2022 rear diff breather leaking (1 Viewer)

[Mubarak]

Hello,

got my 2022 79 dual cap and it's time to build my dream project, so I went with superior engineering coil converter after installing the kit I noticed some oil leaking form the rear diff breather so took it for Toyota dealer and the oil level was fine but I still can see it on the protection of the fuel tank!


they said it's normal cause of replacing the diff (which I didn't like). hopes someone can help.

Hello,

Check the oil level on the differential.

Sometimes mechanics overfill the differentials. The excess oil ends up flowing through the breather.

1. Check fluid level as Juan suggested, withtje vehicle on the ground. When on workshop stands or lift, the vehicle is not level, which might cause overfill. But that's mainly how they do it in shops as they don't want to crawl under the rig.
2. Disconnect the breather and hose from the axle and give it a REALLY good clean. As long there is still some oil in the hose it will continue coming up.
Free breathers are essential for your axle seals to last, too.
Good luck ! Ralf
