Changing the diff fluid and getting the factory fill replaced with clean fluid well before 50k miles is always a very good thing.

I had my diff and brake fluid changed before 30K miles just to be safe, tranny fluid was already done as well as coolant

Trying to understand why changing the diff fluid would make it shift better.

He did not state such but I assume that the OP meant to say he changed the tranny fluid as well.
