Rear Differential Leak - TundraTalk.net

EVOL ARDNUT · 02-17-2008, 08:47 PM

07 tundra, 5.7 MOTOR with rear diff leak between bolts.

Stained diff fluid between bolts at both sides of diff. Not on ground. Other individuals noted it at other site so I looked and have same.

Anyone here have same or know If normal?

Does not sound normal!
Did you check with your dealer?

Mighty Putty will seal that right up!! Oh sorry....take it to the dealer and have them check it out. My 01 Dodge seeped from the fill hole. It was just a rubber plug. Don't even know what my yota has so I guess I should look.

Today rear diff seals replaced at dealer, will see how it holds

Exactly 4 months and bottom bolt of rear differential seal seapage again after seals replaced.

Not same areas as before, just one at bottom of bolt, obvious yes, leaking to ground, no.

Should I just leave this alone before they (dealership) really screw up the truck by trying to do it again?

13,000 miles on a 12.5 month old truck.
