<p dir="ltr">The amount to fill the rack is in the shop manual. Should you desire to drain the rack take off one wheel lower that side of the car as much as possible. <br>
On the other side raise it as much as possible then break the lower zip tie or clamp on the rack bellows. Allow enough time for the old oil to dribble out into a shallow pan possibly one of those old aluminum ones or non stick ones that your wife threw out like mine did.. Next AM replace tie remove high side outboard tie If you didn't do it already to make it drain faster. <br>
And refill. Replace ties put wheels back on and you're done. <br></p>
