DIFFERENTIAL OIL LEVEL - SERVICE TIP

APPLICABLE MODEL(S)/VINS

2006 MX-5

DESCRIPTION

Differential oil does not leak from the fill plug hole when checking oil level. This is not a cause for concern. During production, each vehicle is filled with 24 oz. (0.7L) of fluid (+/- 3.4 oz. (0.1L)). This calculates to approximately 12 mm from the oil fill plug hole.

NOTE:

^ Damage to the vehicle will not occur if the oil level is topped off to the oil fill plug hole.
