FWD RX350 question
Does my 2009 FWD RX350 have both a Transaxle and a Differential? I am planning to change the oils.

The front diff is in the transaxle and shares the fluid (WS) with it. No gear oil is used on the FWDs.

Basically like all fwd vechiles.....aka transaxle= all in one, vs if you had a awd= transmission, transfer case & a rear diff......
