    Just pull the fill plug next time you get back from driving and take a look... If its clean and slippery, I wouldn't be too worried about exact color. If its milky Id change it out and find the leak

    You can reuse crush washers too, not the end of the world

    Yeah, I will do that. But it never was milky. It was just green , a dark green. I’ll see if I can access my deleted photos. Because I did take a picture of it. It was just a long time ago.

    Get the Lexus fill and drain plugs with a nut head while you're at it. I did and I'm glad I did it.

    Hey guys, off topic, but I am greasing my zerk fittings today on my front shaft, using the red and tacky grease. Is this the best to use? What do you guys use? Going to pick some up after work.

    I think water got into the differential. Check the breather. Have you been in any streams where the water would seep in?
