MR_Loyale Posted March 1, 2005 Share Posted March 1, 2005 I have a 93 Loyale with the EA82 enigne and manual. I cannot find the specification for the type of fluid the transaxle takes. What kind of fluid do I use? How often should I change this fluid? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
85Sub4WD Posted March 1, 2005 Share Posted March 1, 2005 75w-90 API GL-5 (hypoid) gear oil is what should go in the front manual transmission gearbox, and the rear diff I think the spec interval is 60k, but you can let it slide a little Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
royboy159 Posted March 2, 2005 Share Posted March 2, 2005 Hi Mr. L----- I only change gear oil if it has that dark color, burnt smell. And very important -- don't overfill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exister99 Posted March 2, 2005 Share Posted March 2, 2005 I just changed my transaxle and diff fluids lastnight. I don't think they had been changed since the car was built in '84. They both had a thick grey metallic goo at the bottom. Put Redline 75W90NS in the front and 75W90 in the rear. The book says the front takes 3.5 qts, but it was more like 2.8. Do not just dump 3 qts in! Anyway, drove it to work this morning and it is silky smooth. Now for the next test: 4 wheeling on a soft sandy track at the beach! Redline rocks! So far...
