Have you guys seen this? Do you really need to swap in and out brake cooling rings, 15w50 oil, dot4 brake fluid and rear axle fluid (diff fluid?) every time?
Has anyone seen instructions or videos for changing the diff fluid on the Z51 car? I hear there's two separate places with the eLSD.

I run the 15w50 oil during the warmer months. When not going to the track during the winter I change to the 5w30. I do always take it easy on the car until the oil temp comes up.
The high temp brake fluid stays in all the time. But I will bleed the brakes fairly often.
I plan to change my diff and trans fluid out very soon. Will probably do this once a year. Dealership said it is a simple swap on the fluids.
You didn't ask about the alignment, but I leave this alone as well. I run -1.5 degrees on the front. and -1.25 on the rear. Zero toe front, .06" in on the rear. This is a compromise between street and track. I may add a little more negative camber to the front. Tire wear is good at this setting between the street miles and track days. The rear camber is at the max, you can't get what the PDF says to run on the rear.

You can get the rear camber if you remove the washers between the UCA and the body.
