Keep Rolling Smooth | How to Check AXLE OIL in a TRUCK | VALVOLINE

Описание: Keeping your truck in top shape means taking care of the essentials — and today, we're focusing on something critical for every driver: how to check the axle oil in your truck. 🛢️

➡️ In this video, you’ll learn step-by-step how to do it the right way:

✅ First, always make sure your truck is safely parked on a flat surface and the engine is completely turned off.
✅ Use a service pit or appropriate lifting equipment to safely access the axles underneath your truck.
✅ Locate the fill and drain plugs on each axle — it's important to check every axle individually, especially if your truck has multiple.
✅ Carefully remove the fill plug using the right tools; remember, if the truck was recently in use, the oil could still be hot, so take your time.
✅ Check the oil level using a simple wire or small probe — the oil should be sitting right at the lower edge of the fill hole.
✅ If the oil level is low, top up carefully with the correct oil specified by your truck manufacturer — but be cautious not to overfill, as that can cause additional pressure and potential leaks.

🛠️ Proper axle oil maintenance is crucial — it helps prevent mechanical breakdowns, protects against costly leaks, and extends the overall life of your truck's drive system.

🛻 Stay safe, stay ahead. Regular axle checks mean fewer surprises on the road and a smoother drive every time!
