Hello,

This vehicle uses 80W-90 gear oil for both of the front and rear differential.
The front differential has a capacity of 1.7 litter (1.8 quart) and the rear differential capacity is 2.4 litter (2.5 quart).

The fluid can be changed easily using a oil suction tool.

Here are couple of helpful guides:

Please let me know of any questions.
Thank you.
