Toyota Venza AWD Rear Differential Pinion Seal Leaking 

That's never been an issue EVER!!

LOL!! That was good!! Thanks.

Thanks for your efforts.

@fizout You can wait indefinitely. Make sure to keep the oil level up and wait until you are ready to replace the seal.

@@torqued7601 Thanks. No concerns about oil getting into/onto the electromagnetic coupler? The video didn't show what its internal condition looked like after it was pulled off of the differential.

@@fizout My son's vehicle leaked for a while and no issues with the coupler. From what I remember the oil leaked out and did not build up inside the cavity

It's good to make it it because some cars have weights on the shaft

It took me a couple hours to replace it. The car I worked on had almost 100k miles. There was no play in the bearing. I would ask why they want to change it. At least have them show you.

@@torqued7601 Thanks. I was wondering why they're requesting to replace it. Mine has 194k km and i don't hear any noise from it. I'll definitely ask to look at it. Friend of mine who worked at Toyota in Cambridge told me that they had extended warranty 10 yrs/200k km. Thisxwas their weak point. His replacement of rear diff cost him over $2k.

@@torqued7601 So I had it fixed. I asked to look at the bearing and keep it. Once I have arrived for pickup, they said beating didn't have to be replaced. They quoted it because it can be cause for the seal to leak. Oh well. It played out a little bit better than they had thought.

Sorry, I didn't state that in the video. I did check the vent first before changing the seal. Thank You.

Thank you for making this video. Very much appreciated. Can you tell me where to find the torque specs for this job?

@nicopaletta9853 when I picked up the seal from Toyota, I asked about torque specs there.
