inner differential seal is leaking. I have researched and found out that I have to remove the pumpkin gear assembly from the front differential to get at the seal.
Do I need any special tools to get the seals seated back into the differential? Any instructions or a list of parts needed?
I went to fordparts.com and entered my vin number but it makes no reference to the parts of the front differential only the rear.
Chevrolet - Tahoe :: Slight Leak At The Front Differential And Drive Shaft
I have a slight leak at the front differential and drive shaft. It is nothing major and I don't even notice a oil slick under the truck when it sits for a longer period of time.

My 7.3 has a leak on the front diff passenger side. It went into a shop for repair and they did both seal but the passenger side came out with a worse leak than it went in with. So just looked this morning and small pool of oil under the ujoint area on the concrete. Its booked in again to be fixed under warranty repair (place that fixed it, repair came with 2yr warranty) on Wednesday next week - was the earliest I could get.
Question - can i keep driving the truck? I'm making a wild assumption that I can unless I use 4 wheel drive. My intention was to just keep topping up the diff to ensure there is fluid in it. It's the work truck so wouldn't be good to be without....
Phaeton :: Oil Leak On Right Front
Oil leaking from or around the area of the transmission oil cooler (heat exchanger). This item is at the lower right front of the V8 and has 2 oil lines and 2 coolant lines running into it.
I've got oil in general vicinity and blowing back onto the lower control arm. I've removed the heat exchanger and cleaned everything thoroughly and reassembled to try to see where the oil is originating from. After running the vehicle it is very difficult to pin point the location. Looks to almost be sweating out of the cooler (heat exchanger).
Very likely the cooler or the lines but hard to pinpoint.
Phaeton :: Slight Oily Leak In Front Driver Side Under The Bumper
04-V8 - little over 85k. Timing belt replaced recently.
There is a small oily leakage in the very front drivers side under the bumper. Its in front of the tire and as described under the bumper. I see some hoses in that area from underneath and a bit of oil-ly leakage from under the hood looking down into that same area.
So, what lurks behind the front bumper in front of the driver side front wheel? The oil leak seems like light oil, but ... are the oil cooler lines there?
Are the power steering lines there? Asking because I did recently have to fill the power steering reservoir from suddenly near dry (as far as I know) so that is a suspect. And yes, I filled it with the right stuff (pentosin).
Phaeton :: Center Differential - Right Rear Wheel In The Air
Today, whilst changing to my winter tires, I noticed that with just the right rear wheel in the air, it was possible to freely spin it (all 3 other wheels firmly on the ground). Gear was in Park, engine cut
As I understand, the rear axle has an open diff, so the center diff has to spin too. Is this possible for a (Torsen) center diff?
I experience quite annoying speed related vibrations, so was wondering whether this might be an issue.
Ford - Explorer :: 2001 - Front Wheels Seem To Stay Engaged With Front Differential
We have an 01 Sport Trac as a backup vehicle and it has the 3 position rotary switch on the dash for 4wd.
The transfer case engages and disengages but the front wheels seem to stay engaged with the front differential.
There are no manual hubs and I really don't think it should ALWAYS be engaged like that.
What is the probable issue and ALSO can manual hubs be installed on this truck?
Someone mentioned vacuum engagement? but I didn't see any vacuum hoses near the spindles. Didn't see any wires either other than ABS...
Passat (B6) :: Small Leak In Rear Differential?
My 2007 3.6L 4Motion wagon was in for the 40k service. Everything was fine with the service, but they noticed that there was a small leak in the rear differential.
It's covered under warranty, but the troubling thing is that they can't figure out how to stop the leak. They are calling VW tech.
Subaru - Outback :: 1996 - No AWD Suddenly / Leak In Rear Differential
I have a 96 outback which all of a sudden has no awd. The rear differential looks as though it has leaked some. I don't know if it has a bad axle, or if this loss of fluid is the culprit..... Where to start?
View 4 RepliesFord - Explorer :: 2002 - Rear Differential Fluid Leak
The rear differential center section on my wife's 02 Explorer has a slow drip that appears to be coming from the rear cover plate. I have worked on the solid 8.8 and 10.25 axles but never on a independent center section. Does the whole center section have to be lowered to change the seal on the cover? If so, do the axles have to be pulled to do so?
View 3 RepliesFord F-150 (2009-2014) :: Rear Differential Leak From Pinion Seal
New issue this week - truck developed a leak from the pinion seal. I'm not sure how much has leaked out, so I would like to top it off before limping to the dealership.
From the manual: "Motorcraft SAE 75W-140 Rear Synthetic Axle Lubricant" There is also a footnote for friction modifier required for a Trans-Loc rear diff. Assuming that footnote refers to an LSD and NOT the E-Locker, should be able to top off with just the fluid, correct?
I am a die hard for Truck fan but am really disappointed with the overall quality of the truck. I bought it new and now with 30k, I've had it in twice to have rotors turned, once for transmission getting stuck in 5th and needed a new molded leadframe assembly, and now the pinion leak. All fixed under warranty, however really unacceptable for a truck with this low of miles and an easy life.

View 5 RepliesFord F-150 (2004-2008) :: Rear Differential Leak - Torque Rating On Bolt?
I am getting a little frustrated with a leak on my rear differential. The leak is on the front of differential rear-end just behind the four bolts you take off to remove the driveshaft. When you take the driveshaft out, there is a single bolt and the seal behind that is leaking. Here is my dilemma, I called my local ford dealership to find out what the torque rating on that bolt is so when I replace the seal I don't over-tighten. He told me there is no torque rating on it because I have to tighten, measure, tighten, measure the bolt. I was lost, I didn't have a clue what he was talking about.

2005 Subaru 2.5 Limited Outback. If I drive my Outback for over an hour, when I make sharp turns at a low speed in a parking lot my front end doesn't seem to turn right. As a I turn it seems like maybe the front differential is not working right, both wheels want to spin a the same rate. what could cause this?
View 10 RepliesGMC - K1500 :: Humming Noise Coming From Front Differential
Firstly the truck in question is a 1994 GMC K1500 5 speed 350TBI.
Ok so I'm not sure what is causing the noise I'm hearing. its a humming that I think is coming from the front differential but I'm not sure, maybe it is the transfer case but it certainly feels like its in the front end and my steering does seem affected while in four wheel drive. It only makes the noise while in four wheel drive.
I have one off size tire on the rear end and I'm not sure if the actual tread circumference is the same between the front and rear tires or if any of this would really cause my four wheel drive to act up. I am planning on putting a new set of matched tires on it soon, so if they are the cause of the problem then that's good news.
GMC - Jimmy :: Leakage - Front Differential Oil Level Not Correct?
I changed the front differential oil a few moths ago, and now it is leaking oil pretty bad from the axle seals. I think I may have over filled it. The level plug sits quite high on the differential, but that was where i figured i had better fill it to. is this the correct level? If not, how do i set the level correctly. I would like to make sure i have the level correct before I start ripping the entire housing out to replace the seals, and then have to do it all over again because I put to much oil back in it again! if it is correct. Then i have a big job ahead of me. and yes, i did check the vent hose to make sure it is venting properly. that would have been to easy.
