On my current 2014 Touareg just drained the front differential and refilled with correct VW gear oil.
I filled until it started to run out the fill hole.
Now it is making an odd sound under acceleration, sort of like gear rumble or a very low pitched bearing howl. Until this drain and refill the front diff has not made a sound that was abnormal. The last ‘14 had a bearing go so I’m familiar with the sound it made. This is not the same.
Wondering if I over filled it. Couldn’t find a definitive spec on capacity.
Thanks for info that someone can share.
