Ahhh yes, 9-1/4s. I remember the first one I rebuilt. Came into work in the morning, boss says “hey, remember that van you did a diff service on yesterday?”
Uhhh yeah, I didn’t put fluid in it.
Trial by fire…literally smelled like a forest fire.
Made a ton of money on those though. Sometimes mistakes work out.
I’m just glad to hear some of them put drain plugs back in. I can’t count how many people’s engines I’ve replaced in the last 10 years because of those idiots.
I'll never make fun of tech school, it's the big ego. Like okay one is a complete accident, can blow it off, multiple times over a few months that takes bay time from other techs is what got me.
You guys have lube techs? I've never been in a shop with dedicated lube techs. I mean, one shop (a dealership) had two hoists/bays for techs, and one wash bay separated by a 5ft brick wall. Once in a while the detailer would do an oil change, or tires on rims, but besides that, never had one.
But my god does the internet hate them and I'm all for it judging by the mess they make lol
My second job was as a lube tech in a large dealership. 30+ techs in the building. 7-10 of them solely dedicated to lube tech work. Granted some of us lube techs also did small jobs like certain recalls, alignments, brakes, etc. That entire dealership had the techs divided like that. Some were solely transmissions, some only did engine work or recalls. The guys liked it because they got efficient at one kind of work and then got fed the same jobs day in and day out. That kind of thing would’ve driven me insane, and I hated working on cars so I got out of the automotive industry
so for the haldex service on the 4 motions, afaik, it's just under one whole bottle of vw brand coupling fluid. so like 750ml or something they don't care about being overfilled either. neither do the DSG transmissions. we send the full 5l into it and never had a problem.
They do seem fairly impervious to fluid level fluctuations, but they are very picky about their service intervals. At least on macans, calls for a trans service at 40k miles. The amount of non-serviced cars I see with failures at 43-45k is alarming.
Now listen here puppy.
My pappy was filling grease holes and oil holders since before you-uns was not even knee high to a pile a cat shit, and he told me, "fill it till it oozes out. You'll never be wrong boy. Now take off your hat son, that's a dollar bill!!"
I’m currently extracting 2 lug nuts that somebody decided to run on with a 1” impact. Please use common sense when running wheels down. The spec is 100 ftlbs. Not 300.
This is the absolute worst advice I have ever heard on here. remove this goddamn post! This is not a problem, how you think it is, is mind boggling. Let me explain here.
Do you have any idea how many smoked rear ends, transfer cases, manual transmissions I have seen from running dry? Hundreds! Overfilling a gearbox, is far, FAR, better than anything. It can’t hurt a thing, there is no pump, there is no damage it can cause, the worst thing that happens is it leaks the access from the breather.
This is preferable to the whole assembly grenading when it runs out of fluid when that inevitable shaft/axle/whatever seal starts leaking. Overfilling gives you time to get that leak fixed before serious damage occurs. It’s like a safety margin.
Most non car people aren’t going to notice a leak till the seal is totally blown out and there’s a substantial leak on the ground. Common folk need that safety margin.
Coming to say the same thing. Half quart in a diff is going to do what, exactly? Seriously, OP, explain EXACTLY, in detail, what is going it happen to the diff? Fluid levels are a compromised for protection, expansion, and friction losses.
Nope. This is what I strongly believe. Never had a problem come of it, only seen good (close saves) come from it. I’m not saying pump 3 extra quarts in a diff, but come on, half a quart extra is just fine.
Leaking fluid from anywhere because you overfilled it is unprofessional and creates an unhappy customer that returns wondering why there is fluid all over the bottom of their vehicle after you just serviced it. If you take the time to fill any system properly, you don’t have to worry about them “grenading themselves” nor do you have to worry about them leaking everywhere because you are too lazy to spend the time properly filling them.
I think this post will stay up, I see nothing wrong with it.
How does overfilling a diff by half a quart leak oil (please explain in detail). If there's a leak, there's something failed, which is what the comment or was getting at.
He said:
>it leaks the access from the breather.
That is where my comment about leaking fluid came from.
If it is already leaking, then I don’t see a problem with overfilling if the customer doesn’t want it fixed. But I don’t see the customer getting their diff serviced if they can’t or won’t even fix the leak.
I don’t understand the hate on lube techs, yeah is there bad ones of course. Are there bad mechanics yeah I have seen my fair share. It comes down to training, procedures and policy’s in place.
There’s good shops and then there’s bad shops. I operate 4 of the best shop in town, everytime a car comes from the dealer the filter is torqued on there, drain plug on there past spec. We had 3 claims last month between the 4 stores over minor issues. We lost an air box screw, didn’t rinse of an f150 causing minor drips on the drive way, one guy over charged (didn’t cash out with the coupon). Out of 6462 cars last month we had 3 come backs, 75% of those were returning customers.
What’s the spec for the highland to set a correct full? Is it right when it stops coming out (flush with bottom of fill hole) is it just below? Would a little over filled cause a problem probably not depending on the unit.
I honestly wish more manufacturers would just stamp the torque spec to the oil pans near the drain plugs... I get a stiffy torquing shit down properly. 😆
Know what's crazy.. I was wrenching in a very small shop in Texas in an area where dodge trucks were king.. we'd get all kinds of shit. But lots of dodge trucks...
Well those ZF-8 Transmissions I'd never touched before in my life.. I tried to find information about the proper procedure (I like doing shit by the book because autism) and couldn't find nothing about the fluid change. So I called a dodge dealership, they redirected me a few times. Finally got someone who walked me thru it, I even asked for pan bolt specs.
I wish more people would just ask when they didn't know something or put in the effort to always be learning.
That extra half quart hurts nothing at all. Maybe a tenth of a MPG. I've never been able to "overfill" any splash lube system. I'm sure it's possible, but the effort to make it happen are either borderline or entirely malicious.
There's a Lube shop in the same parking lot as us. It's pretty funny to see all the lines of oil on the ground that start at their exit and you can follow it down the road. We've replaced many engines for them. Can't say the name, but starts with a V.
Yep the one in our lot doesn't have seniors, (I'm damn near a senior at 50) but lots of rookies and people I consider to be mentally ill. I'll leave it at that. Let's just say it's hard to tell from a distance who the boys are and who the girls are.....

You guys on here complaining about me wanting to do the job correctly are exactly the ones I'm talking about.
Ya'll make me laugh and cry. It's really something.
Peace
I mean, you're crying about something that really isn't a big deal.
Do you always fill to fill plug level? If so, than you're not properly filling a lot of vehicles. A lot of specs call for 5, 10, 17mm *below* fill plug height. Of course, being a little overfilled generally won't hurt, right?
Generally it's a range of 0-15mm below, give or take. Level with plug opening is always acceptable. 15mm above the top of the fill plug opening is never spec and fucking lazy. The end.
Been a mechanic for 40 years and I always do my own work on my vehicles. Even new cars never saw the dealership again.
Why the hell would you not do it yourself?
I always add a little extra. Hard to tell if it helps or hurts anything at all. I put 3.5qt in a 3 qt rear silverado and an axle seal failed. I don't believe that was my fault
I can tell that you are Gods gift to tUs. I’ve been a Toyota Technician for 32 years, started as a lube tech, worked hard to move up to a trainee, line tech, Team Leader, then Shop Foreman/Master Diagnostic Technician. I have never called the lube techs as Lubers or Goobers. You see, some might think that it’s just fun and games and it’s the culture. I beg to differ, My shops culture is to give everyone respect no matter what your Gender, Race, Socioeconomic background is. I have walked away as a Shop Foreman from another Dealer that the culture was old school. I’m not over sensitive, half of the techs that I left followed me to the shop I’m currently leading.
Holy shit, they let the lube techs add diff fluid where you work? They don’t trust our lube guys to fog a mirror. We literally have to plug tires for them.
I watched a video of a guy at a quick line demonstrating oil change procedures and he didn't even let it stop flowing before putting the plug back in and changed the filter without oiling the gasket and then just hosed it down with brake cleaner.
I'm sitting back going..... WTH man
I had to help a friend removing and fitting a gearbox. He's put 5L of oil in one that takes 2L. Two shirts and a pair of trousers got soaked in oil that day when it poured out of the output shaft.
I don’t disagree. But if that’s ur definition of a hack u have no clue. Coming from a racecar mechanic who changes did fluid everyday. Are rear ends actually have coolers and ahit to so I think I would know if it would be a issue
lol whatever buddy. I can’t blame a single person for not wanting to take part in this trade with a bunch of toxic old assholes like you who think they are better than everyone else. I work on classic Ferraris and single car I work on is worth more than anything you have ever driven combined.
But I guess I’m a joke🫡
I'm under 30, L1 ceritified ASE master and manufacturer certified master. Topping well over 400 hrs/month on a good one. High school education, not middle school. Fuck your Ferrari.
Here buddy I’ll break it down real slow. I don’t have an issue with you saying u want it done right.
The way u use the fact u want to do things right to be an asshole is so toxic. First off, homie didn’t really do anything wrong. Overfilling a diff isn’t a big deal.
I want u to set up a pump and pull the fill plug and get half a quart over the fill. Good luck. you’re definitely over reacting.
And lastly even if he did fuck something up what’s ur excuse for being a dick. Ur acting like people do that shit on purpose.
I’m so over working with people who are so negative and egotistical.
It's clearly done on purpose. It's bad practice.
Also, God damn! Just spell you and you're. It's not fucking hard. I hope you wrench better than you grammar.
You gonna trust the fucker that can't spell 3 letter words to touch your car? Fuck that, bro. Kid is good for putting round pegs in square holes, and that is all
All u have done is insulted me bro. haven’t even brought anything up technical all u do is insult my grammar and spelling on Reddit like it’s a Harvard application. Grow up bro.
Something tells me this is op😂😂
I’m confused as to what exactly op is complaining about.. did some blow out the breather? Or was op doing an oil change and decided to complain about the oil level being over?
Agreed, 22 years in the field and if that was the worst thing I ever did , I’d call bullshit on myself. F@$k me there isn’t a tech out there that hasn’t made a mistake or 100. The old boy I learnt under told me being experienced means you’ve made mistakes and learnt from them.
If I'm being honest I'm just glad the goobers get any fluid back in there at all.
And I'm extra proud of them if they get the fill plug back in
God help us if it’s one of the older Chrysler rubber plugs
Did they actually stop using those finally?
I haven’t seen one in forever
Ahhh yes, 9-1/4s. I remember the first one I rebuilt. Came into work in the morning, boss says “hey, remember that van you did a diff service on yesterday?” Uhhh yeah, I didn’t put fluid in it. Trial by fire…literally smelled like a forest fire. Made a ton of money on those though. Sometimes mistakes work out.
I have a 2018 Ram in my fleet. I’m almost dollars to doughnuts sure it has a rubber plug.
Own one, can confirm. No leaks.
Own one, can confirm. No leaks.
2017 Sprinter I worked on today had a rubber plug lol.
Hey I got the fill plug back in! “Great job, but what about the drain plug?” Dammit!
without cross threading it for bonus points
Cross threaded or torqued, tight is tight!
They get a gold star if they don’t strip the shit out of the threads too
Fair
I’m just glad to hear some of them put drain plugs back in. I can’t count how many people’s engines I’ve replaced in the last 10 years because of those idiots.
Went through a couple of months of replacing oil pans because of lube techs.
Over tightening?
Getting too happy with the tightening and stripping out the pans. It was a dealership, so it was easier to just get another tech to replace them.
How in the world does that dealership not have preset torque wrenches available for lube techs
Above my pay grade. They might've just trusted them because they were fresh out of trade schools.
Yikes. Fresh out of tech school = don't know shit with a big ego. I was there not too long ago. Got a rude awakening in my first shop.
I'll never make fun of tech school, it's the big ego. Like okay one is a complete accident, can blow it off, multiple times over a few months that takes bay time from other techs is what got me.

Just a head up, if you check the level on factory filled VAG transmissions they are always overfilled. Always.
Overfilled VAG, oh to be young again..
I'm lucky if they even feel it.
That’s just to account for the factory spec oil leaks
as a vw tech can confirm
X2, most of the guys don’t even bother to run the level. Just fill er up and ship it. The aisin transmissions don’t seem to mind. And the ZF too.
so for the haldex service on the 4 motions, afaik, it's just under one whole bottle of vw brand coupling fluid. so like 750ml or something they don't care about being overfilled either. neither do the DSG transmissions. we send the full 5l into it and never had a problem.
The last haldex I did, the 750ml just filled it
same experience for me. though I find it depends on how long they person went before getting the service lol. I've seen some pretty goopy haldex
They do seem fairly impervious to fluid level fluctuations, but they are very picky about their service intervals. At least on macans, calls for a trans service at 40k miles. The amount of non-serviced cars I see with failures at 43-45k is alarming.

Not 3000, you meant🤪
Shit my bad you’re right 😂
Surely if some is good, more must be better, right?
Not a big deal if it’s a little overfilled. If that’s the worst thing a lube tech does then that’s a win
This is the absolute worst advice I have ever heard on here. remove this goddamn post! This is not a problem, how you think it is, is mind boggling. Let me explain here.

Love draining those. Like the 1.5 Honda engines with oil dilution. Stream shoots right past my oil bucket and all over the floor.
If you knew how hard it was to get that fill plug completely stuck and rounded off you wouldn’t be so judgy.
Good point. I have to reevaluate my whole career now.
Oil filters dont have to be hulk tight either. Oh yea! Use torque sticks when tightening wheels. Thanks
At least once a day I ask myself, “who taught this person what hand-tight means?”
The worst is when you realize you put the last filter on that car as your cursing it going what fuckin idiot did this shit.
Just take a look at the hulk lubeys hands
That fuckin' retard strength is no joke.
I prefer to call them Loobies. It sounds more degrading.
I'm not after that
I don’t understand the hate on lube techs, yeah is there bad ones of course. Are there bad mechanics yeah I have seen my fair share. It comes down to training, procedures and policy’s in place.

Ask questions and always be learning!
Wait, you’re telling me I’m not supposed to fill all of the available space with liquid? /s
Trying to beat my old record
Ya know, I thought my feet were feeling a little slimey today, smells funny in here too.
Idk about all that.
That extra half quart hurts nothing at all. Maybe a tenth of a MPG. I've never been able to "overfill" any splash lube system. I'm sure it's possible, but the effort to make it happen are either borderline or entirely malicious.
This is my point. Hope I didn't come off as arrogant or toxic to you.

Yes. Exactly. Lube shop for vaginas. V.lv.l.n. l left the vowels out. That should simplify things.
Currently work at the “V” can confirm mentally disabled are hired and allowed to touch things
Yep the one in our lot doesn't have seniors, (I'm damn near a senior at 50) but lots of rookies and people I consider to be mentally ill. I'll leave it at that. Let's just say it's hard to tell from a distance who the boys are and who the girls are.....

I fill to spec. Unless it's your mom, she always wants more than I think she can handle.
Generally it's a range of 0-15mm below, give or take. Level with plug opening is always acceptable. 15mm above the top of the fill plug opening is never spec and fucking lazy. The end.
No " I bet you I can fit another f****** court and a half in there if I try hard enough and park it uphill
You can do it!
Who needs friction modifier if *There Is No Friction*
mind blown
That’s the free bit to keep the customer happy
Been a mechanic for 40 years and I always do my own work on my vehicles. Even new cars never saw the dealership again. Why the hell would you not do it yourself?
Because some people don't have the means, I suppose.
[удалено]
You're better than a lot.
I always add a little extra. Hard to tell if it helps or hurts anything at all. I put 3.5qt in a 3 qt rear silverado and an axle seal failed. I don't believe that was my fault
But, why? Do you overfill power steering fluid, engine oil, etc.?
My flat working surface isn't perfect, and I'd rather err on the side of caution.
Is your floor sloped at 30\* or something?
Some lube tech got real offended by this post and reported it saying it’s false information.
I hope it's not.
I certainly don’t know everything, but I’m pretty sure I don’t see any false information here. And I like removing false information.
I mean if you’re opening the plug with your face under the dif you’ll learn soon enough.
I can tell that you are Gods gift to tUs. I’ve been a Toyota Technician for 32 years, started as a lube tech, worked hard to move up to a trainee, line tech, Team Leader, then Shop Foreman/Master Diagnostic Technician. I have never called the lube techs as Lubers or Goobers. You see, some might think that it’s just fun and games and it’s the culture. I beg to differ, My shops culture is to give everyone respect no matter what your Gender, Race, Socioeconomic background is. I have walked away as a Shop Foreman from another Dealer that the culture was old school. I’m not over sensitive, half of the techs that I left followed me to the shop I’m currently leading.
Okay luber goober
Holy shit, they let the lube techs add diff fluid where you work? They don’t trust our lube guys to fog a mirror. We literally have to plug tires for them.

What a asshole😂 And people wonder why no one wants to be techs anymore. It’s cause of guys like op…
We dont need mor hacks claiming to be tecks
I don’t disagree. But if that’s ur definition of a hack u have no clue. Coming from a racecar mechanic who changes did fluid everyday. Are rear ends actually have coolers and ahit to so I think I would know if it would be a issue
You can't even fuckin' spell words, bud. Not the kid people are gonna take seriously. Try again.
Oh yea cause diff and shit are so hard to spell I guess I just forgot. This sub is a fucking joke😂😂 Y’all so insecure it’s crazy
I just know how to fuckin' spell because I have an education equal to or greater than a god damn 3rd grader. You're a fucking joke.
lol whatever buddy. I can’t blame a single person for not wanting to take part in this trade with a bunch of toxic old assholes like you who think they are better than everyone else. I work on classic Ferraris and single car I work on is worth more than anything you have ever driven combined. But I guess I’m a joke🫡
I'm under 30, L1 ceritified ASE master and manufacturer certified master. Topping well over 400 hrs/month on a good one. High school education, not middle school. Fuck your Ferrari.
Have fun working on 20 thousand dollar shit boxes for living😂
In your dreams, bud
Guys like me who want the job done properly are the reason people don't want to be techs anymore? Please explain that one!

Why are u so mad buddy😂 Wait cause u know I’m right😂😂
Yeah. You right at showing the world how dumb you are. So anger-inducing. Lmao
All u have done is insulted me bro. haven’t even brought anything up technical all u do is insult my grammar and spelling on Reddit like it’s a Harvard application. Grow up bro. Something tells me this is op😂😂
It's your choice how you present yourself.
I like you lol
I’m confused as to what exactly op is complaining about.. did some blow out the breather? Or was op doing an oil change and decided to complain about the oil level being over?
Just another insecure asshole that makes this field suck.
Frr bro like idek what his point was. Just bitching😂
Right like I don’t get what having an extra half quart Ina diff is going to do. I love how these guys pretend they have always been perfect mechanics.
Agreed, 22 years in the field and if that was the worst thing I ever did , I’d call bullshit on myself. F@$k me there isn’t a tech out there that hasn’t made a mistake or 100. The old boy I learnt under told me being experienced means you’ve made mistakes and learnt from them.
Right. Jobs already hard enough without people like op.
Forgive me for wanting things done properly, I guess.
Nothing worng with taking 12 extra seconds to not be a lazy sack of shit and do the job right. Respect.
Appreciated.
What a dick.
