Could be over due for the differential fluid to be changed also - unless that's what you already had done.
Yes its overdue for a change, does the differential have a drain plug or does it have to be pumped out.
Drain plug. Looks like the transmission drain plug, only a bit further back. You may need a pump to get the new fluid in though - fill hole is sorta way up in back. Some have used a funnel from above with a long tube. I use a pump from below. Mine is the next "Generation" Camry and it actually calls for ATF in the differential. Old fluid was badly degraded and discolored, even though prior owner's reciepts showed fluid change - parts and labor. Even noticed a bit more power after new fluid went in.
Hi all,can someone advice what type of oil 4 differiential. my car is a 93 camry 4 cyld. Thanks

My 1994 4 cyl manual says DEXRON II. Same as transmission fluid. You might look at the manual or sneak a peak at Haynes manual in store.
a 91 takes trans fluid
