What is Grease Monkeys Differential Service?
The old contaminated gear oil is removed from the differential gear box. We replace it with new gear oil that contains the correct additives to help keep the seals, gears, and bearings operating properly. What are the benefits of a Differential Service? • Extends the life of the differential. • Provides protection against rust and corrosion in the differential. • Minimizes the effects of oxidation deterioration due to heat and high speed driving. • Reduces wear and spalling (gear flaking). • Minimizes high speed foaming of fluid which causes lower lubrication efficiency. • Maintains vehicle warranty requirements. How often should a Differential Service be performed? Grease Monkey recommends this service in accordance with the vehicle manufacturer’s recommended service intervals, or as special circumstances require – such as water contamination. Your Grease Monkey technician will check the resource manual for the proper service interval for your specific vehicle. Preventive Maintenance.
