Diff Oil Question (1 Viewer)

[1newlexus97]

Checking The Front Differencail Oil Last Weekend, Took The
Filler Cap Off And Oil Start Rolling Out With Allot Of Bubbles
In It Almost Like Foam. Not To Mention The Nasty Brown Color.

Anyone Have Any Idea Why All The Bubbles?

Water...is the pinion leaking? It could be a combination of a leaking pinion, water entering through the breather hose, and grease from the knuckle getting past the inner seal entering the diff. Only reason i know is because i had all three!

Welcome 1newlexus97!

Might recommend you fill out your sig. line with some of the pertinant info., particularly mileage.

You might keep an eye on this and read up on birfield repack. I had a little frothiness when draining my from diff. and it was time for a knuckle job, but my color consistancy was greenish/grayish/black combined with similar fluid seepage at the knuckles.
