Diff seepage???

Had my truck at the muffler shop today for an exhaust reroute and I got to inspect the underside in detail. Is this enough to be of concern? I was at the dealer recently and they said my truck didn't pop up on any recall lists, but this makes me wonder.....

 

Spray it off, see what happens. Dont worry about it. And if it ends up leaking, toyota should take care of it.


ETA professional opinion is that isn't a leak. Barely registers as a weep.

 

That's what I was planning on doing, I just didn't know what others who were in the recall were seeing with their vehicles. Thanks for the response.

 

On that Recall Page that was posted up, it said any Seepage was considered a Leak by Toyota.

 

mine looks like that,, parts on order. after my 10,000 service,, not on recall list, but parts ordered

 

Off road trucks aren't on the list but have the same problem. I have it.

 

+1 im in the same boat.

when I took my truck in for 10k service they told me it was not bad enough for them to do anything.
I mentioned on the paperwork it said anything including weeping is still considered a leak.

they checked the torque on the bolts and that was it.

I expect in another 6-8 months they will add the rest of our trucks to the recall list.
until then I plan to check my diff oil level every 10-15k miles.

 

Thanks a lot guys, I'll be heading into Toyota later this week to get the parts in order.

Not letting me open that on my phone, I'll have to try when I'm near a computer. Thanks.

 

my dealer didn't hesitate getting me a new gasket and hardware even though I'm not on the recall list. Nice thing is they wont ask to hold your truck.

 

Pretty sure I have it too going to double check after my 12 hrs of slaving.

 

Mine was on recall list took it in for first service but my rear was dry , tech retorqued the bolts , checked trans fluid , and greased the drive shafts said fittings took 5-8 shots and everything was good ... also there were no tacomas held hostage only one 16 used there with 25,228 miles for sale on the lot

 

Are you serious..?? they actually checked the tranny fluid..?? I did not think dealerships had that kind of training..!! AND he greased your zerks... Damn... Give that dealership a
thumbs-up" for being "normal" and really thinking for themselves.... Holy shit man..!

 

Yea actually had toyota techs working and looking over the truck not the fresh out of highscool kids

 

Our Third gens need "Depends" to handle all of this seepage

 

You got that problem too Smitty... I'm expected to have that issue at 69ish, but you is a lot younger than me... Might want to get that checked out, eh..?
