Question C4 front differential oil change: how to, what with?

Going to be in an inspection pit under the car soon, and this is something on my list, since my PPI showed a slow front diff weep..err..4 years ago.

I've searched and not come up with much - so its either blindingly obvious, or its something that no-one does much

Hey Johnny,
Yes, it's an easy thing to do. Hardest part is probably removing the 10mm nuts and bolts to remove the undertray! Just undo the filler plug - it's up high on the driver's side if I remember correctly. Then off with the drain plug! I used the same non-synthetic stuff - I think 70w-90 - that I used in my 5 speed.

Garrett's right, it's really easy. It takes much less fluid to fill the front diff than it does the tranny, also, I think about a quart and a half.
