    Rear diff / Transfer case - front diff oil change

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Hi there,
    Im planning to change the oil on my my rear diff (final drive) and front diff/transfer case on my RS6. I think it is more or less the same on the S6.

    Does anyone have an writeup on this?

    -How much oil in the rear diff?
    -How much oil in the front diff / transfer case?

    Change procedure? I see a drain plug on the rear diff, is there a fill plug as well or is it a press in prosedure?
    What about the front diff / transfer case?

    Cheers!

    The rear diff has a fill and drain plug. Remove the fill plug before you drain it. It takes a liter.

    The front and center diff has only one plug. You need to pump out the old fluid. The plugs are located on the passenger side. Each one takes about a liter. Basically just pump it in until it flows out
