Changed the front and rear diff fluids, cleaned the steel pan and replaced the torque to yield bolts. Thanks to a fellow X5 owner, we did the job without any challenges or busted knuckles. Easy job have lots of sockets, extensions, flex handle ratchets, and box-end wrenches (16mm).
Takes longer to get the front two bolts and nuts off the plate then it does to clean, drain, refill and rebolt everything back again.
Used the old stand by fluid pump from Lincoln Model 615 to push in the new clean stuff. Makes this job easy.
