The last one is in cabin air filter which is pretty basic.



Changing front and rear diff fluid. Greasing drive shaft. Checking if limited slip.

That was great! I've wanted to try it but after being told by my dealership in Virginia Beach, "We don't recommend you service this tranny unless it's having problems." I thought that was dumb but after watching this video, i'll change the tranny fluid when it gets a bit warmer. thanks

I'm looking forward to watching this. I almost started this project this fall and decided to hold off until I'm better prepared. The studs/nuts for the cross pipe that passes under the pan are rusted so badly that I'll probably have to cut them off and I didn't have any replacement fasteners on hand. Thanks for the link!

I'm going to drain the pan and refill come spring time. Do it a few times til fluid looks good.

Waiting for him to post part 2.

I assume this is same for a V6? It sucks that you have to deal with the exhaust piping. This guy is good though.

Torque wrenches aren't that expensive.
