How to Service the Differential Cover on Ford Taurus X?

The first step to service the differential housing cover is putting the vehicle into neutral on a hoist. You must dissolve the exhaust insulator that covers the differential housing with soapy water if it is present. Position a proper drain pan beneath the differential then eliminate the 10 bolts holding the rear differential cover. The machined areas on the rear axle housing and differential housing cover require cleaning before covering the inside of the rear axle to avoid contaminant entry. A fresh continuous bead of clear silicone rubber must be applied to the differential housing cover while installation happens within 15 minutes of application or the new sealant needs replacement. Fasten the cover along with its 10 bolts until they reach a torque of 23 Nm (17 lb-ft). To proceed with filling the rear axle with 1.15L (2.43 pt) of lubricant, you should maintain a level that sits 3-5mm (0.118-0.196 in) below the filler hole clearance before reinstalling then tightening the filler plug to 29 Nm (21 lb-ft). Attach the exhaust insulator to its position by the differential housing cover if possible.
