Stupid Question about Rear Diff.
Alright, stupid question incoming....
I have a 2017 Camaro V6 2LT Auto. I saw this in my manual, I'm at 17,400....never changed the rear diff fluid...is this necessary for an daily driver? I do not exactly see it in the maintenance schedule.... Thank you, Christian. |

Some also propose that the initial fluid be flushed early to get rid of wear-in contamination, but I am not experienced enough to confirm or deny this for your 2LT A8, hopefully others will chime in and advise.

I changed mine a 1000 miles. There was metal in the magnetic plug and the fluid looked dirty. I am glad I changed mine. Cost was 20.00 for fluid.

I only did my engine oil at 1000 miles but I plan on doing the transmission and rear diff fluid as soon as it warms up outside and I feel like spending more time in the garage.
