Sounds like you received a service advisory from either Toyota or your dealer,drop by your dealer with the letter and have them explain it to you.Do not try to fix anything yourself as an 09 Toyota should be under warranty and you wont have to pay anything for this service concerning potential loss of grease.

If at all possible take a picture of the LH axle and post it here so we can see it. I myself do not trust anyone to inspect/repair my vehicle. Maybe they are right maybe not. Frankly in my experience they cant be trusted!

Dear Bronsin,

I am not expert in doing repair .I always trust only Toyota AUTHORISED Dealer -Company Name :Abdul LATEEF JAMIL & co.

When i had a look on the LH shaft there is no leakage also the boot was covered with dust cover.
Can i drive with this problem or not ?

if it is major problem ,then Dealer would have informed to repair immediately ?
