Is Volume Correct?

Are you sure about your volumes? The aFe website mentions a stock 4 quart lube capacity and their diff cover capacity is 5 quarts. You mention 5 1/4 liters which is about 5 1/2 quarts.

Thanks for responding,, i re-read the instruction manual , and your correct
5 Quarts to fill to the bottom of the axle tube ..And 6 to 7 if you have Limited slip....Which i do not have

So we should be good at 5 Quarts . i just check it again and it right at the top of the sight glass ..

Thank- you
