Important!

Risk of damage!

To avoid serious damage to the rear differential, it is essential
to use only approved transmission oils in the differential.

Note:

The oil does not need to be changed in rear differentials carrying
the "Life-Time-Oil" sticker.

Only change oil when rear differential is at normal operating
temperature.

Recycling:

Catch and dispose of emerging differential oil.

Observe country-specific waste-disposal regulations

Oil drain plug present:

Place oil collecting apparatus underneath.

Remove oil drain plug (1).

Drain and dispose of differential oil.

Undo oil filler plug (2).

Add differential oil up to lower edge of opening for oil filler
plug (2); if necessary, refer to  Technical Data for necessary fill
quantity.
