Hi all,
2007 STi Hawk.
I feel like changing my rear diff oil, not been done in probably 3 or 4 years....or so.
Looking at my owners manual, this will be the one I need :

However, will 1 litre be enough?
Also, would I need new washers for the drain and fill plugs?
******Edit, found in the manual that the oil capacity is 1 litre
, So, drain and fill plug washers needing to be replaced when I change it?******
Many Thanks,
Matt

Thanks Jay, yes saw that tip on Youtube. Just watched another video where the bloke does the draining first without touching the filler plug....brave man! lol
Ok, but the book states the 75/90 oil in my post, is my rear diff LSD then?
