How much ATF drains out if you pull the rear driveshaft?


Recommended Posts

Rear output shaft seal has a very slow drip leak, been that way for years, about time to replace it.

 

2002 OBW H6 VDC. Any Subaru will probably be in the same ballpark. I'll jack the rear of the vehicle up so more fluid will stay in that way too.

 

A quart? A bunch of quarts?

 

Been awhile since I've done it and I usually had the nose way up so more comes out.

somewhere between. In park the fluid is not far above the pan
if it's not far above pan then with the rear up in the air, fluid up front - that rear seal is already above the pan so might be possible for very little to come out?

 

i'll probably just drain some, simple enough, i just didn't have any on hand tonight.
