Quick question...where do you find the bolt to check the differential gear oil? Also, I have checked my cvt/tranny fluid with that long dip stick but where/how do you actually add more fluid if ever its low? Sorry have not had time to get the service manual yet.
Thanks all.

Which diff? The front uses the tranny fluid, I don't think there is any seperate plug/sump at all. The three seperate drive line gear oil systems are the tranny & front diff, the transfer case, and the rear diff & AWD clutch pack.

As to how to fill it I don't know off the top my head, I'll check the manual tomorrow if somebody hasn't beaten me to it...

I think you add tranny fluid through the dipstick tube.

As for the gear oil, there are two plugs - a drain plug (on the bottom) and a fill plug (farther up). The correct level for the gear oil is to the "top" of the fill plug (basically fill it until fluid spills out).
