Diff fluid change interval
[ http://www.elcovaforums.com/forums/s...ad.php?t=20941 ]
I changed my front and rear diff at 10k miles and found the rear diff oil noticeably black while the front diff was not bad at all. What does the manual say? I couldn't find any clear answers, but I'm glad I changed mine when I did because the rear diff looked pretty bad, and I think others here have found the same thing.
Whadayallthink?

I have a 2006 (shorter warranty period) and plan to check mine every 10k because my truck sees significant time offroad. I've had two repairs to the rear diff already and I'm not sure what the cause was, so better to be cautious.

But '07 vehicles have a 5 yr/100K powertrain that incudes axles.

Shouldn't we be concerned that many of us are finding a significant difference in the condition of the rear diff fluid compaired to the front diff at 10K miles or less?
And how many folks have twice or three times as many miles and have never checked theirs??
