How to replace the oil seal in a Honda Pilot's differential housing?

Raise the rear of the vehicle and securely support it on jackstands. Place the transaxle in Neutral with the parking brake off. Block the front wheels to prevent the vehicle from rolling. Remove the driveaxle(s). Pry the seal from the differential housing. Using a seal installer or a large deep socket as a drift, install the new oil seal. Drive it into the bore squarely and make sure it is completely seated. Lubricate the lip of the new seal with multi-purpose grease, then install the driveaxle. Be careful not to damage the lip of the new seal. Check the differential lubricant level and add some if necessary to bring it to the appropriate level.

Honda Pilot Differential Seal

Honda Pilot Differential Seal protects the SUV's front, rear, and center differentials by locking the vital gear oil inside and keeping any dust or water that could grind the gears from entering. This Differential Seal ring of synthetic rubber is located at the axle flange where it grips tight so pressure and speed changes never allow fluid to be pushed out. Early Pilot years were built with a simple lip seal for both open and limited-slip units, and later versions retained the shape but were switched to heat-resistant fluorocarbon for extended life. When a Differential Seal leaks, bearings lose oil, which is why drivers should listen for any clank when turning, check every 3,000 miles, and take action at the first sign of seepage. Replacement involves prying the old ring, tapping in a new Differential Seal flush, and refilling with 75W-90, which is made easier by Honda's having made the Pilot axle accept the part without full teardown. Regular Honda schedules flag the Differential Seal for 60,000-mile checks in all Pilots, but many Honda owners catch trouble early on via the oil mist on the hub.
