When To Change Diff. Fluid
My Clutch Pack was replaced aurond 5200 miles ago and I have no issues as of yet (Knocking on Wood and Crossing Fingers) with the Diff. Rattling and Clunking. I want to know when and if should the fluid be changed and is it like doin an oil change after so many miles.
Thanks

I am in the process of changing both my tranny and rear end fluids with only 1,300 miles on the car. I will be going with RP Synchromax in the tranny and RP Max Gear 75w90 in the rear. I just wanted to get the factory "breakin" fluid out. I would say do whatever you think and makes you feel better. I seriously doubt you will hurt anything leaving it in, however, you won't hurt anything by changing it either

There is an updated TSB on this condition that utilizes the new DEXRON® LS gear oil, P/N 88862624.
