Differential oil change

That’s all you need to know. It’s super simple. Unplugging the sensor and filling up the diff is the only difficult part about this.

And taking off the weight so you can get to the fill plug.

For the sensor clip, use a pick and pop this tab up. It's a bit tricky since it's facing the diff.

I have a PDF from Toyota that's over 1000 pages (I think) with DIY instructions. I can send it afterwards today

[i think i'm good tbh, but] if that's no bother. i'm sure others would appreciate it!

Yup. 10 ft/lb. Basically a little more than hand tight.

The replacement O-Ring is only for the fill plug correct, the temp sensor is reinstalled without a new o-ring?

P/N for the new drain plug with O-Ring I believe is: 90118-WA263
