2nd Gen DIfferential fluid change.

I found a DIY for 1st gen DIff fluid change, how different is doing it on our cars?

I have a PDF of the cars full manual(2100 pages) and I searched for it, couldn't find the exact location of it or torque specs when I actually find the drain and fill bolts.

Any help would be appreciated.

we don't have a differential.

Use Honda Z1 tranny fluid 3x3 change and you're golden.

we do have a differential, but it's no different than changing trans fluid, unlike RWD cars where you have to change the oil on that.
