Those are well done.
I hate too much talk. I ALWAYS watch videos on 1.5-2x speed cause of how slow ppl are. Didn't have to with yours. Thankyou for that. Nice editing too.

What software did you use? Clean. Concise. Quick. Efficient.

Great videos!
You could never work at the dealer. pretty sure their rule for oil filters is, "hand tight, then 3 full turns!"
Seeing that transfer pump for the qt bottles made my day.

Always remove the fill-plug first, before anything, because if you can't get that out, then at least you can still drive the car.

Thank you for making these nice videos. Have you ever had any slipping or anything else bad happen when you've lifted your car 1 side at a time and used the 4 jack stands like this? I haven't lifted my 1LE many times yet. So i'm still kinda freaked out each time. And I haven't tried to lift the whole car at one time with the jack stands.

Thanks!

Is there a separate vent at the top of the diff? Your logic makes sense, but I also thought removing upper plug allowed the fluid to drain faster.

To be honest I've only ever lifted it that way a handfull of times but never had any issues. I mostly use my Quickjack now. Only time I use just jackstands are at the track, I always do 1 side then the other.

Ok, I appreciate it.
