Fluid change

[NFLPATS]

Quick question on the fluid changes...

1. When is the transmission fluid supposed to be changed?
2. When is the differential fluid need to be changed?

I've found a link to change the transmission however I haven't found anything on the differential change. Would like a DIY

Thanks

Generally my understanding is that if you drive under harsh conditions then at 20,000 miles have the fluid changed

I change mine every 2-3 years regardless of miles.

I don't think you can go wrong at that schedule. I also do the brake flush every two years regardless of the mileage. Another fluid that takes a beating is the radiator fluid. Again not too expensive and probably worth changing out. I am changing out my oil every year even though it is still at 70%. It gives me a reason to drive the car.
