Default Front Differential Fluid Change DIY

Hi Group...

As I mentioned in my previous thread on the Rear Differential DIY I took some photos and documented the Front Diff process, and put them in my DIY template. I have attached the Front Diff process here.

These are created in the spirit of helping others. If you have a better way of doing it, knock yourself out...this is simply what worked for me.

Excellent write-up, thanks. BTW, your last comment about "if you have AWD" - er, you wouldn't be doing the front diff it you didn't have AWD!

Thanks...And good point! I edited the document to reflect that minor issue.

Hi There....

Yes, likely at some point in the near future, and will similarly document and share. I ordered VAP Lowering Springs, but they are not in stock. When they come in (hopefully next week), I will be replacing the Coil Springs....So that will likely be my next DIY.

So far, I have done the following to the car in addition to the differential fluids: (All since November )
Racechip RS Install
Aluminum Pedals
Created LED Growler Front Badge
Installed Yellow Wolf Intake System
Installed Larger Paddle Shifters
Installed 15MM Spacers
Installed Rear Wing/Lip
Installed Rear Spoiler disable switch
Disabled Auto Star/Stop
Installed Front Wheel Arch extensions
Installed Battery Quick Disconnect for rebooting
Applied Ceramic Coating to the car
Had the front and sides wrapped with Xpel
And a few other minor mods I am probably forgetting

Will document when I get time...

Take care,
DC
